Construction Company Bookkeeping For Contractors All Across The USA Including Alaska And Hawaii

QuickBooks Desktop Cloud Computing Vs. QuickBooks Online

Written by Randal DeHart | Thu, Feb 23, 2012

We Love QuickBooks So Which One Is Best Depends Your Needs


We Recommend QuickBooks Online When The Business:

  • Is run like a hobby

  • Not construction company

  • Doesn't need full QuickBooks

  • Owner sole focus is saving money

  • Basic simple reports are all you need

  • Businesses with less than three employees

  • The owner likes doing everything themselves

  • The owner has lots of free time to learn software

  • They do not fit our client profile of contracting for profit


We Recommend QuickBooks Desktop Version Cloud Computing When The Business:

QuickBooks desktop in the cloud - can reduce your overhead and increase your productivity. Being able to work from anywhere, anytime, with a single source for all of your data allows you to:

  • Reduce your travel time and expenses

  • Create, print and/or email invoices at the jobsite and get paid immediately

  • Simplify PC maintenance and not have to deal with network issues in your office

  • Access to remote support so you are never alone

  • You are in business for yourself but not by yourself

  • Increased efficiency because you can have access to your live company files

Advantages Of QuickBooks Hosting (Cloud Computing) vs. QuickBooks Online

  • QuickBooks Online - Is a totally different version of QuickBooks. It is different than QuickBooks Pro, Premier, or Enterprise.

  • We Have Contracted - With an enterprise level QuickBooks hosting service to provide you with English speaking well trained network technicians to support you and your staff.

  • You Can Use The QuickBooks Version - You have purchased or we can arrange to lease QuickBooks on a month-to-month basis and you will be upgraded to the latest versions every year at no additional cost.

  • QuickBooks Desktop In The Cloud - Allows access to multiple licensed users at the same time and they do not have to be in the same location, city, state or country for that matter.

  • QuickBooks Online - Does not offer the full features of QuickBooks. QuickBooks cloud computing offers every feature available with QuickBooks.

  • QuickBooks Online - Does not have:

    • Purchase orders

    • Inventory tracking

    • Sales order tracking

    • Job costing or estimating

    • Customized price levels

    • Integration with Excel, Word, or Outlook

    • Online bill payment

    • Payroll input

    • Forecasts

    • Business plans

  • QuickBooks Online - Does not allow user add-ons programs like:

QuickBooks Hosting - Can save you and your staff time, energy and money by using exactly the same QuickBooks interface you use on your local PC.
