How Do I Know When I’ve Outgrown QuickBooks?

1. My transaction volume has grown to a level that QuickBooks can’t handle efficiently, or at all.

2. The number of users of my accounting system has grown, and I need control of what these users can do and see.

3. I need to be able to track and analyze my financial activity daily and in more detail.

4. I have to integrate 3rd party applications with QuickBooks. I would rather have one software that can handle all of my needs.

5. I have to maintain a fully GAAP Compliant General Ledger.

6. I need to consolidate multiple businesses into a single reporting presentation.

7. I need to set up custom measures to understand critical aspects of the business.

8. I need to be able to make consolidated financial presentations that incorporate complex ownership percentage allocations.

9. I find it difficult to manage inter-company “due to” and “due from” reconciliations between multiple related businesses.

10. I record transactions manually in QuickBooks, but I would like to be able to automate the triggering of accounting entries based on a set of rules.

11. I have to manually perform complex offline allocations. This is inefficient and time-consuming.

12. I spend too much time manually posting revenue recognition and accrual adjustments and I want a system where I can program in revenue and expense realization automatically.
