Quickbooks. Why and when to move to the next package

Why move to OpenPro if you are running Quickbooks

Request information Here regarding the OpenPro Software

QuickBooks is the world�s most popular accounting system. For the money, QuickBooks provides a nice assortment of features that cater to the needs of smaller businesses. However, QuickBooks has many limitations, many companies can easily outgrow this product.

Limitations of QuickBooks

�	Limited accounting system features

�	Limited non-sql database performance

If you run a smaller operation, these product characteristics are actually appealing. For one thing, having fewer features makes Intuit QuickBooks easier to use. If hundreds of new features were added to the product, users would have more difficulty mastering it. In addition, if QuickBooks incorporated a more robust database, its price would increase.

If your organization is rapidly expanding, however, you will eventually outgrow the QuickBooks feature set and database performance.

QuickBooks Feature Set Limitations

Growing companies often find they need more sophisticated features that aren�t offered by QuickBooks. For example, QuickBooks does not support serial number tracking, multiple warehouse locations, or customer-specific pricing and much more..

QuickBooks Database Limitations

According to Intuit, QuickBooks can theoretically handle up to a billion transactions. But the system is very slow when you add more records. QuickBooks� performance will decline to unacceptable levels.

With SQL databases the number of records will not slow down the performance.

Replace QuickBooks

Once you�ve determined your company needs a new accounting software system, you should look at OpenPro Web Based ERP Software..
