QuickBooks is a great accounting solution for small businesses and start-ups, but it wasn’t designed to serve the needs of growing organizations. As a result, if you’ve been using QuickBooks as your business has grown, you begin experiencing some of these challenges:
- – Whether it’s avoiding upgrades because you can’t afford to deal with the disruption to your business or a constant concern over data security, server failures, malware, and faulty backups, an aging QuickBooks solution can cause quite a distraction for your day-to-day business.
- – There are several ways that an outdated QuickBooks system can hinder or even prevent sales, especially with the ways that buying behavior is changing that the increasing demands this is putting on businesses and their systems.
- – The limitations of QuickBooks often cause users to look to other systems and solutions to manage accounting activities.
- – If data is managed in multiple spreadsheets, the information in them is not real-time and can’t be accessed on-demand. You can’t get visibility across your organization if your data is in multiple systems and if your system freezes, then your data freezes too.
- – With QuickBooks, you lack access to analytics, clear audit trails, and customer data, keeping your communications disjointed and damaging your ability to capitalize on new opportunities.
