Sage BusinessWorks is a Step Up from QuickBooks 
 
We are hearing from some of our customers that their accountant or new bookkeepers are considering changing their accounting system to QuickBooks.  At first look, it appears that QuickBooks is a less expensive purchase.  However, one reseller who was actively selling both programs suggested that the cost of ownership (the original purchase price and annual upgrades) was higher for QuickBooks over a 5 year period.  Also, the cost of data conversion and training should be considered when thinking about changing your program. 
 
We do recommend QuickBooks for those businesses where the owners are actually operating the accounting software and they make all deposits, print, sign and reconcile all of the checking accounts.  However, the ability to delete transactions in QuickBooks creates risk to any owner that does not perform all or some of the above cash functions.
