Friends: I've been a QuickBooks user, advocate, and evangelist for years. After the forced migration from Intuit Online Payroll (IOP) to QuickBooks Payroll Core (QBPC), I've just about lost all faith in the company.
Let me be clear: I want to stay with the company. Nobody wants to change payroll or accounting software. But I'm nearing the end of my patience. I'm curious if anyone else is having similar issues:
Am I alone? I have high standards, but this is payroll, the IRS, bank data for my company and employees, and many other regulated issues. IOP worked flawlessly for us for 10+ years. We've been migrated to a system that is costing us twice as much and literally keeping me up at night. I worry not as much about the errors (migrations always are headaches) but about the lack of systems in place to prevent and respond to them.
Is there a support team or method I'm unaware of?
This is not the impression we want you to experience upon moving to QuickBooks Online (QBO) Payroll Core, slbradio.
I appreciate the time and effort you've spent with our support agents. I'll personally share your feedback with our Customer Support Team on the unresolved payroll issues you have. We'll be able to take action on improving our customer service.
Intuit Online Payroll was retiring last May 1, 2021, that why our customers were moved to QBO Payroll Core. This is a more modern payroll plan, with more features and better ongoing development support. To learn more about this one, check out this article: Move from Intuit Online Payroll to QuickBooks Online Payroll Core. To access your Intuit Online Payroll account, we'll need to use the Admin login. If the same thing happens, please contact our Payroll Support Team to help you with this one.
On the other hand, 1099s are the tax forms you need to file with the IRS when paying contractors in cash, check, or direct deposit. Intuit has a convenient feature to help you prepare your 1099s. Just check out this article to help you process your 1099's: Create and file 1099s using Intuit Online Payroll or no payroll.
With QuickBooks Online Payroll Core, we'll take care of filing and paying Federal and State taxes for you. If you haven't enrolled in e-file and pay services, you'll see the reminders on your To-Do List. You can see it through the Workers > Overview page or the Dashboard page. If you want to file and pay the taxes on your own, do not complete the automated taxes and form filing setup. You can use this for reference: Tax feature updates with QuickBooks Online Payroll Core.
For the unresolved cases, I'd suggest contacting our Payroll Support Team. I know you already called a couple of times, however, this is the best option we can have for them to further investigate what's causing the migration issues. Just provide the reference number to the support agent for them to review the case. You may send a message via chat, call us at a time convenient to you, or we’ll get in touch with you instead. To ensure we address your concern, our representatives are available from 6:00 AM to 6:00 PM on weekdays and 6:00 AM - 3:00 PM on Saturdays, PST. See our support hours and types for more details about this one. Here's how:

The Community always has your back, and I'm just a post away should you ever need anything. Just leave a comment below and I'll get back to you. Have a great day ahead.
Thank you, but your answer is largely boilerplate text you've pasted here that supports my point. You're saying all the right things, but there is no substance behind it. Please know I don't mean that personally. It simply seems to be what sadly is a new culture for QuickBooks.
As noted, I have already contacted customer support many times. You're suggesting I do the same thing. I can't keep explaining issues to your agents over and over, only to discover they don't understand the problem or, if they do, tell me they'll "let the team know". How do you plan on keeping me informed of the issue given what seems to be a one-way ticketing system?
QuickBooks can hype the "more modern" interface all it wants to, but I need a working product that adds numbers correctly displays reports properly, and creates the forms it's supposed to. It's unconscionable to convert customer data and not provide dedicated support for the blips that are bound to happen, especially when the price doubles and when you do it at year end (I begged you to do so in May, then again in July and October, but as I feared you waited until December).
Support was superb for IOP and has been for QB Desktop ond QBO. QB Payroll Core and the support behind it is a huge disappointment.
With all due respect you're attempting to placate me with generalities and boilerplate. This is not customer support, but rather volleying the problem I've explained repeatedly to agents back into my court with no solution -- or even a process to get to one.
Simply stated, you need a ticketing system if you're going to keep your customers. Moreover, to migrate customer data at the end of the calendar year and to offer no dedicated support team to address blips that undoubtedly are going to occur during data migration is unconscionable.
Finally while QuickBooks can continue to tout all of the "improved features" of its new payroll system, they are meaningless if I'm unable to create reports I can rely on and forms I'm required by law to submit as I've done without issue for 10-plus years prior to this so-called "upgrade".
Add in that you've doubled the cost, is it any wonder
I decided after last filing season not to use the 1099 IOP because trying to find the login has always been a labyrinth of scrolling around each year to find it on Intuit's site. Last year, I noticed the font printed on the 1099NEC from Intuit was so small I was worried the post office couldn't read it. So I changed vendors. I'll be up late for a few nights keying in all my client info to another online 1099 service. I like the new service I'm using. It's straightforward, the site is easy to navigate, and your forms are kept for 3 years. Unlike Intuit, where you only had access until April.
