Anyone use Quickbooks Online??
So I will be the first to admit I do not love the paperwork side.I love dealmaking,meetings,talking to people,etc.
I saw Quick Books online and was wondering if anyone uses it or what you use.The benefit is you don't have to buy newer versions and it is updated to newer versions automatically.I just need a system for keeping up with all the junk mandated by the tax man and our lovely government(sarcasm intended).
Any insight appreciated.
I am thinking of using the 12.95 a month version.
I have excel but my older computer came with a limited version and they want 99 dollars for a full one.

I prefer the desktop software as opposed to the online version, just because it allows me to have my data available anywhere my laptop might be (whether or not I have Internet access).
I tend to upgrade every 3 years or so -- generally there aren't any updates so important or useful that having to update is necessary, and my accountant will support QB versions back 10 years.
That said, I know a few people who use the online version and they like it...
