The layout of QuickBooks Online can be difficult for the traditional QuickBooks desktop user to navigate when transitioning from the desktop version. In the recent years, QuickBooks has introduced a great solution to this issue by creating a downloadable app which allows users to use QuickBooks Online in a desktop-like atmosphere. The free app, QuickBooks Online App for Windows or Mac, is in early development stages, but looks very promising.
A Few Benefits of QuickBooks Online
- Company information can be accessed from a PC or Mac computer, tablet, and cell phones, with complete compatibility.
- All of your company’s information will be backed up and secured in the QuickBooks Cloud.
- Access to third party apps which allows for automatic updates to your QuickBooks account for information such as employee timesheets, PayPal transactions, credit card transactions, etc.
- It allows employees to enter data into the apps without having access to your confidential company information.
- More than one user is allowed to work in your company file at once, allowing your accountant to access your company remotely without transferring files back and forth.
- Clients using an existing QuickBooks desktop version can import data directly into QuickBooks Online for an easy transition.
- There is no need to buy software to update to new QuickBooks versions as the online version automatically updates and is covered under the monthly fee.
