What can be a good accounting software for managing financial details of a hosting company? Till now i've tried with MYOB but it seems more complex to me:crazy:

Try Quickbooks or Accpac Simply accounting. I personally perfer Quickbooks.

Quickbooks have a wide range of products in their family. Which one do you use?

We've been using Simply Accounting Pro for years to do our books. Quickbooks is more user friendly, but it would seem that Simply Accounting is prefered by professional bookkeepers & accountants.

Check with our accountant and see what they'd prefer you to use.

I would go with Quickbooks Pro if you've never dealt with accounting before. It has a more user friendly and straightforward interface, and also some nice features such as search tools that QB basic does not have.

Greetings:

QuickBooks or PeachTree.

Thank you.

Hrmm... That should have been Check with your accountant and see what they'd prefer you to use. :)

Darn 15 minute post edit restrictions.

I would recommend Quickbooks Online. you can check your accounting even when you are on the road with this.

QuickBooks is a favorite of most consumers, but our accountant prefers PeachTree. OfficeMax and Staples have run deals recently where you can get PeachTree free after rebate (normally over $200, I believe). If you're on a tight budget and don't mind rebates, that's something to consider.

I don't know about that. Might want to check with your accountant first. Get whatever they're using as that will make your life much easier.

Quickbooks is really easy to use.

Another vote for quickbooks - also quicken if you want to manage personal finances as well.

Just wish there was an import from our hosting system to it

Too many votes for Quickbooks and QBpro. :) That sounds good.

Quickbooks does the job. Can't say I am in love with the product. It is not as easy to use as Quicken but still is pretty straight forward. The key is to make sure your chart of accounts (and the way you use those accounts) works for both you and your accountant.

Well, not just that, but Quickbooks can manage practically any business regardless it being hosting or whatever.... always need this to help you out with managing your business.

Goodluck with business
