Software Reviews of QuickBooks Pro 2006 [OLD VERSION]
Customer Review: WHAT A RIP-OFF! TERRIBLE PRODUCT AND NO SUPPORT!
Summary: 1 Stars
I regret having purchased this product. I have not been able to use it for two months, after finally giving up trying to get it to work. I have a very nice laptop running Windows XP Home, and encountered many problems. I tried all of the avenues available to me through QuickBooks, online, via email, and on the telephone. I spent nearly 25 hours overall trying to get the numerous issues taken care of. Here are just a few: The program would not convert my Quicken data; random script errors when you try to access help topics within the product; the phone # provided in the payroll demo is invalid; None of my info was viewable after bank download - it spontaneously failed to download my bank account info, after having successfully downloaded it for about two weeks. I spent 2 & 1/2 hours on the phone trying to resolve just this one issue. Part of the problem lies in the fact that I was unable to speak to a customer service person who's first language was English. Each time I was on the phone, the customer service person seemed to continually ask me to re-describe the problem, then he/she would seem to be typing the info into the computer and waiting....then eventually telling me some solution to try, then eventually telling me they did not know what the problem was. Not helpful in any way, though very polite. I'm sorry to say that this is a terribly designed, convoluted, over-complicated, non-user-friendly item which I would like to toss over a cliff. Customer Review: Very comprehensive, and Very Cumbersome

I have used a lot of software, but I do not remember using much that is as difficult to use or learn than Quickbooks. I have learned it over time, but there seem to be several functions in it that could be done in fewer steps. I would not upgrade unless I absolutely had to. The program is usable, but I am not interested in investing a lot more money in it. It works for my small business, but I could still probably get by with Quicken, as I do not write checks on it. I do kind of wish I had stayed with Quicken. The most annoying thing about the program was that I was going credit card data downloads in Quicken, but when I changed to Quickbooks, it would not let me download data from my Quicken credit card, it wanted me to switch to a Quickbooks credit card, or ask permission of all my credit card providers. I appreciate the security, but since both programs are made by the same company, this just seemed like a scam.Customer Review: Quick and EZ install and transfer.

I bought this for my dad as an upgrade, since he used the old version of Quickbooks (2002) and his tax guy bailed on him and never returned to upgrade. So, my father had 2 computers, one that was a dinosaur (6 years old!)and one that he just bought 2 years ago (top of the line at the time). He never got around to installing a version of quickbooks to his new pc so he always used his old one. I got fed up with him and his poor excuse for a number-crunching machine and bought this product for him. I backed up his old quickbooks company file to a few floppy disks, installed the 2006 version on his new computer, and the update was a snap. All I had to do was go through a few menus on 2006 and it asked for the floppies. I threw them in one by one, and it not only transferred ALL of his company information and ALL of his thousands of customer invoices and estimates to the new computer, it also updated to files to 2006 all in one "swing of the bat". E Z install, E Z company data transfer, all of this was installed and transferred within an hour (would have went faster if his old PC didn't take 10 minutes to boot up)! And to think, that was my first time dealing with Quickbooks. Not to meantion, I found it easier to navigate through the menus in comparing to 2002. A significant improvement over 2002, undoubtedly.Customer Review: GREAT PRODUCT
