The reason teams switch
Why customers are leaving QuickBooks
Prices up 275% since 2020 — another 15–25% increase effective May 2026
QuickBooks has raised prices repeatedly. The Advanced plan (25 users) is now $235/mo — up from $150 in 2022. Another 15–25% hike takes effect May 2026. You're locked into a subscription that gets more expensive every year.
5-user cap on the Simple Start plan — 25 users costs $235/mo
The most common plan limits you to 5 users. Growing your team means a near 3× price jump to the Advanced tier, plus re-training your whole team on new features they didn't ask for.
No CRM, HR, or project connection
Quotes in your CRM have to be manually re-entered as invoices. There's no native link between what you sold and what you bill — just repeated data entry.
