Bookkeeper: Easily Manage Your Business Finances

Pleased with product. Value for money. Some kinks but they can be worked out. Advise backup before you try new options in case it doesn't work.

The idea of saving $500+ on quickbooks sounded fantastic and to good to be true. Turns out it is. Between a doctor, book keeper, and office manager, we couldn't get it up and running. Every time the software is opened it asks for an update, choose your account or the test account. Importing from QB takes a free download patch, that does something, but we never could get it imported and up to work with. Tried to add another account to see if we could use it without the data import, and lost all the basic set up info we had worked to get in the first place. I realize that might have been expected...but if all my info can be wiped out that quickly, don't want it. At that point, I had learned my lesson and quit.

I have a small business with one part-time employee to keep track of, needed the inventory, payroll and invoicing that comes with this. Can not afford to spend $$ each month on one of the big boys so bought this one to upgrade from my old Bookkeeper. The website said the latest included 2020 & 2021 tax tables. The box I bought does not say what version you have, you have to install it to find out what it is. The installation failed with transferring the old data & eventually I had to totally remove both programs and reinstall the new one & then laboriously rebuild all the 2020 information. When I started 2021 I found the tax tables were not here for that year, I would have to buy it. Since I bought it in March of 2021, I would think it would be there. Support says no, my version doesn't have the 2021 tax tables. This is the version that is not mentioned anywhere on the box. I can buy the tables for $30...which, since I paid $36 for this two months ago seems excessive...for one part time employee. Carrying on, I made out an invoice to a customer, who paid right away. The invoice is for $76.83, customer paid $76.83, Bookkeeper changed the invoice to $75.85 and gave the customer a $.98 credit. Where did this come from? I have checked & rechecked all the figures. Even paying from the original invoice it changes the figure when I try to enter payment. Still waiting to hear from Tech support...but trying to find a work around. If anyone knows of another bookkeeping system for small businesses that actually work and are not full of unpleasant surprises please let me know. And, by the way, the included HELP files are generally useless. If you are in a section working & in doubt, there is a HELP button, which does not take you to the topic you are on but to the beginning of the help and the introduction. The search is a joke & not a funny one at that.

Works well for my business

I was hoping to ditch quickbooks accounting program for this. On appearance it looks like they nailed a good presentation. But boy was I mistaken when trying to figure out simple billing or customer information. Without going into alot of detail, its just not user friendly and they designed it to be too complicated. I did review the tutorial, called their support #, and really wanted this to be my easy bookeeping system. I'm a Qbooks pro user, I understand setting up accounts, but this program for me seemed like some software engineers wrote a bookeeping program and never field tested it on the audience it was intended for.

I bought this to replace quicken. It is different and takes a bit to get used to it but does everything I need to manage my bookkeeping for personal and business finances. It is much less expensive and works..

Had issue with importing from Quickbooks 2012 but downloaded to excel, made text file and it imported. Now learning how it works. Don't use most features since we are a HOA and only need to invoice owners, receive payment and pay for services. Looks like it has capability to do what I need once I figure out how to make it work properly. With nearly all the other software having only subscription based software, this looks to be a reasonable solution.

Attractive price does not make up for a program that doesn't work. I have been an accountant for years and find this program is sorely lacking. You get what you pay for, obviously. It is cumbersome, counterintuitive, not user friendly. They have a series of youtubes that are barely adequate to even help you get set up. When I bought it, I was searching for a program to replace MS Money that I loved and had used for over twenty years, albeit it was an unsupported program. Tip here: I found a free "sundown" version of my beloved MS Money and downloaded it and it is a great replacement. Search online ms money plus sundown download.

This is a good accounting program but unfortunately did not work for what I wanted it for. I returned this item and had absolutely no problem with returning it.

This is a very bad program and can not link credit card charges to vendor. if you pay by cash only or just write checks would be okay./ you can dont like sub accounts. I give this program a -10 points

Doesn't support Canadian organizations? So why would it be offered for sale in Canada?

yourself for a good lunch instead. Interface sort of friendly BUT.. cannot export data to open office or MS office.

just delivered in lest two 5 minutes. TOTAL jUNK Will not load, all extras will load but programme junk, DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME
