Wrong plan for our business

A subscription business with genuine revenue recognition needs outgrows even the top QuickBooks plan, and we spent a year paying premium prices while working around a gap it could not close.

Handles our volume well

The reporting and automation are excellent once you invest the setup time. There is a learning curve on the more powerful features, but the payoff is real for a growing team.

Worth the upgrade for the reporting

The step up from Plus was seamless, no retraining, just more capability, better support and reporting we can finally build ourselves.

Project profitability we can trust

The dedicated account team actually knows our setup, and a tricky reconciliation that would have taken three calls on the old plan got solved in one.

Familiar and far more capable

We grew into most of it and it has earned its place. Project profitability, custom roles and reporting are all a clear step up. Value is the only reason it is not five stars.

More users with real control at last

We invoice hundreds of clients a month and batch invoicing turned a full day task into a quick one, with the automation handling reminders so nobody has to remember.

Wrong plan for our business

We were pushed onto Advanced before we needed it, use a fraction of the features, and the premium price for capacity we never touch simply does not stack up for a business like ours.

The right step up from Plus

We ran the lower plan for years and spent every month end in Excel building the reports the board wanted. Advanced put those reports in the system and month end went from days to an afternoon.

Custom reporting got us out of spreadsheets

We hit the user limit and the reporting ceiling at the same time and Advanced solved both without a disruptive migration. It is more of a good product rather than a different one.
