As a QuickBooks ProAdvisor we are qualified to not only set up your QuickBooks subscription for bookkeeping and payroll but also walk you through how to effectively use the system.

QuickBooks Desktop vs. QuickBooks Online

Pros & Cons - Summary of QuickBooks Desktop vs. QuickBooks Online

At Blue Keel we love and use QuickBooks Online for outsourced bookkeeping and payroll. There are some merits to the desktop version which we highlight. However, for the long term and flexibility, we still believe QuickBooks online is the best bet for any company looking to utilize a cloud based software for their bookkeeping.

QuickBooks Desktop

QuickBooks Online

There is a risk that Intuit could cancel this version and it becomes obsolete and less marketed by QB

With more businesses moving to the 'cloud' this is the future of accounting software. QBO is marketed more as well

Subscription model 

Subscription model 

Multiple company files for one subscription purchase

Only one company file per purchase

Static 'manual' backups making it easier for your data to be lost or go unsaved if you forget to backup

Your data is stored and saved on secure servers in the 'cloud'

Consistent design interface

Changing design interface to improve website

May fit special requirements better like inventory tracking

Does allow for special requirements like inventory tracking

More difficult to work with from different locations because it's 'desktop'

Easier to work from any location since it's web cloud-based software

Bank feed may be a little more difficult to use

Connects to banks very well

Harder to add add-on apps

Much easier to use add-on applications

Why Our QuickBooks Setup Services Are Important

In our opinion we believe we are the best bookkeeper for QuickBooks setup services in Toronto.

Bookkeeping and managing financial records can be a challenge especially if you use manual technology like Microsoft Excel. It's even harder to properly establish and set up a cloud based software and accounting system if you are new or if you choose to migrate your records from Excel or other software accounting systems like Sage. As hard as it may be, we still believe in the long run, QuickBooks Online for bookkeeping and payroll is the best accounting system available to you.

QuickBooks Setup Services help avoid issues and headaches:

  • When you code or place assets within the wrong 'class' (i.e. a segment showing an ongoing project/program with many moving parts) could have consequences such as when you claim for Capital Cost Allowances (CCA) with the CRA where you under or over claim.
  • Your employees work hard so they want to make sure they don't panic when it comes to their pay. Setting up payroll can be a tedious challenge and headache that if setup incorrectly could lead to a domino effect that takes away from productive use of time as well as problems with the CRA. Often than not you won't know that it's not setup appropriately until you need to file taxes for employees.
