Shop For Home Office Small Business Accountant (PC CD Jewelcase)

TurboTax Federal Premier Investments 2006 Win/Mac [OLDER VERSION]


I specifically bought Turbo Tax Premier because of stocks sales/purchases we made in 2006. The section on stock income was confusing and it took me several times to figure out what information Turbo Tax wanted where. When I thought I had it figured out and finished that section, I thought I would repeat it to make sure I did it right. To my surprise, the second time I entered the information I received a different total than the first time. So I did it a third time. The third time matched the second, so I figured it must be right. Then when I got to the section for error checking, I was told I had errors in my stock sales. So I did it a forth time, which came out the same as the second and third time. This time it passed the error checking, but instead of showing that we had purchased the stocks, Turbo Tax showed we had "inherited" the stocks. I could not get Turbo Tax to change, so I printed out the form scratched out "inherited" and put in the date of purchase. I would rather do my taxes by hand than use Turbo Tax again.Get more detail about TurboTax Federal Premier Investments 2006 Win/Mac [OLDER VERSION].

QuickBooks Pro 2006 5-Users Review


Upgraded from 2003. Was concerned because of previous reviews but the upgrade went just fine.

Pros: Product running without a hitch on XP, it is possible that one of the hotfixes solved alot of the previous problems.

Cons: Slightly slower startup, Registration had a loopback problem and even after completing it it would ask to register again. It finally took the registration.Get more detail about QuickBooks Pro 2006 5-Users.

VersaCheck Premium 2001 This instant


We bought the 2003 VersaCheck Premium and its savings us over $300 a month since we dont have to buy pre-printed checks anymore. We have always used another accounting system, and VersaCheck was a way for us to use the lower cost blank check paper without a lot of cost or setup hassles or switching accounting systems.

In addition we can upload and distribute checks easily and much lower cost that the Intuit offering. Its built right in to VC Premium and connects very well with G7's Qchex.com electronic check portal. We can even use any bank account we want there, with minimum effort to setup and only $0.25 per check sending fee.

Our bank did ask us to use magnetic toner for some accounts, and rather than switch banks, we found that the magnetic toner and magnetic ink that we found on the versacheck.com site was reasonably priced and economical to use.

Our other programs have never saved us any money when it comes to printing checks or electronic transactions. Our accounting software is fine programs for accounting, but we find VersaCheck Check creation software pretty compelling for actually helping cut costs of printing checks or electronic check distribution. Easy to install, and works reliably. Simple to upgrade if needed, and plenty of help files if needed. Strongly recommended if you want to cut your cost of printing checks or need an economical means to distribute checks electronically.Get more detail about VersaCheck Premium 2001.

Microsoft Money 2004 Small Business Plus Immediately


I have been using the MS Money products ever since Windows 98. I've found it much easier to use than the usual accounting programs. In the past I have tried such programs as Peachtree and Quick Books, but found them far too difficult use and understand. It's also very hard to make them work the way I want them to. I have worked the past 15 years in accounting, so you would think I could make these programs work for me, but that hasn't been the case. On the other hand, Money is flexible and versatile enough that you can customize it to your wokr habits. The only part of it that is 'Business' oriented is the Inventory section. Since I just started selling on Amazon and Ebay, I felt a need to track my inventory. Unfortunately, though, the Inventory section is just a place for you make a List of your inventory. It does not tie into any of your transactions, so you have to MANUALLY enter and remove the individual items as you buy or sell things. This is not very convenient for me. Now, I don't bother to track items, just show them as Inventory Purchases, and log the gross sales. This is working well for me. You can set up as many accounts as you need, and you can enter new categories as needed. I highly recommend this program for anyone who needs to track their home expenses and also for anyone who does NOT need to track their sales to inventory. The inventory section would work very well for keeping up with your household assets, however.

TaxACT 2009 Ultimate Bundle for Desktop Best Quality


I started off doing taxes by hand with the help of an Excel spreadsheet, moved to TurboTax for a few years and have been using TaxAct for the past 5 or 6 years. Overall TaxAct has worked ok for me, but only because I'm pretty familiar with the process, including the standard forms, and I'm double-checking everything.

Several years ago I had to file an unusual form that TaxAct didn't handle correctly; I would have overpaid by hundreds of dollars if I hadn't caught the problem myself. This year it kept wanting to treat my vehicle tax deduction from the federal form as a foreign tax payment on the state form (Calif). It kept giving a yellow alert until I finally had to zero-out the entry directly on the state form. After I expressed interest in making estimated tax payments for 2010 it kept wanting to help me do that - even after I realized I didn't need to. There was no way to go back and say "No" and have it remember. If I had printed my returns without going into the custom print options I would have gotten many pages of irrelevant forms that I didn't need to file.

TaxAct is inexpensive and does the job if you stay on top of it. If your taxes are at all complex and you're not familiar with IRS forms and instructions - and don't want to take the time to read them - I would recommend trying another program or hiring someone like an enrolled agent to do your taxes for you.Get more detail about TaxACT 2009 Ultimate Bundle for Desktop.

