[Hidden-tech] Replacement for Quickbooks Pro

[Frank Aronson (Gmail)]

Stefan -

I'm using Freshbooks (www.freshbooks.com) and it works great.  However, it
is not a cheaper substitute.  Depending on your needs, it can run from free
to $480 per year.  In order to support up to 25 clients will cost you $240
per year.  I'm sure there are other alternatives, however.

Hope this helps,
Frank

Hi Everyone,

I have been happily using Quickbooks Pro for my time billing and invoicing
needs up until now. I just got a notice from them that they will no longer
support my "ancient" (sarcasm intended) 2008 version of Quickbooks Pro. They
are enforcing this by removing the feature of emailing a PDF invoice to my
clients. This is a wonderful feature that they will be disabling on
5/31/2011 in a blatant attempt to get me to pay $200 to upgrade just to keep
that feature. I'm really pissed.

I am now looking for other software so that they will lose my business. My
needs are pretty simple. I want to be able to set up clients, track time for
projects, send invoices based on time spent and receive payments against the
invoices. I would like to be able to email my invoices to my clients in some
way. 
That's pretty much
it. I don't actually use any of the rest of the accounting functions of
Quickbooks.

Does anyone have any recommendations? My computer is a Windows 7 PC.

Thanks,
Stefan
