Overall, I have no intention of leaving QuickBooks.
Pros
QuickBooks is easy to import into, export out of and directly integrate with certain platforms. The software was built with the user experience in mind.
Cons
The price is a bit higher than the competition, so technically its a con. However, I don't consider this a negative because sometimes you get what you pay for and I found QBO to have better features and a better reputation as a whole.
The support is not as easy to work with as I would like. But compared to some of the competiton, its better than not having any.

Bank transaction downloads, account reconciliation, payment and invoice recording, tax reporting.
The experience has been fraught with frustration, loads of rework, arcane and unexplained entry rules, dead end data experiences, all punctuated by frequent Intuit attempts to reach for more money out of my pocket.
Pros
Basic functions of creating payments, invoices, bills, checks, etc are workable and fairly intuitive.
Banking Center makes initially downloading bank transactions fairly simple.
Once you modify a report to the point where it is useful, QB can memorize it for ongoing use.
As soon as you get beyond those, best to get prepared with an accounting degree, lots of time to do google searches, and some antacid or aspirin.
Cons
1) if you want to do any interaction with exported files or bank downloads, be prepared to be gouged for the price of a new license every 3 years.
2) for that repurchase, you get very little to nothing improved except more ways Intuit can offer add-ons (for a price).
3) reports are available mostly in standard accounting formats. Detailed custom listings are hard to get at best via the transaction lists. For line items you took the time to enter into a Bill, it's literally impossible.
4) Bank Feeds transaction approval screens are an abomination. Modifying/adding columns: not possible. Finding a rule that auto modifies your entry: good luck. Figuring out how to make a new rule: better google it. Figuring out how to reverse an accidental entry: get out the antacid and aspirin. If that downloaded tran should have been a bill pmt, get stronger antacid.
5) transaction lists: hope you only want to see either ALL, Current Period, Last Period or Next Period. Else get used to a boatload of sorting and scrolling, because there's no way to bracket your data within custom dates.
6) Home screen: want a clean simple Home to find your functions quickly? Too bad; Intuit would rather hit you with marketing. Want to see only a few Account Balances and hide those you never use? Sorry!
7) Support: virtually non-existent outside of the QB User forums, so hope that someone else has asked your question already.
Has any developer at Intuit ever held a user focus group or been a user?
