Quickbooks is the leading accounting package for small businesses, but using it can be a challenge. It is a powerful tool that can be used by a small business owner for basic management, while giving your CPA access to a full general ledger. While this classic application can feel a little long in the tooth, it’s feature rich, letting it compete with the newer, cloud offerings. With the new App Marketplace and APIs, cloud based offerings can integration with the desktop application through Intuit’s cloud based service, giving you a hybrid system. Of source, this hybrid solution requires Quickbooks to be on an Internet connected computer.
