We run a Windows 7 VM for quick books. Never notice it eating a lot of
resources when it's idle.. Seems like the couple times a week you log in it
would be easy enough to run updates while your doing your work. If it needs
to reboot, do it when your done and who cares how long the rest of it
takes.
That never ends well on Windows servers =(

Windows will automatically install most updates on its own at a schedule you

You need to update the thing every week, of course. Don't necessarily use
Quickbooks every day.

I happened to help a small 501.c3 transition their desktop Quickbooks
Enterprise company file to Quickbooks Online about 18months ago, since the
Windows box in question had its days numbered.
They're using the entry level pricing tier at ~$25/month (possibly
discounted somewhat due to 501.c3), one
So if you don't use it on a continual basis, who cares how long it takes to
update?

Updating on Linux is so much faster and cleaner than Windows. Once it is
done you don't even have to reboot unless you want the new kernel...which
is a simple reboot and isn't an extended reboot doing more installing
before and after halt...

Do you even Linux updates, bro?
I didn't find the resource usage excessive, but maybe my environment is larger
than yours?

I used to have it running on a Windows server in my virtual environment...
until that server (Windows 2003) finally died.
Run it in your existing virtual environment?

I am now. I want to get away from it. If it was Linux it wouldn't be a
big deal but the Windows updates and excessive resources make it a pain.

We are using Right Networks. It's garbage. We did the ROI on what we are
using it for and are going back to hosting quickbooks in house. Less
latency and less downtime that way.

Any idea what AWS would cost for something like this? I feel like it would
eat lots of resources all day every day and I'd only use it a couple of
hours a week tops. It would be annoying to shut it down to save resources,
too.

You could also go the vm route using aws / rackspace / ect. I’ve heard from
some people that the online quickbooks is not as full featured as the
application version.

Well I guess $50/month to drop the one Windows server seems worth it to
me. Hopefully it's an easy transition (lol I know it's Intuit).
