Question: I want to switch to QuickBooks, but I don’t know which one to pick. I spoke to Intuit, and they say I should purchase QuickBooks Online, and it will do everything I need. Is that true?
Answer: Our business is complex and unique and requires a software that can handle our complicated orders. While there is not a perfect system for our industry, QB Premier works best for the majority of ad specialty distributors. (For very large distributors, those with gross revenue well over $1.0 million, I recommend QB Enterprise.)
