I understand how managing multiple companies in a single desktop account can make transitioning to a cloud-based solution feel challenging, nm39.
While QuickBooks Online (QBO) is a cloud-based alternative, it does not natively support managing multiple companies under one subscription. Each company would require its own QBO subscription. However, there is a possible cloud option that supports multi-company setups. QuickBooks Desktop Hosting.
You can transition your existing QuickBooks Desktop Enterprise software to a cloud-hosting provider. This allows you to maintain your current multi-company structure while enabling employees to work part-time from home remotely. A hosting provider runs your QuickBooks Desktop on a secure cloud server, allowing remote access without migrating to QBO or needing separate subscriptions.
