5 out of 5 stars Quickbooks Premier Prof. Services Edition 2008   July 31, 2008
I have been using Quickbooks in my company for many years now. This latest version reflects the continuing quality and improvements that previous versions of Quickbooks have shown. We are and have been very pleased with this software. We have been using Quickbooks since 1996.

Quickbooks sales staff and their corporate office stated that Outlook tracking of time was possible without a subscription to Quickbooks web services. This is wholly inaccurate. br /br /Product in general works fine, but staff knowledge and assistance is part of the package.

Not as good as I had hoped. I had hoped I could tailor the program more to my needs in providing professional services. However, after one weekend of work, I was ready to take a crowbar to the program.br /br /Quickbooks is a good, inexpensive accounting product, but you had better work the way it wants you to and take time to go through all the tutorials before trying to use it.