TurboTax Federal Basic 2006 Win/Mac [OLDER VERSION] Get it now!


I have been using TurboTax for many years, and each year their product gets more invasive, less functional, and much harder to install. This year it finally reached the point of being negative utility (i.e., worth far less than the hassle).

I am a little suspicious of any program that requires administrator access to run, but that's another matter. Once the TurboTax is running, it opens up all kinds of application ports and tries to phone home, claiming it needs 'updates' to run. Their product did the same thing last year, but this year it's just gotten out of control. Several months ago I upgraded my router to one with a higher-spec firewall, which apparently doesn't allow some of the nonsense that Intuit is trying. Their help says that I have to shut off my firewall to run their software. That sounds so simple, but logically it makes no sense. When I set up the new router, every rule had a reason, for a nice balance of security against restrictive access. This router configuration has worked beautifully without a single problem. I don't want to reconfigure my network for one single application, but what even is TurboTax doing that they would require me to shut off all security, and is zero security the sort of environment where I would want to be processing and transmitting my financial data? That's just crazy. Intuit has clearly gone too far in the wrong direction.

I ended up having to download the government forms online, and I did my taxes with a calculator and stubby pencil. TurboTax was a complete waste of time and money (worth less than zero), and if there were any justice not only would I have back the price I paid, but we'd be feeding these folks behind bars.Get more detail about TurboTax Federal Basic 2006 Win/Mac [OLDER VERSION].

Peachtree First Accounting 2003 Buy Now


If you dont' know anything about accouting, this is not the software for you. There are tutorials available with the software, but you must know the terminology first for it to make sense. There is a free trial of the full PeachTree Accounting available from Best Software, but be aware that if you try it out, you cannot transfer anything from the free trial to First Accounting, since they are different versions. You could spend a lot of time working with the trial and then have to do it all again if you buy First Accounting.

I am able to handle a small payroll without subscribing to the payroll service, but it did take some experimentation and time to figure out how the user-entered tax formulas worked (there are two sample companies included with the software). There are a lot of options for computing taxes -- you don't have to use complicate tables, and simple formulas are available. But it wasn't easy and I am still learning.Get more detail about Peachtree First Accounting 2003.

QuickBooks Basic Payroll Unlimited Employees 2009 Decide Now


Every succeeding year QuickBooks offers less and moves more features into add-ons at additional cost, and of course the basic price goes up, even though it includes less.

It is exceedingly frustrating to work with Intuit, a company that seems to think its customers are in inexhaustible revenue source. At some point there will be a viable alternative to QuicBooks and Intuit will discover that it has no loyal customer base, that every user is itching to abandon Intuit, and no one will be renewing subscriptions to QuickBooks. If I owned stock in Intuit I would be extremely upset at how Intuit alienates its users to the point that most users actually HATE Intuit.

I am regretfully renewing my Payroll subscription for another year (I skipped last year, preferring to use an Excel macro I created to calculate all the information and paste it into QB) only because I don't want to fill in W2's by hand.Get more detail about QuickBooks Basic Payroll Unlimited Employees 2009.

Discount Peachtree By Sage First Accounting 2009


I have plenty of time since I am on the phone using my FREE 30 DAY SUPPORT!
First, after a few transfers, they put you on hold for 30 minutes, THEN say "due to high call volume...blah..blah...it will over an hour!". A trick taken from the "two waiting room routine" at the doctor's office.
I am not an accountant but have used enough software that I rarely have to call tech support(if ever). The name "First Accounting" gave me the impression it was for small business's and user friendly to a degree. I called once and they took me to place(I would of never found myself) to put a check in a box. I am still having trouble with a simple account balance question.
There is a real need for a basic bookkeeping software without too many bells and whistles. I have searched but can not find one. Basically that is all I need to start my taxes for now. I thought I could grow into this software and use more of it as I go. Another rip off(Quicken got me the first time). I want my money back.
I need to search for a headset now due to my increasing neck pain. Ouch!
If I slip and miss this call it will be another 2 hours on my day off.

Buying SOLLEE SOLUTIONS Checklist Investor ( Windows )


I agree with the earlier review by R. Cook that this program, although helpful in some ways, just isn't worth the money. It's very basic, and although perhaps useful to a very new investor to help organize his thoughts and investing strategy, if you're a more experienced investor, pass this one by. The quotes by famous investors such as Warren Buffett are sort of interesting, and the company report feature is useful, but overall, fifty bucks is about twice what the program is worth. At least for half that price it qualifies as an interesting but at least cheap diversion. Also, the package I got was the last one on the shelf, and it had obviously been returned since it had been opened and the CD removed from the paper sleeve. So whoever got it before me had returned it. I might do the same if they'll take it back.Get more detail about SOLLEE SOLUTIONS Checklist Investor ( Windows ).

