Before Personal Computers - Business owners relied on secretaries to type letters and bookkeepers to generate reports.
Business Owners - And managers were at the mercy of staff members. Things got done when and if staff members were in the mood to work and if they were not performing in any drama scenes.
Early Word Processing - And spreadsheet tools were assigned to the secretaries and bookkeepers to learn and use.
Early Adopter Businesses Owners - Earned more money than their competition because they harnessed the power of technology and became less dependent on staff to get letters and reports generated. Those business owners and managers experienced tremendous increases in production and profits.
History is being repeated as CPA's Bookkeepers and Accountants tell business owners:
You don't need to get to your QuickBooks because that is my job!
It is impossible for more than one person to be inside QuickBooks at a time!
QuickBooks Online is not the same as the desktop version with limited usefulness!
Putting QuickBooks on a computer server is unreliable and expensive to setup and maintain!
#1 Is Disturbing - Because it is an attempt to control and manipulate business owners and managers into believing they need to rely on the "Grand PooBahs" to pass out reports when and if they deem them necessary. We believe knowledge is power and that you need 24/7 access to your reports in order to make strategic decisions about the direction of your company.
#2 Is False - Because with a simple network in your office many people can be on QuickBooks at the same time. However, maintaining the stability of QuickBooks and having reliable backups could be a problem. As many business find out the hard way if QuickBooks is not backed up and a disaster occurs they are out of business quick.
#3 Is True -Because Intuit's QuickBooks Online it is not a fully functional desktop version which means it has very limited invoicing, payroll and reporting capabilities. If you are a construction firm operating in Washington State you may be experiencing some serious problems with DOR, SUI and L&I reporting. If you are using QuickBooks Online we can convert the data into the desktop version for you...call Sharie at 206-361-3950
#4 Has Some Truth - Because computer servers are expensive to buy and maintain. And part of the maintenance is making sure the servers are in a secured location with armed guards, redundant electricity backups, offsite electricity in another part of the country away from the main facility in case of major catastrophes like floods, earthquakes, wild fires or terrorist attacks.

Print anything directly from QuickBooks, Word or Excel on your own printer
In my opinion there are four main reasons other services do not allow access to QuickBooks:
You could generate, view and print any report anytime you want it and be less dependent on them
They refuse to make a serious commitment to your success by investing the $10,000 +/- to do it right
You may discover you need a bookkeeping service that understands your industry with special skills
