 Should have upgraded sooner! March 20, 2006

This was a long overdue upgrade from 2003 version. Should have upgraded sooner. This release fixes all those little annoying extra steps you used to have to take to get lists and reports. Much quicker and easier to use on daily AR/AP. I haven't had time yet to delve deeper for further review. So far - two thumbs up .
minor updates for the $$ November 26, 2005

I still don't understand why Intuit justifies charging a ridiculous amount for minor updates to their program - and then you still have no support! Even the upgrade cost is outrageous for what you get. I've been using Quickbooks for 10 years now and only stay with them because the better programs are way out of reach and moving my data would take great amounts of time and energy. Will they ever listen to their customers and their needs?
 Wait till they get the bugs out November 22, 2005

Purchased this version to upgrade from 04 Simple install did not work,had to uninstall,thats where the problems started. Somehow it locked up my system. Was not able to reboot at all, could not start up in safe mode, could not use system restore or use last good configuration. called Intuit Thur PM was told by a tech I was not alone, there were quite a few others with the same problem. I was told my situation was placed on high prioroty and should be resolved in a few hours, they would call me with the solution well after 10 more phone calls and no help at all my only solution was to reformat and reinstall my operating system . Files lost and much time wasted.
Called back on Mon was told by the tech they still had not come up with a solution and that they were trying to fix the program,he said I should wait for a new release to come out and not install the on I just purchased. Cant believe Intuit released a program with major problems Beware Their teck support is terrible
Quickbooks for all November 12, 2005

To any past, present or future user of Quickbooks, after trying this product I would like to say it is the best that Intuit has put out yet. It is clear, consise and easy to use. If you are needing an accounting program for your existing business or starting a new one, I recommend that you try Quickbooks 2006 in any form. They have made one for most any industry and it will work for your personal as well.
I have been working with Quickbooks since it came out for private use in DOS and have upgraded every time I have found a program that has made my job and life easier. This is the best one yet, download a free trail and see for yourself.
Hope you are as happy with it as I am.