Buy QuickBooks Pro 6.0 2004 for MAC


I've used the PC version for nearly 10 years and was very happy with QB. I switched to a Mac platform over a year ago and finally moved to QB for mac. I was hesitant based upon the reviews. The reviews were correct. Don't waste your money on this mac stepchild of a program. It locks up more than any other mac program I have ever run and the payroll is terrible. On the pc version you have control over your payroll with the tables you download. Not with the mac version, you subscribe to a service. I have had problems copying files from the third party service to the QB register. They are aware of the problem and their "developers are looking into a solution" Don't waste your time and money if you can hold on to the PC version.

Billings 2 Top Quality


I have used this program for several years but I am now looking to move on. There was a way to have a universal message in the first version such as Thank you and your SS # but not in the 2nd. version. Somehow the 2nd. version streamlined into not being as useful. When I asked their tech support about the lack of a universal message that would appear on all invoices their response was that they could not understand what the feature I was asking about. Very bewildering. Other invoice programs I have used all had a way to have a message appear on all invoices. The program can look good but can also be confusing and frustrating to learn to use.Get more detail about Billings 2.

TaxCut Standard 2002 Filing Edition Buy Now


This software has a serious bug that may cost me a great deal of money.

My wife lived in Illinois for a year while I lived most of the year in California. In such a case, it is imperative that we file our Federal returns separately, otherwise Illinois will tax us on the money I earned in California!

TaxCut not only didn't warn us of this, it incorrectly computed the Illinois taxes using the part-year resident form. This was in spite of my having specified that my wife was in Illinois the whole year, and in spite of it being very plainly stated on the Illinois form that under such circumstances, a couple filing jointly could not use the form!

Unfortunately, I allowed TaxCut to e-file my return before I checked the state returns. Now I have to file an amendment.

I was also unable to get any help from TaxCut's customer support to stop the e-filing before it went through.

I'll never use their software again.Get more detail about TaxCut Standard 2002 Filing Edition.

Checksoft Premier Review


My story:

For some reason my software stopped printing. No change in my accounting software so I thought maybe a corrupted file. I go to Avanquest website to see if there is any help. Web site has someone with the same problem, but I get an error on the web site when I try to get into the answer to this person's problems. Not all of the forum answers are unavailable to me, just this one.

I then, as instructed, send an email explaining problem, give my OS, error message, RAM, free harddrive space and my father's Zodiac sign. OK the Zodiac sign is a joke-- I need a laugh right now. I get an auto response and a promise of an answer within 1 business day. At least 2 business days later I call the number in the auto response email. I sit on hold for 30+ minutes. A tech finally answers me and I learn for the first time that my software is no longer supported. I can get help from the forums or from their Yahoo or Google groups.

By this time I want nothing more to do with Avanquest. I am now going out to buy another software package because I have to have it today. My bookkeeper is acting like she is going to start biting the head off bunnies if I don't do something NOW. I WILL NOT BUY ANOTHER AVANQUEST PRODUCT for as long as I remember how mad I am at them right now.

Pocket Money CD for Pocket PC Immediately


I'm fairly new to Pocket Money - I bought it to go with my new Palm TX. This program helps me to be even more productive and organized than I thought possible! I no longer have to lug around my laptop PC when I travel! Now I can keep good track of my financial transactions on my PDA. I can easily keep up with my credit card balances and not be surprised at the end of the month when my bill arrives. This program also tracks other things like my bank balance since I can store several accounts and can conduct transfers and other business transactions while on the road/go. As the various account balances change, I can keep up to date with changes in my net worth as it tracks all my various account balances. Simply put, you spend, you track which account you spent from, and the PDA does the rest! This is so helpful with tracking budgeting also. I've tried so hard to keep to a budget but tracking spending is the difficult part - problem solved! When I'm ready, I import information to my quicken program.

What's really great is the ability to generate reports on the whole thing! And, I don't have to worry about my information falling into the wrong hands since it is all password protected - use a password! Finally, I sync with my home PC so I never have to worry about losing my valuable information. I can work on my PC or I can work on my PDA and just sync the two! This is a great program - and a great buy!

Microsoft Money 2003 Standard [OLD VERSION] Best Quality


I have been using Microsoft Money for many years and been pleased. I made the biggest mistake by upgrading to 2003. I had never bounced a check until now. It's register keeping is very confusing. It enters the electronic payments with a date of several days before it is due and it is very hard to tell how much money you actually have in the bank without calling and verifying with the bank. I am seriously considering switching to another software such as Quicken, since I can't go back to the previous version of Money.Get more detail about Microsoft Money 2003 Standard [OLD VERSION].

Microsoft Money 2006 Premium [OLD VERSION] Get it now!


Besides the obvious problem of BEING REQUIRED TO REGISTER WITH PASSPORT and making available all your financial data to a company, MicroBucks, which has been found guilty of violating laws in both America and Europe, the interface is confusing as is the setup of accounts.

I can't tell ya much more because I got to the part where I was suppose to download acct information from my bank but no matter what I tried it would not work.

In short, find a different product.Get more detail about Microsoft Money 2006 Premium [OLD VERSION].
