Hi Paula

I used Quickbooks for 6 years and I switched to Sage about 18 months ago. I must say that I prefer Sage. I like the way it organises the transactions and it's very easy to use once you've had some training. Quickbooks is great if you're not very experienced with accounts. One or two hours training is all you need to get started. Huge difference in the price though.

I do agree though that you should check what your accountant uses as it will save you money in the long run if you both use the same software.
