Are there other accounting programs that will import and use quick books files (such as list of contacts, vendors, clients, invoices & estimates)?
Or just read Qucikbook's DB File ".Qbb'?
I am looking down grade as I only use the very basic features on QBs program and trying to find a cost-effective solution.
Thank You JimBo
Are you using QB Desktop Enterprise? You can still buy the one time license for QB Desktop 2021 Pro/Premier.
Hi there, @ProfJimBo.
Thanks for sharing your concern with us.
I can see that you're looking for alternative accounting software that could help you manage your business. We can't recommend any accounting software other than QuickBooks to help complete your task.
However, you can look for a third-party app in our Apps Center that can move your data from QuickBooks Desktop.
Simply search for the app on this webpage: https://desktop.apps.com/home.
I'm also including our QBDT Help articles for related references in managing your accounts and transactions.
Let me know how else I can help you with QuickBooks by adding a comment below. I'm more than happy to lend a helping hand. Keep safe!
I am using Desktop Quick-Books 2014 Premere, Accounting Edition
Is the version you are speaking of QB Desktop 2021 Pro/Premier.one time license good for more than a year and if so, what is the cost?
Which 3rd party program would you recommend?
I'm here to add some details about utilizing the QuickBooks list, ProfJimBo.
We're unable to recommend any third-party application that you can use. You'll want to go to Intuit Marketplace and search for the app that can cater to your business needs. Then, check out the customer's review to make sure that it's the right one for you.
In connection to this, QuickBooks Desktop used to offer a one-time purchase license option. The license included customer support for three years, but you can continue to use the software after that. For now, you have to buy a yearly subscription to use QuickBooks Desktop since there is longer license pricing. Please check this article for more information: QuickBooks Desktop Service Discontinuation Policy and Upgrade Information.
Feel free to let me know if you have any concerns about QuickBooks. I'll always be right here to help.

A one time license = you can use it for good. The same with your QBD 2014. They will support QB Desktop 2021 until May 2024. If you prefer to use 2022 version, you can buy the one time license for QB Desktop 2022 Accountant edition

You can explore an exporter tool

If you need to migrate data to a cloud based accounting app, you can buy a 3rd party conversion service.
