About

Argo Books is easy-to-use accounting software for small businesses that want to manage their books without the complexity. It runs as a desktop app on your own computer, so there is no account to create, it works offline, and your company file stays on your machine encrypted with AES-256. Turn receipts and statements into books: photograph a receipt and it extracts the vendor, date, total and every line item; import spreadsheets with any column layout; import bank statements and match transactions automatically. Run the rest of the business in one place: invoicing and quotes with online payments through Stripe or Square, customers and suppliers, inventory with purchase orders and returns, rental bookings, and Canadian payroll with T4s. Plan ahead with revenue forecasting, reports, an analytics dashboard, and export to spreadsheets or Google Sheets. Windows, macOS and Linux. The free plan never expires: 25 invoices, 10 scans and 25 bank imports a month.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Quickbooks Desktop support is much needed and very responsive. Great for small businesses that find the need to take control of their accounting in a professional manner. Pricing is also very competitive and there are many features to keep track of expenses, commissions and invoices.
  • There is not much I do not like about Quickbooks. It is easy to use, very intuitive and makes a business easier to run. You can keep up with inventory, pricing, vendors, customers, credit cards, invoicing and banking. There is really no end to what Quickbooks can do. You can literally reconcile bank statements and credit card statements in minutes. You can invoice customers and e-mail them and then accept payments via credit card or pay online. You can make it as detailed as you want it - it is really up to you how much or how little you use all that Quickbooks offers. Reports are so easy to do and that makes quarterly reports and end of the year for the IRS so easy to do. I recommend Quickbooks to all of my customers.
  • I have been using QuickBooks for over 15 years. I have enjoyed the ease of use in the layout. Getting to where I need to go and finding the information I need is as simple as following the flowchart type of screen on the Home screen.
  • Single database helps with faster access of data. Reliable to integrate with excel for exporting files for analysis. Great and much more effective with financial management.

Cons

  • It can be somewhat complicated and get you over your head. But if you stick with it, it's a powerful solution.
  • There is so much to like about Quickbooks that the CONS do not really even count. The expense of it is sometimes hard to stomach and then there is the need to renew every few years. That is just part of business.
  • QuickBooks isn't the best for our Construction company. We cannot get job costing correct without having to audit and manually enter some things to apply our true burden. Our company is also growing, and QuickBooks is being outgrown at this point.
  • It's best suited with financial management and user friendly.
