Can anyone recommend an alternative to QuickBooks?

We're looking for one as well. Intuit has gotten so arrogant and so ridiculously expensive for small companies that they've left a hole in the market big enough to drive a startup company through. Sooner or later, they'll have a solid competitor and when that day comes, we'll be among the hundreds of thousands (or millions) bolting out of the Intuit gulag.

No, not through Amazon. You may be able to call Quickbooks support for them to give you a link but you'd have to have the license info already and that comes with the disk.

I wouldn't. I wish we had stated with quickbooks. The customer service at sage is really bad and they charge over $1,200 per year as a service contract.

I use windows 7 and find that just using folders is sufficient for my needs. If you prefer extra organizational tools, rack2-filer may be useful. It basically allows you to set up a filing system using filing cabinets and binders. I do like the feature that allows you to flip through your documents page by page and the search feature. It does have a space limit so review the size limitations and compare to your application.

I use DateBk6 for my calendar/toDo, mobileTimer, and checkbook. Slap is another interesting piece of software. I also use eBible.

Quickbooks Pro 2012 2011 can certainly look at 2009..what hogwash! If your accountant told you that, then get rid of them. They certainly are not that familiar with QuickBooks. In the Denver metro area at least, almost all small businesses use some form of QuickBooks. It is the best software for small businesses.

There are apps that are equivalent to or better than Microsoft office, in my opinion. I have WP Office(Kingsoft), Google Docs, and OfficeSuite installed and they are amazing! There are others to choose from but these are the top apps and the best, from my experience. (Some apps do not support some documents, so I mainly use Kingsoft). Hope you found this helpful! :)P.S you may want add Adobe reader, also!

I would call QuickBooks sales and ask them - I know that if you buy a 4th single user and install it on the network it should work like the 3 user.

I don't use the emailing capabilities. I'm sure it is good. Quickbooks is a great program. I have used it for almost 20 years. There have been many upgrades but this last upgrade is so different and I don't like it.

Yes, using the free QuickOffice app. There is a pro version also available.

Unfortunately, I never used quickbooks, so I don't know the difference. I am just beginning to use quicken, as well.

So far the best option is the fujitsu scansnap. Waiting for the price to come down a hair before I bite the bullet.

Best I can tell you is I purchased from Amazon, I needed support on getting QuickBooks integrated and 1 call an 20 minutes later, mission accomplished. They were prompt, polite and efficient.

I use a program called http://www.ezclaim.com/ You fill in all the information into the patient record, enter the date of service and the charge, and then hit print. This program keeps your pt file, billing and chart notes. once payment is received, you enter the payment. it allows you to keep track of what's paid and whats not, and reprint to rebill as needed. it is NOT an accounting software like quickbooks. But it is a full service billing program. makes my life easy. There are others out there, of those i've tried, I'm happy with this one.

I thoroughly tried Quicken once and it seemed to me much less convenient than Money (maybe because I got used to it already). Lousy interface, not possible to work with different currencies etc.

You could type it in a word document and print. Intuit likely has an inexpensive option that would be much easier.

If the format is the same as QuickBooks yes, but I would check the size first as I do not use Quicken
