Intuit today announced the forthcoming debut of QuickBooks for Mac 2012, the latest version of the company's financial management software for small businesses. The new OS X Lion-optimized version is set to ship on September 26th and will offer over 50 new features and enhancements.
"As more and more small businesses adopt Macs, we see increased adoption of QuickBooks for Mac," said Dan Wernikoff, senior vice president and general manager of Intuit's Financial Management Solutions division. "In response, we've recommitted ourselves to making the product even better. With Apple's new Lion OS, we focused on a simple, elegant and easy to use native experience, while continuing to add new features that save small businesses time."
Among the enhancements included in QuickBooks for Mac 2012:
- Faster access to information enabled by improved search tools, customer and vendor history panels and transactions lists - Simplifications for multi-step tasks, including batch processing for online banking transactions and new invoicing options
QuickBooks for Mac 2012 will be available through Intuit beginning September 26th and a number of other third-party retailers, including Apple's online and retail stores, as of October 9th. Pricing is set at $229.95 for a single user, with 2-user pricing coming in at $439.95 and 3-user pricing at $599.95. Additional licenses are available for $209.95 each.
Puh-leeze. QuickBooks is a piece of junk. So QuickBooks 2012 for Mac has finally caught up to QuickBooks 1995 for Windows?
QuickBooks for Mac will never, ever, ever, ever hold a candle to the BEST accounting package for the Mac, which is AccountEdge.
And anybody who believes that Intuit actually gives a damn about the Mac platform clearly hasn't been paying attention to how Intuit has treated all their loyal Quicken customers of over 20 years. Intuit is a horrible company that makes horrible products with horrible customer service (straight to you from India!).
I wouldn't give Intuit one more penny of my money if my life depended on it.
Even after all these years, Intuit still doesn't offer multi-currency support, payroll support on the Mac, the ability to create purchase orders from estimates/invoices, parity with the Windows products, cross-platform file compatibility, and much much much more.
I support REAL COMPANIES that make GREAT PRODUCTS that WHOLEHEARTEDLY SUPPORT THE MAC... such as AccountEdge (for business accounting) and iBank (for personal finances).
Sure, AccountEdge and iBank both have their problems too, but at least they CARE about their Mac customers and WANT to continually make the best products for Mac users. I will ONLY be using AccountEdge and iBank from now on.
Intuit has shown their true colors, and they are a disgusting company. Intuit can go to hell.
I still don't see anything about multiple currencies, which is the only reason we still have the Windows version. :(
EDIT: I do see it, in the "Which features, if currently used, would make it difficult to switch from QuickBooks for Windows?" question in the FAQ.
The following features available in QuickBooks for Windows are not currently available in QuickBooks for Mac:
QuickBooks Payroll Services, like Basic, Enhanced and Assisted Payroll Accountant's Copy Access to 3rd party applications that integrate to QuickBooks for Windows via the QuickBooks SDK Multiple currencies Units of Measure Price levels Inventory assemblies Online bill pay and funds transfer Industry-specific reports and features
