Good QuickBooks Hosting Helps Bottom-line

By John Adams


Maybe you've heard, you could use a good QuickBooks hosting solution and didn't know what it meant or if it even applied to your business. If your business has more than one office, Cloud hosting might make things simpler by centralizing the location of your data.

Imagining QuickBooks Hosting.

Pretend you are signing into QuickBooks on your computer from anywhere. Location of your staff or even yourself is not really a cause of concern. As long as you can get to the internet, you can get to your QuickBooks.

Visualize this, and you've got the idea of hosted QuickBooks. To make it happen there is no need for servers or an IT department.

Now concentrate on your current configurations to use the QuickBooks. WAN, VPN connections, office servers, remote desktop connections, and terminal services are most likely phrases you have heard, but possibly not understood, in relation to connecting with your QuickBooks files.

When you possess the Cloud hosting solution, then you don't need anything else. Your IT department should be Cloud hosting. That's right, you are outsourcing all the geeky IT stuff that is needed to make all of this work to a company known as a QuickBooks hosting service. All the heavy lifting on their end are done by their team of trained experts so you don't have to.

eDashboard is a QuickBooks hosting solution and hosts Sage, Lacerte, Peachtree etc are various application hosting plans. It can work with QuickBooks Pro, Premier or Enterprise software, so you have flexibility to meet the needs of your business. You can also host Fishbowl Inventory, Smart Vault, and QVinci.

Is utilizing a quickbooks hosting service costly? Can you inform me the cost that I have to bear for configuring and running your QuickBooks hardware and software? The cost are hidden in your profit and loss. In-house IT isn't really necessary. It really doesn't contribute anything that differentiates the business. So why do it? Why invest those resources, and that time and energy in building an IT infrastructure that doesn't differentiate you in whatever the core value of your business is? You're much better off taking those resources and that management time and focusing on new customers, new products, new differentiation, than worrying about building an IT organization just so you can run your in-house application. Software-as-a-Service replaces IT. You're avoiding all that cost, all that hassle, things like capacity planning meetings, budgeting for IT, all that goes away. The cost depends on services you deem necessary.

Cloud hosting services cost money. Make sure you compare your options accordingly. Remember to add the convenience factor when you are doing the calculations.
