Default QuickBooks 2005 no longer supported

I have been using quick books now for years ,, no problems , easy to use , I just went Ltd and therefore now have to pay myself as PAYE. I have been using Quick books 2005 with payroll, and now they don’t support PAYE codes on 2005 ,, have to buy 2009 ,, apart from a few page layouts I cant see any major differences, seems a good way of re selling perfectly good software, and at £700. So what happens next year if they decide to no longer support 2009 ?

We upgraded ourselves recently from 2005 to 2009, although not savvy with it myself, I'm told by those that are, that it makes our lives a lot easier.

We did the 12 month support thing, where you pay £40 or £50 a month for 12 months, get full support (which was handy during the upgrade process) and then after that, you can choose to continue support, or work as is and you have the license for no extra dosh.

Saves having to pay a lump sum up front. If I rem rightly, it also includes a free upgrade to the new version which is due out, or is out.

Hope that helps. Our man Clive knows quickbooks really well, but he's hiding on his hols at the moment.

Heres a good thread on some alternatives though:

My advice, for what it's worth... go for Sage! I have worked with many of their products, including the small business Taz software, and all have been spot on. The advice is always great and there are many sources of support too.
