4 out of 5 stars QuickBooks Pro 2008   May 17, 2008
I purchased this item for a fourth off the cost of walmarts price. I'm pleased with my purchase. I researched this and other similar products in the same catagory. This one fits me needs best for business and personal use. I used the online version for a year before this purchase. It was $10 a month. I was pleased with it, but it wouldn't let me set up more than one company without a higher monthly rate. I'm controling my business from one location and one computer know. So the online version is no longer needed. The best advise I can give is to do as must reasearch as possible before purchasing any item or service. It's better to learn from others than to learning the hard way. Trust me.

I purchased this product to upgrade my 2005 version, which I Loved. After following the onscreen instructions, I attempted to intergrate my customers from my 2005 bus. to 2008 quick book pro. The end result was, I cannot open my old data. It is lost in my computer. I called tech. support, they told me I had to pay $75.00 f-ing dollars for help. I paid it to talk to some idiot that could not even speak english. After two hours on the phone with him, he disconnected me. I tried using on line help, but what a joke. This product has great potential, but they farmed out the support to a bunch of dam non-english speaking forginers. Dam, I am mad. Now I have to pay $300.00 more to have a geek come to my house and fix this mess. Do not buy this product!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Erockkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk



5 out of 5 stars Upgrade Was Worth It   May 9, 2008

I upgraded from Quickbooks Pro 2006 to Quickbooks Pro 2008. The upgrade was easy and I'm already using some of the new features in the new version.

Quickbooks has more than enough features for my business. My only complaint is I have to purchase a full new version every 3 years or lose features I use.


3 out of 5 stars Good product with a couple disappointments   May 4, 2008
  3 out of 3 found this review helpful

Quickbooks is a good product that will improve the efficiency of my business, but I am disappointed in two aspects of the product. First is the import from Excel feature. I had assumed that everything I would need to import information from an Excel file would be built into Quickbooks Pro. Unfortunately I had to spend $150 on third party software to accomplish this task. I will say that Quickbooks does a good job of setting up a marketplace for its trusted third party vendors, and most of the vendors offer free trials of their products making it likely you will find something to do exactly what you need it to do.

My second disappointment is the lack of formatting available for invoices. Many of the invoices my business sends out are multiple pages, and a 5 to 7 page invoice is not uncommon. I wish I could format the way the page number displays at the bottom (such as "page 3 of 7" as opposed to Quickbooks default of "page 3"). Also, while the total price of the invoice does not display on each page the blank box for it does which is pretty tacky in my opinion.

I probably could have spent more on software that would have worked exatly the way I want it to, but I had severe budget constrains as upper management was under the impression that Excel was the best program to handle our bookkeeping needs. Finally, In spite of its pitfalls I will say that Quickbooks Pro is a great improvement (and a relatively inexpensive one) over our previous accounting "system."
