But It Can Be Made Into One For Contractors
With Annual Sales Volume Between
Start Up And $10,000,000
Did you buy QuickBooks thinking it was “Quick” at keeping the “Books” for your Contracting Company and got very frustrated with it because it was neither? You are not alone!
It is not your fault QuickBooks fault, your spouse’s fault or your bookkeeper’s fault or anyone else’s fault. QuickBooks was built upon the foundation of very simplistic single-entry bookkeeping software called “Quicken” built on DOS.
Quicken was developed for regular people, not businesses, to have an electronic check register for keeping track of bank balances without having to use those tiny manual paper registries that come with every box of blank checks?
When Quicken was released it was immediately popular and very soon a lot of small businesses started using it and started asking the parent company Intuit for a business version of Quicken.
Intuit responded to market demand and released “QuickBooks” which is double entry bookkeeping software for business.
QuickBooks was better by far than anything was at the time because it was inexpensive and easy to figure out. However, like most things, it got big and better and the growing pains were horrible.
If you Google “Construction Accounting Software” the results are over 20,000,000. Construction trade journals list over 4,000 construction accounting software programs that actually work well for the construction industry.
Enterprise level contractors with 100+ employees need to invest several million dollars to buy implement and install construction accounting software.
Professional level contractors with 50-100 employees need to invest several hundred thousand dollars to buy implement and install construction accounting software.
Professional level contractors with 20-50 employees can easily buy implement and install QuickBooks For Contractors Enterprise version for roughly $25,000.
All other contractors with 1-20 employees can purchase QuickBooks For Contractors Premier for around $500 and install it themselves or hire a construction accounting professional to setup QuickBooks for their particular need.
QuickBooks is designed to be the low price leader in Construction Accounting Software and that is O.K. because it is very customizable if you know how to do it.
