 Easily the best Quickbboks ever October 15, 2007
Gary Gauvin (Dallas TX)
3 out of 5 found this review helpful
I'm biased because I've been using Quickbboks since old DOS days and I beta tested this year's product.
As a tax preparer I see over a hundred clients' QuickBooks files every year. The new help system and tutorial videos will make it easier for my clients who are just getting started. The new "Send a Copy to my Accountant" feature alone will be worth the price of the upgrade for many users.
Gotta love a product that makes life so easy for users that don't want to know accounting but still keep control of everything financial.
 QB 2008 Premier - Pro Services Edition October 16, 2007

Based on the beta testing, Intuit has improved QB again! The nicest feature for me is the new invoice creation tasks. You are now able to create an invoice from billable time w/o creating the invoice and selecting each individual time line. You can now select ranges prior to the creation. Kudos.
The downside for me (but a small one) - Same old UI. I wish it had a more quicken like interface and direct connections to the banks. Yes, I know they can download transactions, but the transactions still go through a 3rd party I believe and they don't show up on the bank's web site immediately.
Just as user friendly, but looks way different than 2005 January 2, 2008

We have used Quickbooks for years, but used 2005 Pro, our accountant told us we needed to upgrade to 2008. So we did, it looks so different, but once you get in and begin to use it, it is pretty much the same. Amazon is awesome, always has the cheapest prices!! they can't be beat on hardly anything, especially books and computer software!
Excellent and essential for Small Business October 15, 2007

I have a consulting practice which is incorporated as S-Corporation. I have been using Quickbooks since 1997-1998, and I do my own accounting and Business Tax preparation using TurboTax for business. These two software go hand-in-hand and it is very easy to prepare your own taxes.
If you have never done any accounting previously, using Quickbooks or any other accounting package may appear to be intimidating initially. I was very intimidated when I had to do accounting. I am a computer professional and didn't know anything about accounting. I compared two accounting software during the period 1997-1998, and I selected Quickbooks since it was less intimidating and contained less accounting jargons. Also it shared some features with Quicken, with which I was familiar. That tilted my decision towards Quickbooks.
After starting to use Quickbooks, I never regret buying it. I learned a lot of new things about accounting, and many ways to save taxes, which I couldn't have done otherwise. After using Quickbooks for a few months, I became very confident of handling the accounts for my small business. I never used the services of an accountant. If I need any financial information about my company, Quickbooks has that information and I can easily pull up the information very fast using it's various reports and charts. Quickbooks saved me a lot of accounting labor and keeps me out of any trouble with the IRS.
If you haven't started using Quickbooks, please buy a copy and start using it. It will save you a lot of money in many ways. It will teach you how to save money by giving you the whole picture of business accounting and how it is linked to Tax preparation and tax savings. Tax-saving is not to be done during March when Tax returns are due with IRS. Instead "Tax-saving" is a year-long process and Quickbooks will help you plan ahead.
I also use Quickbooks to keep track of accounting for a non-profit corporation with which I am closely involved. It can prepare nice reports for the non-profit corporation's finances.
I started with Quickbooks during year 1997. Since then, each new version has improved features. But the price tag is also going high. I have beta tested the new Quickbooks-2008 and it impressed me. I strongly recommend Quickbooks-2008 for small business owners and also for small non-profit corporations. Another noteworthy feature is its multi-user capability, and it will be very handy if more than one user is handling the accounts.
Still the best October 19, 2007

I have been using Quicken and QuickBooks since the DOS days and they continue to be the state of the art for what I call the "non-accountant" user. I have beta tested I don't know how many versions now and every new release adds more and more useful features. The latest version has an enhanced interface, better integrated help system and leverages the internet better than ever, to mention a few of the many improvements. The tight integration with TurboTax is a big time saver every year as well. If my retired mother can handle doing the "books" for her condo association with QB it can work for anyone!
