Ok, Internet - what competing small business/personal finance software packages do you like? I know much of this is heading the Cloud, yet I am old school enough to be nervous about handing accounting records off to someplace nebulous. This is not an easy decision to make - did I mention the 31 years of data? Visualize the two words I'm saying to Intuit out loud right now.the first one is four letters beginning with F. The nonprofit is now forced to update Quickbooks, but I am going to do my best to make sure this is the last time Intuit gets any money from me or my clients. Last May Intuit spun off Quicken to a private equity group so we may be waiting years for a useable update, who knows? For now."it's dead, Jim". At least I found that out before updating my personal Mac. I am still using the last functional version of Quicken for Mac, from 2007 - all subsequent versions released by Intuit for the last 10 years were crippled, badly rewritten, and unusable since they lack important basic features in the 2007 version which Sierra also breaks. I clearly cannot update my personal Mac to Sierra until I find a substitute for 31 years of Quicken personal finance data.
Looking online, there is no workable update for Quicken, either. I hope some professor will note this for the Business Ethics class. I'm sure that must have come as a complete surprise to the executives at Intuit - Apple upgrading their OS? Who knew that would happen? Or d'ya think they waited to announce this on purpose?Ĭalling their customer service line, after 20 minutes on hold I reached a snarky rep who told me the only thing to do was to pay them - the company takes no responsibility for this whatsoever, it just wants your money. This morning (one week late) Intuit sent out an email announcing that all their customers have to update to Quickbooks for Mac 2016 to use Sierra. Now Quickbooks Desktop for Mac 2015 will no longer function. I installed it yesterday on our nonprofit's computer.
