FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) Upgrading QuickBooks.

This time of year there’s always a lot of hype and pressure to upgrade to the newest version of QuickBooks.  Inuit put “upgrade” ads in your current version of the software, they send you emails with “special offers”, perhaps your QuickBooks professional advisor or your CPA is making the recommendation that you upgrade.

Sometimes this is just hype and a way for these folks to make some extra money – because they earn a commission on your purchase.  Other times their urging is legitimate, perhaps the version of QuickBooks that you are using is scheduled to “sunset or retire” by May of 2013 and you’ll use many of the services that you rely on – like payroll and on-line banking for example.
