Compare QuickBooks Products - Intuit

QuickBooks is a popular accounting software program, but it can be a sizable investment for your company, depending on what version you select.

QuickBooks Online:

If you do not operate your business from a traditional office, you may appreciate the benefits of this version. Although the product is based entirely online, it is safe and secure to use and allows you to work on your company file from any location with Internet access.

QuickBooks Pro:

For startup businesses that are just getting the ball rolling, this is the version QuickBooks suggests. When you set up the software, it provides tips to help you get started and will walk you through importing contacts from an email account or Excel file.

QuickBooks Premier:

This version is well-suited for the business that is not only established but is growing as well. It enables you to modify reports to your specific industry and type of business, such as contractor, retail or nonprofit.

QuickBooks Enterprise Solutions

As the most complete version, QuickBooks Enterprise Solutions is geared toward the well-developed business that needs advanced inventory management, the ability to create complex reports and increased options for employees' permissions within the software.

QuickBooks for Mac

If you prefer to operate your business using Mac computers, there is a QuickBooks version for you as well. QuickBooks for Mac offers all of the features of QuickBooks Pro for Windows except for the ability to create an accountant copy. It also provides many features specific to Macs, such as syncing with Mac OS address books and iCall.
