Hi paulerickson107,
Third party apps are a great way to customize your QuickBooks experience and add new ways to do things. I can help go over this with you.
As Third party apps are developed for use by companies outside of QuickBooks they aren't something we have any recommendations on. You can look at our third party apps page and go over other customers reviews to find one that is best for you. If you're using QuickBooks Online you can access this by clicking the Apps button on the left hand side to bring it up.
Once you have picked out the one you want you can follow these steps on how to add it to your program.
Have a great day!
