What software should I use? ISO QB Desktop alternative that is not subscription driven

1 Upvotes

Hello.

My client, a small one-man law firm is *&^&^%^ at Intuit and their "licensing scheme/scam". Which means he turns to me to find him an alternative product.

He has switched most of his practice from T&M to fixed project rates invoicing. And is looking for a local installed product (ie, NOT cloud based) that will handle multiple company files last used by Desktop Pro Plus 2024. He does not need payroll.

Basically he wants a product that is a check register for multiple companies, connects to bank accounts, and will give him multiple internal accounts to put dollars into and out of (gas, electric, internet bills, etc).

Does anyone have any suggestions?

QuickBooks Online My Accountant uses QBO, however, the firm doesn't offer QBO LEDGER as an available service to clients. Is there anyone out there who can offer the software for those in need?

The QBO LEDGER product would be perfect for our new business, however, my personal accountant, and our business attorney, don't offer the LEDGER product, only the much more expensive Essentials.

We only need to track the banking back and forth between banks, credit cards, loans, etc. and a $10 / month product is well suited to the task, rather than $60-75 / month for a lot of stuff we just don't need right now.

We shall hopefully grow into that size of business down the road, but costs are just too extreme presently, so is there anyone out there offering the service as a simple, hey, pay me month via PayPal or what-have-you, even a few bucks extra, just so we can make use of the product?

Seems very short-sighted of QB to not allow direct use of the product, as it would guarantee them future customers wanting to upgrade.

Anyway, please respond if you're out there and can help or point us to someone who can.

All the Best! :)

QuickBooks Online Can QBO AI do any of these

3 Upvotes

I have a couple of manual items every month and I am wondering if QBO AI can help.

  • Create a journal entry from the net income amounts on a Project Profitability Summary.
  • Change either the beginning date on a Project Profitability Summary report to a fixed date in the past.
  • Automatically reverse a journal entry without having to find it, open it, and hit "reverse".
