Best Small Business Accounting Software: Why QuickBooks is King

by Dawn Fotopulos on April 27, 2011

There are many nominees for best small business accounting software, but QuickBooks is still number 1.  Does QuickBooks deserve this #1 status or is it just the default pick because it is so well-known?

According to Trae Wieniewitz, an experienced small business owner, QuickBooks is number 1 for a reason:

We are in the business of helping our clients do financial planning as well as tax preparation.  To help stay focused on our clients without getting caught up in the details of running our business, we use QuickBooks Online.

It’s a simple, affordable way to keep track of your books and obtain important financial data needed to make smart business decisions.

We utilize the multiple user feature to allow our office to input data as well as our accountants to access data.  When it comes to tax time, all the reports necessary to get our returns done quickly and accurately are easily accessible.

Trae added that it’s well worth trying QuickBooks’ 30-day free trial.  And, beyond that, there’s a 60-day money-back guarantee after the free trial.  This gives you three months to decide if QuickBooks is the best small business accounting software for you with no risk to you or your business.

As a successful small business owner, Trae Wieniewitz highly recommends QuickBooks as a great way to improve your business by simplifying your accounting process.

Thanks, Trae, for your valuable advice!  Trae runs a multi-million dollar business, providing financial planning and tax services to clients all over the Southeast, so we know he has plenty of experience backing his comments.  Trae is very resilient as well.  His business was completely destroyed by Hurricane Katrina in 2005, but he was rebuilt it, from scratch, to be even more successful today.

Quickbooks accounting software is agreed to be the number one accounting software. Also, the application is of great help to bookkeepers and business owners alike.

I agree that QB is powerful accounting software for small businesses that know how to use it. Know how to use it is the key. In the last eight years of my business, I have come across only one business that set up QB in an appropriate way and was recording transactions properly. This combinaton meant they could generate meaningful reports about finance and operations.

I have to disagree with the assessment that QB Online is good software. For the very small business, maybe. For the business that is serious about growth and profitability, not so. The online version is not as full featured as the software version. Neither is it as easy to enter data or navigate through the program. The online version adds as much as an extra couple of hours a month to some of my client’s workload. Reporting is also not as flexible and rich as the software version.
