Quickbooks vs Peachtree

I want to send a quick note. I recently wrote an article comparing the newest version of Quickbooks to Sage’s Peachtree accounting software, primarily aimed at small business owners. I thought it would be a good resource for the blog.

Thanks for the link. I’m often asked this very question and am glad that I can link to your article. You can find the article here.

An interesting comparison:

    I used both accounting software, there’s not too much of difference but I am more inclined to favor the use of Quickbooks:

    1- easier to use
    2- reports (and other menu selection) are faster to load
    3- I don’t encounter I/O error in QB, I am experiencing it with Peachtree
    4- Creating back up in QB is a lot faster than in Peachtree
