Intuit announced that they will no longer be selling NEW licenses to QuickBooks PC Desktop Premier. What this means for you:
By July October 2024 you must be using a Subscription version NOT the CD/Standalone version
Beginning October 1st, 2024 only QB Enterprise will be sold for Desktop PC users
The annual subscription rate for QB Desktop Premier is $949. QB Enterprise Silver (which is the basic version) is $1,128 per user when purchased through your friendly ProAdvisor. So, Intuit is phasing out QB Desktop Premier and replacing it with QB Enterprise.
Of course, Intuit is trying to force/encourage/cajole everyone to migrate to QB Online. However QB Online Plus (which is the version with Inventory and budgets) is $1,080 for 1 to 5 users so it is not necessarily a lower cost option. As I have discussed in previous blog posts, QB Online is not powerful enough for a winery with over about 3,000 case annual production. Read the Blog Post
