Hi, I have recently set up my own bookkeeping business after completing my training using Sage 50.  I have applied for a one day bookkeeping job who use Quickbooks online (they said prior knowledge of Quickbooks wasnt essential) - how different is Quickbooks from Sage? and how easy is it to pick up quickly?

I also have a working knowledge of using Moneysoft and excel as that is what was being used buy the clients but as only new to bookkeeping its limited experience.

Does anyone know of any Quickbook training available to give me a bit of an idea how it works?

Thanks

Allison

Hi Allison.  I did my training on Sage Instant and then went on to use Sage 50 for a client.  I have now moved him onto QuickBooks online and I much prefer it.  It is quite different, but easy to get the hang of.  QuickBooks do webinars and online training and you can download a sample company to play with.  The support at QuickBooks is excellent - just a direct phone call and I have always found them very empathetic and helpful.

Hope this helps!
