What do you like best about QuickBooks Payroll?

QuickBooks Online Payroll is AMAZING! You just put in the hours or salary, and they take care of the rest. They notify you when a report needs to be submitted, and it is ready to be sent. They take care of all the government forms, and the employees get their money by direct deposit. It is amazing, and you'll never miss a required State of Federal payment or required report.

All reporting, payments, etc. are taken care of online, and QuickBooks reminds you of when they are due. You just then select for them to be sent. The reports are all done and are professional.

This software is essential for any person who chose bookkeeping as their career.

What do you dislike about QuickBooks Payroll?

Online version is much slower than desktop version. Depending on the speed of the internet connection, it can be a really slow process.

What problems is QuickBooks Payroll solving and how is that benefiting you?

For most tasks, QuickBooks does not require users to understand standard accounting procedures. Most transactions are recorded using on-line screens that closely resemble paper-based forms such as invoices or checks.

The product is very easy to install and can be done so without technical support or a professional accountant in many cases. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
