Attending the QuickBooks Online Accountant update webinar!

Checking out all the new features of QuickBooks Online Accountant edition, and how my clients can benefit!

Here are some of the features that I found most interesting/helpful:

  • new inventory enhancements in the next couple of months, probably get us close to features in the desktop version
  • box.com free account integration for storing documents, clients can upload
  • better wholesale pricing for my clients - 50% discount off posted rates for life, and clients can have unlimited users

 

Microsoft Cloud

As a Microsoft Partner I received an email this morning about the announcement regarding Microsoft to "deliver locally hosted Microsoft Cloud services –Microsoft Azure, Office 365 and Dynamics CRM Online – from Canada!"

It's still early, put hopefully this will result in better pricing for Canadian small businesses who operate in the cloud.

Can the other providers be far behind?
