We have used Intuit for the past 11 years. Their integration with QuickBooks is the best we have ever used. We used ADP previously for over 15 years and it was a nightmare trying to read those reports (for example when you file the workman's comp). Also, you end up with 2 sets of books since they don't integrate with your bookkeeping system.
I have to add that QuickBooks is something like Microsoft in that they make changes just so they can force you to upgrade - they tell you that you need to upgrade in order to keep using the payroll. The upgrades usually mess things up just like Microsoft so you have 10 months of frustration trying to find things. They move things around and change the names. Maybe they hired some of the stupid software designers from Microsoft. I would rather just pay a toll now and then and keep the program I know how to use. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Gil Hale" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, December 22, 2008 8:07 PM Subject: RE: [NF] MicroSoft Exchange Training ADP and Paychex both have excellent services also.
