Editions of QuickBooks
For 2009 Intuit officially offers 27 different versions of QuickBooks; however, this is mostly a marketing gimmick because 25 of these versions are merely lighter editions of the primary product QuickBooks Accountant’s Edition 2009. The Accountant’s Edition contains all of the features from all of the other products combined (except for the online and point-of-sale editions) - Intuit simply turns off selected features to produce differing and lower cost editions of the product. As proof, consider that the Accountant’s Edition can produce all of the industry specific reports. As further proof, consider that the Accountant’s Edition’s appearance can be toggled to look like any of the other products. This toggle feature makes it easier for a consultant to quickly change their menus to match those menus of a client that is being supported via telephone.
As a marketing strategy, Intuit produces multiple versions at differing price points in order to appeal to users in specific industries and companies of differing sizes. The 27 versions of QuickBooks with the number of supported users and SRP for each product are summarized below.
