Domain Name Com's - Software : QuickBooks Pro 2007 for Mac (Mac) [OLD VERSION]

- Big Difference from PC
This version of quickbooks is more than enough to do the books for most home-based -> small sized company's needs. I have used the pro versions of quickbooks for P.C. as well as the wholesale/manufacturing versions for the P.C.
I would like to see more mac versions, as we decided to use macs for our business to feel more secure (not running an intel chipset). This "Pro" version of quickbooks for Mac is ok, but since it is the only mac option there is no true comparison other than the p.c. version. So to compare the two, I would say it is equal to or slightly less functional than the p.c. version.

We recommend this for a small company for sure, so if you are purely mac-based, you should get most of what you need within this version.

- share files with Windows? Well...... sort of maybe
Once again QuickBooks dangles promises to us Mac folk that just don't add up. If you're like me, your accountant and bookkeeper are on Windoz - that's why I was psyched when I thought I would really be able to share my Mac QB files with them, and vice-versa. Mistake #1 - I give my bookkeeper a backup from QB 2006 before I updated to 2007. BIG mistake. QB is not backward compatable. So when my bookkeper sent the file back to me in Mac format, (after spending hours updating it), I was not able to import it into QB 2007. To me, this is nuts. But the helpful tech person we spoke with, suggested that even if it had been '07 this sharing business between Mac and Windows versions is sort of a one time deal. This wasn't intended to be a back and forth thing, between Mac and Windows. Huh? So what's the point? Here's my work-around: I bought a used XP box on eBay and am trading my Mac '07 for Windoz '07.

- Maccounting
Most of the world still runs on PCs and as a Mac owner (and lover), it can be tough to find software for basic stuff like accounting. I'm a guy who makes a living making stuff sound good for radio, TV, video games and so on. As a freelancer, I need something to keep track of my business banking, credit cards, expenses and invoices and this program does just that and very intuitively, just like my Mac.
I used MYOB--a Mac accounting program--but found it to be tricky and didn't end up with the comprehensive reports for my accountant that I expected and wound up going over everything expense by expense and invoice by invoice for hours. It could be that I didn't understand the program well enough, but support is extra everytime you call customer service for help, so no thanks MYOB. In fact, I put off doing most of my 2006 accounting until January 2007 because I dreaded trying to figure out MYOB again.
Then I broke down and bought Quickbooks for Mac. It did everything I needed it to--a year's worth of accounting in a weekend and I never even cracked the manual. It allowed me to save the year as a PC file to hand to my accountant on a CD. A few days later he handed me back a CD with a Mac file of my adjusted accounting and my corp taxes were done and sent.
I can't speak for anyone with really advanced accounting needs because I never got that deep into the program, but for my needs it's right on the money.

- Where's the payroll?
I'm currently learning how to use this product; however, one of the first things I noticed was that the only way to do my payroll with it was to use a SERVICE. Now of course, this SERVICE wasn't free and with only 4 employees, the last thing I wanted to do was expend $20 a month on a SERVICE. Wasn't that the point of getting Quickbooks - so I could do it myself?

Now I can understand that tax codes, percentages, etc can vary from state to state, but would it have been so difficult for them to just set up a section with the generalized accounts and have the user input the amounts for each account needed on their payroll checks. See, I'm not even asking them to have the computer calculate the amounts. Simple would have been fine with me.

As for the rest of the program, it looks as though it will be fairly easy to use after I figure out the best way to set it up for my particular business.

I'm disappointed that a Business program designed for the small businessman would omit something as vital as payroll.

- Not as good as QuickBooks Windows experience
We have used QuickBooks on a PC since the 1990's. We loved the way Inuit made accounting accessible for people without degrees in accounting. QuickBooks for Mac is TERRIBLE in comparison. If you plan to use the payroll features, it is unusable. QuickBooks Mac payroll redirects you to the internet, where it is handled by PayCycle (an independent company). Payroll is not integrated at all in the Mac (instead import/export operation). On the PC, it is part of the QuickBooks application. We could not get job costing to work, and the tax calculations made no sense. We were paying TONS of money to PayCycle, so fortunately the taxes were filed automatically. We finally reverted back to QuickBooks for Windows and are MUCH happier with Intuit handling our payroll.
