@tnbarrelchamp 

How much did you pay last time?

When did you sign up for your account? 3 months ago?

We were paying $100 a month and I just got a notice that our rate is going to $158.06 without any notie.  What is up with that?

Will they give us a new software option to switch to? I am sorry but your price increase are just insane. My payroll went from 650 to 850 for my subscription ( and that does not even include the base program which is another 400 to 500.00.

How many employee do you have to manage?

25 or less

QB Desktop Pro Plus for single user + 20-25 employees?

You should consider switching to QB Desktop Enterprise Gold for single user. Purchase the license through selected partners to get a perpetual discount for renewals.

Another option, use a QB Desktop with non-subscription license and a 3rd party payroll app. You will migrate payroll data as Journal Entry to QB Desktop.
