Many businesses are needing to access QuickBooks in the Cloud. Some choose to convert to QuickBooks Online, which is a great choice for many companies. However, if you use QuickBooks Enterprise and have advanced inventory needs, QuickBooks Online might not be the best option. Here’s the good news: you can use QuickBooks Enterprise in the Cloud! There are companies that specialize in hosting QuickBooks Enterprise in the cloud. So what does that mean? You can log in to your QuickBooks file from any location that has internet access. Work from the office, home, on vacation, or anywhere, really. I work with many clients who have Enterprise hosting. The file works just as fast hosted as it would on your server. The host will back up your files. Some companies are even moving everything to the cloud and not using a traditional server at all!

Get Remote Access for QuickBooks Enterprise by having it hosted in the Cloud

If you currently have your QuickBooks file on an office server, you have two choices:

Have your desktop file hosted in the cloud
Switch to QuickBooks Online

Both of these options offer great solutions. The best choice may depend on your circumstances.

Hosting QuickBooks Desktop in the Cloud

You can make a backup of your QuickBooks Desktop file and transfer the copy to a host.

This “hosting” company allows you to access the file anytime using the internet. All the data is easily transferred; no “conversion” is needed. It is simply moving the file from one server to another.

The program and data will look the same on your desktop. There is no learning curve because you are still using the same software. There is, however, a learning curve if you transfer to the Online Edition.

When hosting remotely, there is no learning curve because you are still using the same software. There is, however, a learning curve if you transfer to the Online Edition.
