 Professional Level Accounting Software February 25, 2008

This software is a professional level tool for persons educated and trained as accountants. Not for novices or small business owners trying to do their own accounting work.
great software!! February 3, 2008

Peachtree is awesome. I've used it for years!! I just tried quickbooks pro 2008...and I hate it. I can't imagine why anyone would use it over Peachtree...it must be the promotion, because it's certainly not the product. I'm staying with Peachtree Complete!!
 Quality in version 2008 continues to slide down January 23, 2008

We've been using Peachtree for some time, but this will probably be the final year. For a relatively new release the large number of items in the Sage Knowledgebase indicates some serious issues with this release.
My notes:
Multi-user capacity is now down to a maximum of 5 users. Makes running an accounting department difficult. You will most likely have to have users share user names and passwords. Bye bye to any audit trail. If you consider your business larger than a small company - buy some other software.
Installation is a pain and may the gods help you if you make a mistake. Data path errors can only be corrected by removing then reinstalling the software. Come on Sage. You have got to be kidding me here.
Be aware that your machines will need version 2 of the dot net framework so install that and it's updates before you tackle Peachtree install.
You can not change Peachtree users while anyone else is in the system. You need exclusive access apparently. Of course, since you can only have 5 users disruption can only be minimal.
Version 2008 is significantly slower than previous versions.
In a multiuser environment installation of updates and tax updates can change your shared data. Always backup your company(ies) first.
Version 2008 interface is horrible. I used to think the 2005 version bad, but would love to have it back know.
If you need the Tax Service, be aware that you will be forced into upgrading Peachtree every 2-3 years.
Excellent easy to use software February 27, 2007

I couldn't disagree more with the reviews bashing this software. I've worked with numerous accounting software packages and this is my favorite. My opinion is Quickbooks is a MUCH more difficult to use, and not at all intuitive. Do not be persuaded by these horrible reviews. Peachtree is a stable, complete and well respected software package.
With any software there is a learning curve. Quickbooks, because of it's wide following, tries to be everything to everybody. It is overly complex, and not easy to learn. Peachtree focuses on small business, virtually exclusively. It doesn't make accounting overly complex like Quickbooks. The reality is, you must have SOME accounting knowledge to use either product effectively. While Quickbooks might "seem" easier to the untrained, the reality is, if you're untrained, the end product will be garbage. Just because it's easy, doesn't mean it's right.
If you learn this product, not only will you be able to handle your accounting, it will be right. Just because the masses are heading to Quickbooks, doesn't make it better..... Think for yourself. This IS excellent software.
Good luck....
Challenging upgrade February 14, 2007

My client had me upgrade them from version 2004 to 2007. 2007 worked the first time, then failed to run. 2007 also locked us out of the old version with a looping error message that required Task Master to kill. Sage technical support was unresponsive. I uninstalled 2007 and then 2004 worked fine. The client is considering conversion to another accounting program.
