Here we’ll talk a bit about some of the considerable downsides to switching to an ERP, and ways you can greatly increase the lifespan of your QuickBooks solution. You may think that going with a higher level software package might signify that you’ve “made it to the big leagues,” but higher level does not always translate into higher value. That is why we encourage our clients to stay in QuickBooks, and make the most out of their existing software, as long as possible. This software comes with a lot of functionality, a hefty price tag, and sometimes a six-month-long, or more, conversion cycle. Oracle’s NetSuite and SAP are two of the more robust enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems that larger businesses frequently investigate.

As companies grow in size and complexity, they often reach an inflection point where they think they’re outgrowing QuickBooks and begin considering other pieces of software. They have over 80% market share and have a diverse product offering suited to help both small businesses ( QuickBooks Online) and larger growing companies ( QuickBooks Enterprise) and everything in between ( QuickBooks Pro, QuickBooks Premier).

QuickBooks is the accounting software of choice for more than 29 million small businesses in the U.S.
