Switch from QuickBooks

Staying on QuickBooks is costing you.

Most businesses we hear from did not leave QuickBooks because it broke. They left because they were tired of working around it. The Business Assistant™ at TheAsst.com runs your quotes, sales, inventory, purchasing, billing, time tracking and accounting in one system, so every sale, bill and hour lands in your books the moment it happens.

Sound familiar?

  • You quote in one place, track stock in another and bill from a third, and someone retypes the same job three times.
  • You find out what a job really earned after it is finished, not while you can still make adjustments.
  • Your recurring customers get invoices that somebody has to remember to create and chase every month.
  • Hours worked live on paper or in a separate app, then get retyped before anyone can be paid or billed.
  • Every new hire means another seat to pay for, even when they are logged in for only an hour a day.

Every one of those is time and money you spend on the software instead of on your business. Here is what changes when it is all one system.

What you get that you do not have today

Know your profit before you send the quote

As you build a quote, cost, profit, markup and margin update on the screen. You see what a job will really earn while you can still change the price, not after the work is done.

From quote to paid invoice, with nothing retyped

An approved quote becomes a sales order, then an invoice, then a payment. Each step carries the cost, margin and status forward, and posts to your general ledger automatically.

Real accounting, real reports

Double-entry books with accrual and cash-basis reporting, aging, cash flow forecasting and year-end close. Export any report to PDF or Excel in one click.

Inventory tracked lot by lot

Purchase orders, bills and stock tie together, and sales draw from specific lots, so you always know what you have and what it cost.

Recurring invoices that bill themselves

Set a schedule once. Invoices are created on time and charge your customer’s saved card, so you stop chasing the routine ones.

Time tracking built in

A timeclock with a kiosk for the shop floor, plus timesheet reports. No second app, and no retyping hours.

Pay for people working, not seats

Pricing is by concurrent users: only the people logged in at the same time count. Standard is $75 a month for up to 3, plus $15 for each additional one.

Control who sees what

Multi-factor sign-in and permission profiles decide who can see and do what, in every part of the system.

Real people, in the US

US-based support is included with every plan, and a guided setup walks you through the basics.

Your history comes with you

You do not start over. Our guided import brings your data across from QuickBooks: your chart of accounts, customers, vendors, items and transaction history. You review how each QuickBooks field maps into TheAsst.com before anything is loaded.

  1. Sign up. Pick a plan and create your company in minutes.
  2. Import. Upload your QuickBooks Desktop data and review the mapping.
  3. Check your numbers. Compare our reports with the ones you have now, before you commit.
  4. Go live. Invite your team and start working in one system.

Questions

Will I lose my history?

No. The import brings over your transaction history, and you check our reports against your current ones before you go live. Note: due to the nature of QuickBooks transactions, some manual adjustments could be needed.

Will my team need training?

Very little. The menus and the Add, Find and List actions are familiar, a guided setup covers the basics, and US-based support is included to get you going.

What does it cost?

Standard is $75 per month for up to 3 concurrent users, plus $15 per month for each additional one. You pay half price for your first 3 months. See pricing.

How is my access controlled?

Sign-in supports multi-factor authentication, and permission profiles control who can see and do what in each part of the system.
