HIRE AN ACCOUNTANT!!   November 21, 2002

The telephone support is much too expensize to use for small businesses like the one I have. The e-support is a hassle because it requires wasting even more time than I have to give. The amount paid for Quickbooks plus trying to speak to a real live person plus the COST of speaking to anyone is far more expensive than hiring a CPA to take care all of this. If I knew what I know now, I would have avoided Quickbooks like the plague.


Thinking of upgrading?? Don't!   July 9, 2002

If you like your current Quickbooks bank statement reconciliation, forget the upgrade. It vanishes, and you get an extended register instead. The package says all former reports plus updated ones, but call support and ask for the old one and the response is, "That isn't a valid question."
Currently running payroll on your version of Quick Books? You can't even use the one in QuickBooks Premier unless you pay extra to subscribe to their services.
Once you upgrade, none of your data will work on the earlier copy of Quick Books. You are toast.


Rip Off   May 5, 2002
Having used QB 99 for 3 years and being very satisfied, I recently upgraded to QB Premium 2002. As soon as the upgrade was in place, I discover that I must subscribe to the Basic Payroll Service ($ [money]annually) to view any of my payroll history. None of the payroll reports work without this service! All I want is a current tax table to compute payroll taxes for my 6 employees. $[money] a year is obvious price gouging to provide a simple data file that used to cost $[money] a year. Furthermore, QB Premium 2002 constantly needs Internet access to perform certain functions, which gives me the eery feeling that Intuit is scanning my QB files.
