Having worked for several small companies going back 15 years I have used many accounting software programs, all the way back to Peachtree for DOS. I have also used Quickbooks which is the competitive product, sort of. If you are an accountant Peachtree at this price is the best product available. In addition Sages full line of products allows you to step up to a higher end program(if the need ever arises) with the same look and feel as Peachtree so if your company grows bigger the learning curve in the long run could be less. This version, as it is, does most things programs costing thousands of dollars more will do. It is definately easiest for those that know accounting. For example, someone mentioned the cost of the Payroll service and how much it is but you can do ALL your payroll for free using the user-maintained tables and tax rates. I find it simple and incredibly functionable and do payroll for free. However, Quickbooks is easier for a novice, I have clients that use quickbooks and even though Peachtree is a better product I would not even mentioning switching because it would be more headache than it's worth. Also, Peachtree is not as forgiving with errors, which is a good thing to me. I will say clents with Quickbooks generally have a complete mess in there file as quickbooks makes it very easy to just do watever you want and I'm amazed what I find in there sometimes. You basically have 2 options in this price range, 1) get Peachtree and take the time to learn it. or 2) If you want an easy out of the box solution just get Quickbooks as it will do what most people want it to do with less learning. Where Peachtree slacks(and makes a 5 start program 4 stars) is customer service is pay after 30 days and the fervor to copy-protect can sometimes make installation a hassle, especially on a network. Also, 2007 is only semi-compatible with Vista and requires a special download though the 2008 version out in June 07 is "Works with Vista" compatible or so they say. Peachtree is powerful, likely more powerful and harder to learn out of the box than a sole proprietorship would need. If you are a business big enough to have an accountant or bookkeeper on staff Peachtree would likely be something to strongly consider. I personally think it's a great product.
