QuickBooks Online Gives You More Mobile Mojo
Keep Tabs on Your Company’s Financials via
an iPhone or BlackBerry
MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. (Business Wire EON/PRWEB ) August 25, 2008 --
Intuit Inc. (Nasdaq:INTU) today
announced both iPhone and BlackBerry integration with QuickBooks®
Online, the leading Web-based small business accounting
software.
Now the more than 130,000 small businesses that subscribe to QuickBooks
Online have even more freedom to manage their business anywhere, anytime
- with or without a computer. These early version Web-based mobile
applications are part of Intuit’s
Connected Services strategy to help entrepreneurs connect to their
data when and where they need it.
Available on IntuitLabs.com, an
early concept release site, these iPhone
and BlackBerry
applications help QuickBooks Online users get an up-to-date view of
their finances by:
-
Checking current bank and credit card balances.
-
Tracking who owes them money and who they owe.
-
Finding vendor and customer contact info with addresses via Google
Maps.
-
Running balance sheet and profit and loss reports.
“QuickBooks Online is perfect for us as there
is no ‘office,’ just
volunteer member parents working from various home or work offices,”
said Laura Olcott, treasurer for Twin Cities Co-op Preschool in Corte
Madera, Calif. “Given the virtual nature of
our interactions, iPhone support helps us be more productive. While
waiting for an appointment, I was able to check QuickBooks Online using
my iPhone to look up parents with open balances and send them an e-mail
reminder to pay their bill.”
“A growing number of small businesses are
looking to mobile technology to run their business,”
said Rick Jensen, senior vice president of Intuit’s
Small Business Division. “Our goal with these
new mobile services is to give QuickBooks Online users the edge they
need to compete and manage their busy lives by keeping tabs on their
business even when they are out of the office.”
