If you own a business DO NOT BUY or DO NOT UPGRADE to QB 2009! Oct 25, 2008
By TheBlade I cannot believe Intuit has completely destroyed this product with the 2009 version.
Downloading transactions and matching into a bank account or credit card account is a waste of time and I do mean waste of actual time. We download sometimes 50-100 banking transactions a day and a similar number of credit card transactions. The ability to automatically match those transactions is extemely old school ( a major regression for QB ) as each one must be done manually one by one. Gone is the "add multiple" to allow QB the ability to matchup payees and aliases. That feature allowed the input of hundreds of transactions in less than 5 seconds. Now hundreds of transactions will take no less than 5 hours.
This is the single biggest change between 2008 and 2009, completely for the worse. Any other changes are strictly smoke and mirrors to sell something new with glitz and glamour. If your business generate more than a few banking transactions a day or week, stay away from version 2009. Your online banking "time" will increase to an amount that it will take away from other tasks.
Aside from rushing Quicken and Quickbooks to market with major bug problems in each of the last few years and also sending support calls to India, removing the "add multiple" feature from online banking is the single biggest blunder Intuit has ever made.
Thankfully, I have a backup of my QB 2008 file. It's time to uninstall 2009 and re-install 2008!!!!
Consider yourself warned...

Intuit is just plain freakin' EVIL Nov 10, 2008
By Richard Quarles
"Rich Quarles"
Intuit is exploitative of the small business market that it has in its thrall. As I type this, I am on hold with tech support.. again... just trying to get the program to work reliably. (15 minutes on hold this time... no answer yet...)
From forcing annual upgrades to random error codes that require reinstallation and laborious validation routines, Intuit makes using QuickBooks a nightmare. Further, every annual "upgrade" makes the interface harder to use and more cluttered with "services" that are simply advertisements for Intuit upgrades.
Aaargh. I'm tired of putting up with Intuit's abusive customer "care". I'm finding a new accounting solution.
Current problem: Quickbooks has stopped launching altogether. It pops up the error "Quickbooks reached the expiration date and will no longer open company files" and leaves you with grayed out menu items for evrything but Help and Exit.
Update: Total On hold time 1 hour-- then Intuit insisted that I pay for a tech support package-- since I had registered the product "almost 30 days ago". I couldn't believe it.
I finally figured out the problem on my own: Go to the Help menu--> Manage My Lisc.--> Reregister the product. Exit. Re-launch. Works.
To solve the problem with THEIR product registration scheme, Intuit wanted to charge me almost $100.

"Uopgrade" Drops Critical Bank Transaction Download Automation Oct 18, 2008
By A. Whitton
"Houston reader"
I upgraded to QB2009 Pro from QB2006 Pro. QB2006 provided a means to download and automatically enter bank information. I get several bank deposits from my credit card company every day. Under QB2006, this was automatically entered in about 20 seconds, using the "Add Multiple" button in the Bank Download. Under QB2009, I must manually enter all the data for payee, account and amount. One cannot enter the class, and must exit the download, then select each new transaction and edit it to change the class. This is a horrible HORRIBLE waste of time. The poor software design of this "new" feature overwhelms all the other potential benefits of the new features they implemented in QB2009. Watch out! Intuit's sales blurb claims that QB2009 improves the download automation. That is complete baloney.
Quickbooks User Community says this is the #1 issue on tech support, but Intuit has still not addressed the User Forum to acknowledge the defect or indicate when it might be fixed.
My advice is DO NOT BUY THIS SOFTWARE UNTIL THE BANK TRANSACTION DOWNLOAD AUTOMATION is fixed.
I am returning the software for credit and will end up buying QB2008.

Idiots oversaw this upgrade Nov 10, 2008
By Andrew H. Zack I haven't encountered an upgrade I regretted making as much as I regret my upgrade to QuickBooks Pro 2009 since WordPerfect 6.0. You may recall that was the upgrade that all but killed WordPerfect and gave Microsoft Word the ability to become number one.
I upgraded from QuickBooks 2006, mostly because I needed to upgrade my payroll subscription and the cost to do both differed by only $50. I deeply regret it.
Downloading and reconciling credit card and banking transactions will now take at least twice if not several times longer. The dropdown lists only work if you know the account number (perhaps if you don't have "use account numbers" checked off in preferences, it will work alphabetically, but it should work BOTH WAYS!).
QuickBooks had, since an early update to 2006, stopped sending online transactions through in the same order you entered them. This requires me to log on twice, because if I'm doing a transfer from account A to account B to account C, QuickBooks often tries to send it through from Account B to C and then from A to B and my bank rejects it for insufficient funds. So I have to log onto my bank's server twice to do the A to B and then the B to C. Very annoying and I was sure they would have fixed it by now and they have not.
Heck, these guys even made it harder to back up your file. Now it takes several steps. It used to take one. Sure, now you can create a portable copy or an accountant's copy, but do you need to see those options each time you want to make a backup? I think not.
Nothing I see happening in QuickBooks development has made the program better. In fact, if anything, it's made it harder and more time-consuming to use. Ignore this upgrade until Intuit starts asking customers what they want instead of TELLING them what idiocy they have to put up with.

Call to Register! Say What!!!! Dec 03, 2008
By J. Ream
"getalonglittledoggie"
I just finished installing QuickBooks 2009. I have all kinds of software installed on my computer, some costing as little a few bucks to as much as several thousand and none of them require me to CALL A SERVICE CENTER to register my software! All of the information I provided OVER THE PHONE could have been done on line more accurately. It's a joke to think customers are going to be OK with this; I don't want to take my time to call Intuit to just answer their marketing questions. I really want to find a good alternative to QuickBooks; with all the complaints I read about this program and now this, I'm really motivated to start a search for a better accounting software.
