3.0 out of 5 stars You can get Office Account Express 2007 for free, November 28, 2006
This review is from: QuickBooks Simple Start 2007 [OLDER VERSION] (CD-ROM)
QuickBooks is, deservedly, the standard bearer of small business accounting software. The new Simple Start version is meant to make it very easy for the small business owner to get started in everyday accounting (probably more like bookkeeping to purists). However, I want to alert you to Microsoft's free Office Accounting Express 2007 which offers the same features but is truly free. You can download OAE at ideawins dot com, a Microsoft website. The OAE 2007 was recommended in the Nov. 15, 2006 New York Times.

Whichever software you choose, good luck with your business!

1.0 out of 5 stars What they don't tell you....., March 17, 2007
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: QuickBooks Simple Start 2007 [OLDER VERSION] (CD-ROM)
It seems that all previous Quickbook versions will not run on Windows Vista and I had upgraded my system. So, I bought Simple Start as the least expensive way to get a Quickbook product to run on Vista. Turns out Simple start runs fine on Vista BUT you cannot load a company file from earlier versions. Thus, Simple Start was simply useless to me. When I called Intuit customer service they said that for another $100 they'd give me a license number that would unlock that feature. By that time I was committed and had no choice. Talk about getting ripped off!!!

4.0 out of 5 stars Good product, but bad information for this version, January 15, 2007
This review is from: QuickBooks Simple Start 2007 [OLDER VERSION] (CD-ROM)
I have used Quickbooks Basic for a number of years both in my church and for my business. I have kept QB 2004 Basic since the upgrades were not immediately necessary for me.

I chose to upgrade this year to keep current on maintenance, etc. so again I chose the most basic product offered - "Simple Start". I received it just fine and it installed perfectly.

However, it does not upgrade any previous QB files. As I investigated, Intuit says that it won't upgrade files from previous QB versions on their web site (albeit in small print) and on the product box itself, but that was not ever mentioned in the Amazon listing.

So then I had to upgrade to the next higher version - an additional $80. QB Pro also works very well; it's just a shame that Intuit insists on misleading customers by not providing full information through all marketing channels. The Intuit phone rep also tried to overcharge me $20 for the upgrade but quickly accepted the correct amount when I pointed out their error a second time.
