I’ve been using Quickbooks Online for nearly 7 years. When they released an app for Mac, I was ecstatic. Over the years however, I have found the app to be increasingly buggy. Lately the bugs have gotten so bad that I can’t even use the app. One company will be stuck on a screen which you cannot exit. Sign out; switch companies; uninstall / reinstall the app; try on a different computer; etc. I’m unsure what the heck is going on.. but in the end it annoys the heck out of me. For the last several months, I’ve had to use a combination of the app and web browser to get anything done. And today I finally had enough. I have uninstalled the app and will switch to the web browser moving forward.
To be clear - I don’t have issues accessing and using QB Online from a web browser. It is only this particular application with which I have trouble. My suggestion… stick with the browser. This is nothing more than a buggy wrapper over top of the interface you are already familiar with in your browser. There are no other features (and in fact sometimes fewer) when compared to the browser version. There is only convenience. But with bugs constantly reducing productivity? It’s just not worth it.
