QuickBooks Desktop Premier vs. Yooz

We really think that ANY typical business would be a reasonable fit for QuickBooks Desktop Premier. While not necessary, even a comparatively unexperienced accounting person could look at the "Home" screen and follow their nose thru typical daily accounting processes without much detailed knowledge. Reporting is simple, looking up customer info and prior transactions is simple, looking up vendors and prior payments is simple... all in all, quite straightforward. I really can't think of an instance where it would be 'less appropriate'.

Yooz is perfect for reoccurring invoices, such as utilities, as you can search by account# to show a list of entries allowing consistency across the board. Color coding can be used to differentiate between utilities or responsibilities. This also helps when exporting specific items. I can select one by one or by group.

• Support for older versions of QuickBooks ends after three years, then users must purchase the newest version at full price. Renewals should be deeply discounted for existing users.
• I would like to see better in-product inventory tracking, so we can choose LIFO or FIFO rather than the ambiguous "average cost" method.
• I would like to be able to assign payroll taxes to jobs for better job costing.

• when exporting we have to change the total column's to numbers or it will export with the incorrect totals.
• Yooz needs to not allow itself to add a line to the total and change what you are posting. instead it needs to freeze you from moving on.

Because we have been extremely happy with the product and our organization tends to be creatures of habit. We rarely leave a product that works this well for the latest and greatest. Typically we follow the "if it's not broken, don't fix it rule". While QB does make changes we typically just roll with it. If we do find something we don't like we work through it until we fully understand its functionality.

I love Yooz and everything it has brought to our organization!

We switched to a more "robust" software program with the hiring of a new CFO. The migration of historical data and ancillary information has been cumbersome and riddle with errors and issues. In hindsight much of what the new software program was touted to accomplish is not come to fruition. QB Desktop Premier was sufficient for the organization needs

This is very reliable software, the desktop version is fast. If there is a problem, it is most likely on your own hardware!

This is where QuickBooks falls short. Many times my staff has had questions that have not been able to get resolved easily with a chat or call. I personally have had more general questions that have not been answered easily as well. I think QuickBooks needs to provide the resources of having readily accessible help in order to make it simpler to get solutions.

It is important to do your research. There are tutorial videos online that could help new user of this accounting system. These tutorials are straightforward and easily understandable.

QuickBooks Premier handles most of my business functions efficiently in one package. It is not my "everything." I use Replicon for time rather than QuickBooks. I don't want my WIP data interfering with my accounting. I use PaySimple for it's web interface and back office processing. I don't have security issues since I don't have any credit card data in my possession. With today's identity theft environment, I have to protect myself as much as I can. Not having credit card data in my accounting software lets me sleep much better at night. Quicken will do basic accounting but does not have all the double entry accounting systems contained in QuickBooks. QuickBooks Online does much of the basic business functions but I don't like the pricing structure. As a professional accountant, that is very important to me. Bill.com provided a good service but the ability of QuickBooks to add bills and receipts to transactions makes it redundant.

Chrome River is slow and full of inconsistencies. Capturing invoices is confusing, as you have to assign approvers and coding at that time. No time to save it and research those details. It has multiple screens labeled inbox but are for different stages in the approval process that aren't specified unless you go into the invoice and review. When you go to exit the invoice, it takes you back to the main menu instead of the inbox you were currently working in. It is live, but the updates are every 10-15 minutes as opposed to immediately.
