Top Reasons to Switch to QuickBooks Premier Hosting

QuickBooks has been popular accounting software for several years. The popularity has only grown since and there are new advancements happening from time to time. Making the switch to QuickBooks can prove to be one of the best decisions you make for your small and medium-sized business. Depending on their business needs, owners can make their choice between the three QB versions, namely, QuickBooks Pro, Premier, and Enterprise. 

QuickBooks had initially started with the desktop version. Later, Intuit introduced QuickBooks Online, and now we also have QuickBooks Hosting, which is simply QuickBooks Desktop hosted on the cloud. 

Out of the three different versions of QuickBooks software, QuickBooks Premier Hosting has seen its popularity growing in recent years. Although the major benefits that QuickBooks Premier Hosting offers are similar to those of the cloud, it is still a great application for small and medium-sized businesses, whether established or still growing. The top reasons to make the switch to QuickBooks Premier Hosting are mentioned below:

• Universal Accessibility, On Every DeviceQuickBooks Premier Hosting means the ability to access the desktop version hosted on the internet. This implies that the users can access their QuickBooks on-the-go. The hosted version of QuickBooks Premier can be accessed anytime and anywhere, on any device whether desktop, laptop, mobile phone or tablet. This freedom is unmatched with the desktop and online version. The desktop version can be accessed only on the personal computer whereas the online version does not provide all the features that the desktop version has.

• Improved CollaborationAs the hosted version of QuickBooks Premier can be accessed anytime, anywhere without any barrier of the device, the users can access their files whenever they want. This also implies that anyone who has access to the files can work on the files too. Thus, business owners can often collaborate their work with their clients as CPAs, to work together on the same set of files, while being located at different locations. Geographical barriers, hence, broken.

• Greater SecurityQuickBooks Premier Hosting gives the user the power to allow or disallow access to their files whenever they want. With admin rights, a user can add any number of users he/she wants and can also remove any user as he pleases. Another great feature that automatically increases the power of a QB Premier Hosting user is the ability of the admin to restrict access to a particular file that the user wishes to keep private.

• Affordable For SMBsThe biggest benefit of QuickBooks Premier Hosting is that it can be afforded by businesses of all sizes. The pricing scheme offered by the cloud service providers is fairly simple, with an added pay-as-you-go feature. The cloud is also scalable, which means users can easily increase or decrease the amount of space they need on the cloud.

• Enjoy Greater Flexibility, Without Paying ExtraBusinesses are usually volatile. If profitable, the owner may want to expand, and in case of a loss-making unit, the owner is most likely to shrink his business. In both cases, the cloud is extremely flexible. You can buy more space in case of expansion, and reduce the rented space in case of contraction, without paying any additional charges. 

A Final Word 

The benefits of QuickBooks Premier Hosting are just an introduction. Once a user makes the switch, he can observe and experience a great amount of ease while managing finances. The software is easy to learn and with little practice, the user can manage his accounts well. Although initially, some help from a practiced and experienced accountant may be required.
