Quicken For Mac To QuickBooks Windows Conversion

Written by Randal DeHart | Tue, Nov 26, 2013

Is Quicken For Mac not working for your construction company? Quicken For Mac is a great program for small contractors but it may not the power to do what you need it to do.

It is similar to the reason why a $50 circular saw is a bargain at first glance yet most construction contractors agree it really only works well for handyman doing some minor projects and it simply is not robust enough for a general contractor.

Do you own a general construction company that specializes in residential remodeling or a commercial tenant improvement construction company?

Maybe you own a construction contractor company that needs to track Job Deposits, Progress Billing, Estimates Vs. Actual Reporting, Job Costing Reports, Work-In-Process Tracking / Reporting (WIP) and complex multiple Payment Applications showing the entire job history including change order management linked to your own custom Schedule of Values (SOV) or one built on the standard 16 or 50 CSI codes?

If this describes you then perhaps QuickBooks Desktop Version In The Cloud is a better fit for you than Quicken For Mac. We are well versed in QuickBooks Pro, QuickBooks Premier, QuickBooks For Contractors, QuickBooks Contractors and QuickBooks Enterprise in all versions from the first DOS version through the most current QuickBooks.
