Shopping for a QuickBooks Shopping Cart?
When I talk with new or potential customers, the question I get asked most is “What shopping cart should I use?” My answer is usually “It depends”. Generally I try to remain unbiased as I work with lots of different ecommerce products and try to remain “product agnostic”. In a previous article, I covered what [...]
Connecting Data Between QuickBooks and Other Applications–My Nightmare
Last summer I experienced a “data nightmare” with a QuickBooks data file. We were using QuickBooks Enterprise 12 R8 and the data file had about 5 years of transactions. The problems we encountered get to the core of what can go wrong when connecting two software systems together, but this case is specific to QuickBooks [...]
Still Addicted to Desktop Software? Get it Hosted in the Cloud

This is where the idea of hosting your windows applications in the cloud becomes not only a viable option, [...]
Cloud Accounting versus Desktop Accounting
The time has come for us to take a serious look at “Cloud” based accounting products in QuickBooks and Beyond. I know, many of you have already embraced “Cloud” accounting products, but some people haven’t really gotten started.

Connecting the Pieces with Transaction Pro Exporter
I’ve talked about the Transaction Pro Importer from Baystate Consulting (one of my favorite QuickBooks integrated tools), now let’s talk about exporting data from QuickBooks using the complimentary product, the Transaction Pro Exporter. I’ll also take a look at how one company uses this tool to connect the pieces.
Evaluating QuickBooks Integration Applications
As a consultant, you quickly realize that while QuickBooks is a robust accounting solution, it is packaged software and there are many different reasons why it may not be quite enough to meet the client’s needs. Intuit realized that they could have more, happy customers if they could leverage the resources of developers to fill [...]
