   Summary: Complete waste of money
If you are buying this product because it is the cheapest one Intuit offers, excpect to get what you pay for. If your needs are really so simple that this product will work for you then you would be just as well off using a spreadsheet, or downloading the free version from Microsoft, or even using their home version with business added. By the time you figure out that you need better capabilities it will be too late to return it.

Bottom line, if you want a good Quickbooks bump up to the Pro version, so you can get real Customer and Vendor management, and a decent overview summary, and multiple category levels.

   Summary: Good product, but bad information for this version
I have used Quickbooks Basic for a number of years both in my church and for my business. I have kept QB 2004 Basic since the upgrades were not immediately necessary for me.

I chose to upgrade this year to keep current on maintenance, etc. so again I chose the most basic product offered - "Simple Start". I received it just fine and it installed perfectly.

However, it does not upgrade any previous QB files. As I investigated, Intuit says that it won't upgrade files from previous QB versions on their web site (albeit in small print) and on the product box itself, but that was not ever mentioned in the Amazon listing.

So then I had to upgrade to the next higher version - an additional $80. QB Pro also works very well; it's just a shame that Intuit insists on misleading customers by not providing full information through all marketing channels. The Intuit phone rep also tried to overcharge me $20 for the upgrade but quickly accepted the correct amount when I pointed out their error a second time.

   Summary: Incomplete accounting software
I suppose that this software does what it says it does, but I am frustrated that it lacks the ability to hold payables for future payment. You need to upgrade (at additional $'s) to get this feature. Otherwise, it is easy to use and intuitive. I especially like the ability to make changes and deletions to entries. This is great for someone like me who has little knowledge of accounting. Overall, I would say that this is adequate for the very small business, but plan on the upgrade as the business expands.

   Summary: You can get Office Account Express 2007 for free
QuickBooks is, deservedly, the standard bearer of small business accounting software. The new Simple Start version is meant to make it very easy for the small business owner to get started in everyday accounting (probably more like bookkeeping to purists). However, I want to alert you to Microsoft's free Office Accounting Express 2007 which offers the same features but is truly free. You can download OAE at ideawins dot com, a Microsoft website. The OAE 2007 was recommended in the Nov. 15, 2006 New York Times.

Whichever software you choose, good luck with your business!


 Rating 5   Written on October 22, 2006
   Summary: Extraordinary and Simple to Use
Quickbooks Simple Start offers the Small Business Owner a Very Easy and Affordable solution to business bookkeeping. From the easy to learn intuitive interface to the outstanding additions available (Credit Cards, Payroll etc.) This new software provides any business with a sound system whether upgrading from previous Quickbooks software or just starting out.
