QB Purchase

US QuickBooks for Macintosh

I am on fence regarding buying Qb for Mac versus the MYOB or another software. I've seen that the Mac version has had a number of complaints. Or is this really just sour grapes by people!

 List the top three things you must have in your financial software and we may be able to tell you QB is going to meet your needs. No matter what, you need to read the product description thoroughly and see if it will meet your needs. Sure, some people have had legitimate concerns, but others just didn't do their due diligence in selecting their software.

 Thanks for replying.

The nature of this business is to bill insurance companies for services provided by interpreters that we pay as independent contractors.  I believe that I can customize an invoice (input and output) to reflect our required parameters.   I am assuming that I can also set-up the interpreters to be independent contractor vendors.  I also believe that i can integrate the two functions to be in sync with our bank account.   I've already done similar types of thing like this on QB for a PC.   My concern is the reliability of QB on a Mac given the sour grapes i've seen.  So, it's like Intuit did QB for the Mac as an afterthought without fully tweaking everything prior to releasing its product.

The best thing to do is download a free trial and give a whirl. I'm sure  you have additional needs that maybe you can't think of off the top of your head. 

You can also look at a more comprehensive list of differences here:
