UPDATE: Intuit is making it harder and harder to get the desktop version, and it does require a monthly or annual subscription.
The reseller mentioned in our video is no longer able to offer the Desktop Pro or Premier versions; they only have access to Enterprise.
The best way to get access to Pro or Premier is to upgrade the software. Here’s a how-to article: quickbooks.intuit.com/learn-support/en-us/help-article/update-products/upgrade-quickbooks-desktop-pro-plus-premier-plus/L8B6lkyCq_US_en_US
If you are looking for the most cost-effective option, check out the Simple Start version of QuickBooks Online.
I do have a special link for new users that gives you the first month for free and a discounted rate for 12 months: CandusKampfer.com/qbo
Boycott Intuit!!! How is everyone not in a rage over this?
Agree. This is authoritarian. Don't trust this one bit. Not to mention pure greed.
All part of the track-trace-database technocracy the WEF and their acolytes are pushing. Anything put online is now property of shady gov't agencies who, as Trudeau showed via the trucker protest, will use hosted cloud services as a form of attack on those who don't comply.
Using the desktop version is definitely a safer option if you are concerned about the integrity of your client's data, QBO will always be a riskier alternative because there will be hacking and data leaks. They are a bigger target for attacks.
100% agree.
i like desktop, because you have privacy when you install in yours own servers, i dont need pay every month
Will continue with Desktop...
Why would you buy a new car every time your oil change is due
This is Intuit's way of fleecing us out of our hard earned money. As an accountant I am not excited about it either.....so many new clients are using the online version that I am FORCED to learn it. I am looking at Patriot Software to switch my payroll processing for stand alone client files. This is the wrong time of year to have to do any changing.....
Wow, so if I upgrade to the subscription and don't pay every year, I can't access my files. Not a question, just a statement. Nothing like being held hostage. Because I outsource my payroll and don't use access online banking thru the bank, I will just keep my desktop for a while.
Agreed, keeping my desktop & recommending a payroll service to clients
I just upgraded from 2016 desktop (loved it, easy to use... have used similar versions since 2010). Just "upgraded" to the online version at $30/month due to a myriad of reasons.
This experience is similar to the time when Microsoft did the that huge "upgrade" / change to Excel. I was an Intermediate user for years and became a beginner with the newest version.
At least I'll be forced to learn something new.
And your videos are helping.
Thank you!!!

Will continue to use Desktop.
Candus - I used to use QB for business when I had my own business. I have continued to use QB and upgraded in 2020 for my own personal use. I love it for my own personal because it is fast, easy, very familiar and that is the only thing I use it for. Because I use it for personal use only, I do not download any online services, do payroll, online banking, none of it. All of my backups are local on flash drive. The only thing I do "online" are the updates they send. Will I lose files or anything if I don't upgrade? I could use your advice.
Thank you for watching our videos 😊
No, you should be fine, you just won't receive future updates.

I do not use most of the features of QA. We have a few rentals and i use QB to import transactions from banks and cc and the categories on checks is helpful. WE done do payroll or invoices etc. we have sold some of the rentals so now it only is for maintenance and income on 3 or 4 properties. I never plan to expand use of QB. And has been a bear since last year or so when i was getting multiple imports of same transaction (almost had me in tears) So give that this is all we use can you recommend a direction
I have QB 2020 for Mac. The only thing I do online for my desktop version is download transactions from my bank and credit cards. Does that fall under the category of "online banking?" I don't do payroll, send invoices or anything else, so I'd like to just continue using my 2020 desktop version. However, if I have to manually enter every transaction, I will likely need to switch to a much more affordable subscription. Thank you so much for the video!
Thank you for the info! We are a small business with no employees and have been using desktop, but it looks like we are going to have to migrate. When I select "Simple Start" and try to add my business, it says that it's not compatible with my subscription. Can I start without adding the business and import later? Also we have another company to manage a rental house. Do I need to purchase two subscriptions for these two businesses?
Hi Candus, You are amazing. Question Could you use a third party Credit Card processor like Elavon to avoid upgrading and still using our Quickbooks 2020 Premier desktop version?

@ Candus Kampfer: I have QB Desk Top Premier Plus Contactor 2023 edition. I use the certify payroll report. It is needed in our company reporting on certify projects that we do. Do you know if online QB had the ability to create Certify Reports like in QB desktop? Thank you.
I will continue to use my 2021 Accountant version 4/11/23
I process payroll through my 2020 nonprofit premier edition. So what I understand is I will be required to go to annual subscription using my Desktop version. I’ll have to watch this video again, but I also want to say that I pay annual subscription for payroll already. Hmmm…
Hi David,
Yes, payroll has always been an annual add-on. Now it will be annual for the QB software itself but payroll will continue to be an annual add-on.
Thank you for watching our videos 😊

I am planning on keeping QB desktop 2024. I will renew my payroll subscription in June 2024.
Hi Candus, I am using QB Desktop 2020 version. After May 31st, 2023 my QBO files from Chase I have not been able to import to my desktop. Asking me to switch to online version. Is there a workaround to this issue?
I am currently a QB Desktop for MAC user. Last year QB told me I had to switch to the annual subscription which was around $300. This year it has jumped up to over $600. I am a single user, using QB for my personal finances only. I post my own deposits, schedule my own bill pays & run a report at year end for my CPA. Do I actually need the subscription version? If not, how do cancel the subscription & still be able to use my QB Desktop for MAC? Thanks
Thank you for your video! I just want to be sure I understand correctly. I am currently using QuickBooks Pro Desktop 2019. I have retired, so no longer using it for my business and only personal use now and not using any online features. It is mainly just being used for my personal bookkeeping. I do receive a ton of alert notices that it is no longer supported and it seems I do have more glitches in the software (which I have been feeling might be QBooks messing with my software to motivate me to upgrade) but other then that it does still seem to work for me. I have been looking at alternative means to manage my personal finances (such as moving to just MS Excel) but would prefer to just stay with what is in place, familiar and manageable. Will my QuickBooks Desktop 2019 version continue to work for me??? Or should I co tiniest to explore alternatives?? Thank you.
Hi @cherylalmstrom7301,
Thank you for watching our videos 😊
If you are not using any of the discontinued features, then you should be able to continue with your version just know that it won't be supported by Intuit.
Have a great day!

So, I am a small business, actually two small businesses and believe it or not I am still using QB 2012 and it works perfectly for what we need. I have my "desktop" version on a online server - (not on my office desktop) which allows me to access my books from ANY computer that I have the online server downloaded too. I wish that I would have updated to the last desktop version before having to pay for the annual subscription. What version is the last version that does not require the annual subscription? If I can find that version would I be able to upgrade my QB2012 to that version without having to pay the annual subscription? Thank you for your response. Tony
Goood question has nobody answeres?
Hi Candus, thank you for the video. I currently have the 2016 desktop version and am getting a new computer. We do no payroll and use no add on features for our simple business. If I purchase the 2023 desktop version to install on my new computer and not renew the subscription after the 12 months will I still have access to all of my files/reports and be able to use all basic features? I understand we would have no support but we haven't had support for a number of years so that isn't a concern of mine.
Hi @user-tf7pk2px5x,
Thank you for watching our videos 😊
If you purchase the 2023 desktop version but don't renew the subscription after 12 months, you will not have access to your file.
Have a great day!

i haveb 2018 how i can upgrade desktop 2023 o 2024 for 1 user how many are the cost desktop only because they can make your bussiness in other country with the informattion they have online
Will continue with Desktop for now.
I currently use Quickbooks Desktop Pro 2020 and do not want the online version. I process payroll for 1 employee with Intuit. How do I pay to keep using the desktop version and also keep using Intuit?
Hello, thank you for posting your video. I have a question. I am currently running QB 2020 and yes they no longer support it. I called QB when they first warned about not supporting any longer and they tried to sell me the online version. I am not interested in not owning my data so I want to stay with online. They told me desktop was no longer available so when I saw your video I was surprised that I can purchase desktop 2023. My question is when you noted that if you don't pay annually you will not be able to see your data, was that only for the online version only or is that now for the desktop as well? I am going to upgrade today to the 2023 version that I did not know existed because Intuit does not want people using desktop any longer. Thank you again for your video's. I am now a subscriber! :-)

Is there any risk to buy QuickBooks Desk Top from an International distributor?
Hello, so if we continue paying the subscription we can use the bank feed option? Thank you

Candus, I am using QB Pro 2020 desktop and I am selling my business in June. I’ll need to run payroll for the 1st 2 weeks in June until new owner takes over. After that I will only need quick books for last sales tax return and payroll quarterly reports and W2’s at year end. My payroll subscription was just renewed last month but my desktop version will stop processing payroll. I don’t want to convert to online for just 2 weeks use. What are my options?

Hi Candace, We have Desktop 2021PRO with payroll and are being told we need to upgrade. We understand that though the online version is less expensive than a subscription , it is definitely different.
My husband uses it daily for invoicing ,estimates, etc. I use it for the book keeping end and payroll. I am concerned that it will cause chaos for him and that it will take me a while to adapt. Instinct is telling me to just roll it over to a subscription but will they just end up taking that away as well?
Also, Does the emailing of estimates and invoices go away as well?
Hi Missy,
Thank you for watching our video.
Yes, Intuit has made some changes and now QuickBooks Desktop is an annual subscription so you have to upgrade to the newest version that way you can continue receiving support from Intuit and keep features such as payroll and bank feeds.
For help upgrading, here's an article that will walk you through how to do that: quickbooks.intuit.com/learn-support/en-us/payments/how-do-i-upgrade-from-within-my-current-quickbooks/01/317473/thread-id/9020
If you do decide to switch to QB Online, you can use our link to the get the first month free and 12 months at a discounted rate: CandusKampfer.com/qbo

Candice, I have Desktop 2020 - 5 user license. The 5/31 QB Warking of Death deadline has passed and it looks like QB WAS able to block our ability to email invoices directly from Quickbooks... ughhh! It is not a subscribed (paid) service so I assumed this would not be an issue. Any suggestions?
My workaround is to save the invoice as a pdf and then create a separate email and send it as an attachment.
I am getting prompts that as of 5/31/23 I will lose pay enabled invoices for the desktop 2020 version. I was not planning to switch my current version to an online option after being advised by my accountant. But I really need pay enabled invoices for my customers, so I think I'm going to have to switch. Any thoughts?
Sean,
Either desktop with an annual subscription or online will offer the "merchant services" feature.
Hi Candus. Thank you for the video. I got a disturbing call from my QB provider and the were definitely selling FUD (fear, uncertainty and doubt) to push upgrading to annual subscription. I am a Desktop 2020 multi-pack user. I was told that I would not be able to bulk send invoices to clients via email if I didn't upgrade. I questioned them a multiple times and they assured me that bulk emailing of invoices capability would be cut off. They said I would have to PDF each invoice and then create individual emails and attach invoice PDF and then send emails to clients one by one. Does that seem correct to you??? I was suspicious of their claim and read the list of discontinued services (same one you presented) and the were all add-on services. We don't use any add-on services and the closest thing I could find was losing the ability to include a "payment link" in the body of your invoice emails. We don't use payment links either. Also, they emphasized, with some drama, that our QB file was way too big for Desktop and that compacting and/or deleting the audit history typically results in a corrupted file... and then you are scr**ed", they said. I deleted the audit history a couple of years ago and it did significantly reduce the file size. We have always had a large than typically QB file since we are 30 years old. Is there really a "danger size", in your opinion? We do maintain regular backups of our QB file. Thank you again for the video. I became a subscriber and will tune in to the Q/A if not too late.

Gary, the bulk emailing of invoices stop working for me yesterday 6/1/2023! I hate their tactics!
I can no longer email statements using QB 2020 desktop. I thought it was because we installed the software on a new Windows 11 computer. Still might be but I have to print each statement to a PDF and then go into my email and attach the PDF so send statements. This slows down my process substantially. :-(
It doesn't make sense, if you do the backpack file on your remote server how would this affect QB or QBO itself? It's not like you are using their cloud storage service, and nobody would because the client data would be compromised. What exactly do they mean when they say your file is too big?
They just want money, nickel, and diming just like Adobe.
I'm not clear on what you mean by "you will no longer have access to your files". Do you mean that if we don't upgrade, we won't have access to Payroll files? Or that we won't have access to ANY of the files? I currently use the 2019 Mac version of QB desktop, and was not planning to upgrade right away because I don't use payroll. But obviously, I would have to upgrade if you're saying I won't have access to any files.
Hi Kathy,
Once you upgrade to the annual subscription (any version past 2021), if you don't continue to pay each year you will lose access to all of your files. If you need to continue to use payroll and stick with Desktop, you will need to update to the annual 2023 subscription.
Have a great day!

I use QB desktop 2020 for Mac as an elementary school PTO treasurer - tracking deposits, expenses and creating checks for reimbursement. That's truly it - no payroll, live support, online backups etc. Will anything change for me on June 1st? Additionally - over the summer, I am transferring my role to someone new who will be using a PC laptop - how should I proceed with setting up my replacement treasurer, and not lose any of the old data? Thank you!!

I'm using QB pro plus desktop version that I bought on a CD. I use the manual version of payroll. Our payroll is done by an outside source. We are a small business and I planned on using this 2021 CD for years without upgrading. I don't use QB customer service or any of their services. Can I keep using it for years?
Hi Sherry,

i have QB Desktop Pro 2020. I currently only use it for Invoicing, updating my checkbook register, running a P & L, and my main task is to import into TurboTax every year when its time to do taxes. If I do not upgrade, will I still be able to import my 2023 info into TurboTax next year at tax time?

I received the e-mail about having to upgrade by 5/31/2023. I have procrastinated doing the upgrade "switch" for a number of reasons I won't belabor here. But looking at my product information I am running Premier Plus 2022 and pay annual subscription ($799) so I am thinking I do not need to upgrade. Can you confirm? I need for payroll and do not want to lose that. As someone else commented they "scare the $#*!" out of you!!!
Kassandra, If you are using 2021 and newer you will need to renewal your annual subscription to be able to process your payroll.
This happened to me before and we went to online and it was not necessary. Got 2021 desktop and once again am being bugged about upgrade. I hope I am understanding this correctly, i have our accountant do payroll and only use quickbooks for very basic estimate, invoice and entering payments when received, so sounds like we will be fine if we dont upgrade, correct. Thank you for making this video. Last time this happened it was so frustrating, spent hours on phone with quickbooks and paid up the wazoo all to find out later from our accountant that it was unecessary. Very sad
Hi,
You are correct, you don't have to upgrade your QuickBooks Desktop if you don't want to, however, if you're wanting support from Intuit then you'll need to upgrade to the annual subscription by July 31, 2024.
Here's the link to do that: quickbooks.intuit.com/learn-support/en-us/help-article/update-products/upgrade-quickbooks-desktop-pro-plus-premier-plus/L8B6lkyCq_US_en_US

I am still using the 2006 Simple Quickbooks version. For the past 2 years my tax accountant has been unable to open the backup I send her in order to do my income taxes. All I use in QB is the Cash function to add my debits and credits. What is the least price desktop version I can purchase that will enable me to send backup or export files to send to my accountant?
Hi,
The best option would be to either get the annual subscription of Desktop or get QuickBooks Online. If you decide to purchase QBO, you can use our link to get the first month free and 12 months at a discounted rate: CandusKampfer.com/qbo.
Or you can just send your accountant your P&L 🤗

Will you still be able to e-mail invoices-statement to clients?

Thanks for reaching out.
You probably won't be able to, but you can manually download it as a PDF and then send it through whatever email you want.

if i upgrade to the desktop version do i have to pay every year or every three years?
Once you upgrade you'll be on the annual plan.
Because I do not use the payroll features, I am still using QBD Pro 2017. I have no intention of going to the online version. I have used it at clients offices, I hate it. I don't like the user interface. QBD flow feels better and I believe more user friendly.
I have been using Qikbooks for twenty years or so and in order to switch I have ONE question: Can I use/pay for the online version for both my personal and business accounts? I am retired just use business account for basic functions (no payrole reports etc.)
Thank you for watching our videos 😊

I am new to QuickBooks. I’ve tried downloading the desktop version and unable. Is the desktop version available for download. When searching QuickBooks the only version I find available is the online version. Thanking you in advance for your help.
Edith,
Yes, if you purchase the desktop version you can download it.
If you need a reseller email us support@canduskampfer.com and we will refer you to someone.
I don’t get it! I have the 2022 desktop version and I don’t use payroll. I am unable to access my files now. Is that correct? I thought I didn’t have to and you stated that I don’t need to.
Christine, If you are using a 2022 year, you are on an annual subscription. 2020 was the "cut-off" year. You would need to renew to keep using the software.
Does that make sense?
@@CandusKampfer Well for tax purposes and P & L Reports shouldn't I have access to my data? I no longer use QB. for my business.
I panic at the thought of losing my data after 12 years. I did change over to online in June, but not thrilled about it since it is a little arbitrary at assigning to chart accounts. Seems like if I change one it changes all of them in a reconicilation period. I felt I had more control in Desktop.
Hi Iris,
Thank you for reaching out.
I'm sorry to hear that you're not enjoying the transition from QB Desktop to Online. I'm sure it's not been super easy.

