QuickBooks Premier Non-Profit Edition 2005

Quickbooks for Nonprofit does a lot of great things. Just what we needed. However, it was extremely difficult to get started with. We can understand why QuickBooks markets their software support as another profit center – they know you will be calling them for help!

I had the, uhm, privilege of setting this up for a nonprofit organization. QuickBooks Premier Non-Profit Edition 2005 was chosen because everyone collectively went, “We need accounting software. And gasp! Quickbooks is catering to nonprofits! And we’re a nonprofit! So this has got to be great!” However, it’s all the same with an extra name on it. Therefore I recommend taking the the reviews of QuickBooks Premier 2005 (regular edition) into consideration for your purchasing decision. The reviews are bad but apparently they’re bad for every single accounting software product on Amazon (really, you’ll see).
It is very, very smart marketing on Intuit’s part to make such specialized niche versions of their software. They don’t seem to have any competitors in “nonprofit accounting” at the office stores. They must be barnstorming marketshare coming up with specialized versions.
I don’t know the Quickbooks software well enough to give you an accurate rating. I gave it four stars. I was tempted to give it three, a fair mediocre rating… Quickbooks was not easy or wonderful, or pleasant. But does it do its job? Yes. I think Quickbooks or something like it is necessary, and will pay off big time in the long run. It comes with (a rather good, included) how-to book. If you have the money, go to Intuit’s website and look up a QuickBooks Consultant in your area… I’d imagine this genuinely valuable.
Kudos to Intuit for honoring their rebate.
Make sure you check the reviews for the regular edition, as these two are basically the same thing.
