Quickbooks hosting

Can someone please recommend a hosting provider for Quickbooks? We don't want to continue supporting it with internal hardware and IT for a variety of reasons. Thank you.

Have you looked at Intuit's

by Dale Bolen (CFO) - 08/04/2010 - 2:55pm

Have you looked at Intuit's online version of Quickbooks? (Ingeniously called "Quickbooks Online.") It lacks some features of the desktop version, but it is a good product for simple operations.

Thanks for the note but i

by Jane Levin (Corporate Controller) - 08/04/2010 - 3:21pm

Thanks for the note but i have looked at that and read the pretty extensive discussion on Proformative and that's really not going to work for my company. So we are still on QB but want multi-location access w/o the headache of managing our own on-site QB server (been there - it's not fun) and am thus looking for a place to host it. Thank you, though.

We're using 8x8 in San Jose. We also looked at QB Online, and it doesn't work.

is 8x8 a generic hosting

by Jane Levin (Corporate Controller) - 08/05/2010 - 10:05am

is 8x8 a generic hosting outfit, or do the specifically do QB hosting? I ask b/c the latter types are QB experts with all of the infrastructure you would want, including, importantly, the care and feeding of the server, software updates, etc. Thank you.

QuickBooks hosting

I tested their services for a client and it works exactly like desctop installed QuickBooks. You can access it from multiple locations and computers. You just need Internet access.

Hosted

by Richard Craig (Shareholder) - 08/06/2010 - 6:48am

I agree with Renee's comments. Insync is a provider specializing around QB Hosting. They do a nice job and works from any location that has internet access.

Hosted QuickBooks

by Steven Singer (Outsourced CFO/FINOP) - 08/31/2010 - 8:46am

I highly recommend Swizznet (swizznet.com). You can contact Kristin Callan, Director of Client Services. I've been using them for about 2 years, and have nothing but positive things to say. They host all versions of QB, including Enterprise. There are other ancillary benefits as well.

Quickbooks - Inventory Management

by Thomas Mungovan (Director of Finance) - 09/02/2010 - 7:43am

We're a small hi-tech manufacturing company, and currently run Quickbooks Premier Addition 2010 as our ledger system.

It's been our experience that Quickbooks is not sufficient to adequately manage our inventory & supply chain practices...but we're not quite ready to switch to a full ERP system yet.

So we're looking for a 'bolt-on' database to manage inventory that fully integrated with Quickbooks.

I've heard "Fishbowl" works well as a inventory database to support Quickbooks - has anyone had any experience (good or bad) with Fishbowl or any other inventory packages?

Has anyone successfully used the Quickbooks Manufacturing package?

Any insight or comments would be greatly appreciated.

Quick Books On Line and alternatives

by Mark Schauwecker (Financial Manager) - 09/16/2010 - 8:57am

I've subscribed to Quick Books On Line and have found it dissimilar to its Quick Books 2009 "cousin" I use at work. I would like to utilize a updated version (2010 or soon to be released 2011)for my own educational and business purposes.

With so many SaaS offerings out there, is there a site for utilizing Quick Books 2010 for a monthly fee WITHOUT buying the software off the shelf. Or am I missing the boat in my perception of SaaS in this case?

QuickBooks Online and alternatives

by Steven Singer (Outsourced CFO/FINOP) - 09/16/2010 - 10:00am

There are hosted solutions that address your needs. I have found Swizznet (www.swizznet.com) to be the best of the offerings available. They host the latest QB Premiere and QB Enterprise versions, giving you remote, secure, affordable access to your QB files. You can contact Kristin Callan, Director of Client Services if you have questions, or would like a demo.
I may sound like a promotion for the Co., but that is only b/c of the success I've had with their product (and failures I've experienced with others).

You can find information about the various Intuit-authorized QuickBooks hosting providers on the "running QuickBooks in the cloud" blog ( qbcloud.wordpress.com ) . InsynQ was the first provider authorized, and is authorized in both the US and Canada to host QB.

Hosted QuickBooks? Right Networks for sure...

by Noah Allen (NA) - 05/11/2011 - 2:18am

We’ve found that Right Networks®, out of Nashua, New Hampshire (http://www.rightnetworks.com/) is close to ideal. They’re the largest Intuit-authorized QuickBooks® hosting company (15,000+ users). They’re a Microsoft® Licensed Service Provider (required to host QuickBooks® legally), and as a user you can see and run your own application license. They support multiple versions of QuickBooks with no problem, and QB add-ons are not an issue either. Integration with Microsoft® Word®, Excel®, and Exchange® 2010 is seamless. We let them handle the nightly backups, but we can also drag-and-drop files and copy them to our personal PC hard drives to augment what they’re doing “offline”. And anytime we’ve had questions, they’ve got US-based support by phone, email, and web.

Standard technologies versus proprietary

by Joanie Mann (owner) - 08/25/2011 - 1:45pm

The only concern I have with hosting providers who utilize proprietary technology is... how can they provide an assurance that the apps will work correctly (today AND tomorrow) if the applications are deployed in a proprietary platform?

for consideration:

Regarding QB hosting: how important is Intuit authorization?

by Joanie Mann (owner) - 09/13/2011 - 2:36pm

I've noticed that there are a lot of folks talking about QB hosting, but not referencing providers who have been authorized by Intuit. How important is Intuit's authorization of a host for QB (how important to you?)?

Hosting providers in USA

by Charles Miller (manager) - 09/27/2011 - 3:58am

Hello All, I've been with the providers Cloud Group Services, and it's been a while now. They host all applications and QuickBooks also. These guys are microsoft certified professionals.

Joanie Mann - Intuit authorized is really not required since these providers are not selling the quickbook application, just hosting it but yes we need to evaluate about locations of these servers and how secure they are.

I am really enjoying being hosted and have not seen any problems so far. They offer trials too. website is www.qbvertex.com

thanks

- Charles