Hi - I am about to retire, and I run three companies on QBO. I also have companies running QBDT. I grudge paying for QBO. Can I migrate the data files from QBO to QBDT? I don't mind if I don't get upgrades. If I continue to use QBD, should I have Upgrades switched off?
Hi Don,
Thank you for reaching out.
You can move stuff over from Online to Desktop, but you'll need to do some research on it. It's up to you if you want your upgrades on or not.

i had QB Desktop 2016 then they updated to 2019 and now they tell me i have no licence. I can only upgrade if i pay $600 a year. Typical monopoly they hold you hostage to their online service that i don't need. I believe i don't need it b/c i don't do online banking, no employees, no payroll, etc. I only use QB to create PO's , Invoices and end of year P&L. What would be the best fit for me ? any other brand or basic system to manage small business you'd suggest ?
Hi Christian,

can I still use my 2020 Quickbooks Desktop Pro for Mac? I don’t use any online features. I use exclusively online. but I called Intuit and the Indian call center employee told me that I can no longer use my desktop version offline, because my password will no longer work to access my files. I think he is lying, can anyone confirm?
So I am still not clear. I am a bookkeeper and all my clients have their own subscription. I have personally have QuickBooks Desktop Accountant 2022 and 2023. I am currently using 2022 version for my personal business and one other. Do I need to get a subscription? I certainly do not want to buy one if I don't have to. I don't use bank feeds or do payroll, I just use it to create invoices and prepare books for my CPA. I do not want to purchase the new accountant subscription but should I get a Pro subscription?
I am afraid that my Accountant software will become unusable after the deadline and then I won't be able to obtain a subscription for Pro after May 31.
Hi Gina,
Thank you for watching our video.
Yes, Intuit has made some changes and now QuickBooks Desktop is an annual subscription so you have to upgrade to the newest version that way you can continue receiving support from Intuit and keep features such as payroll and bank feeds.
For help upgrading, here's an article that will walk you through how to do that: quickbooks.intuit.com/learn-support/en-us/payments/how-do-i-upgrade-from-within-my-current-quickbooks/01/317473/thread-id/9020
If you have any additional questions, you can email us at support@canduskampfer.com.
Have a great day!

I really do not want to switch to online. I'm using Pro 2021 at the moment. Can you recommend an option for me?
Hi,
Thanks for watching our videos.
The easiest way to stick with Pro would be to upgrade from the application. Here's a link if you would like to know how to do that: quickbooks.intuit.com/learn-support/en-us/help-article/update-products/upgrade-quickbooks-desktop-pro-plus-premier-plus/L8B6lkyCq_US_en_US

I don’t get it! I have the 2022 MAC desktop version and I don’t use payroll, I use to send invoices. so I am unable to access my files now. Is that correct? or I need to pay annually??
Hi @pacor.4325,
If you have a 2020 or newer version, then it will require an annual subscription to access your file. I hope this helps answer you question.

Thank you
Hello, I can't stand QB, which I've had for years, which is also why I'd like to switch from QB desktop to another desktop software that's designed for that purpose, so it's seamless, easy migration, almost identical, with built-in shipping manager, etc.
Is there such a thing, & if so, which is the best?
Thank you...

What is the change with Quickbooks desktop?
Can you clarify your question, I'm not sure what you mean?
We don’t use any online or payroll. I just use it for tracking small businesses. Am I still going to have to pay just to access my files?? Ugh!!
If you are not using the discontinued features, then you shouldn't need to upgrade unless you want support from Intuit. 😁

Want to make sure I understand - using subscription desktop 2022 Pro Plus. If I stop my subscription, I will no longer be able to access my file?
Why not just upgrade to 2023, like Candus says?
this stuff is old lol but i guess its happeng again this year
