Get 50% OFF QuickBooks for 3 months*
Buy nowHello, I am new to QB online as I've always used the desktop version and it seems like QB is trying to push everyone online. I am trying out the essentials at $99/month ($1,200/yr) right now. Am I correct that even paying this amount that QB online does not have the ability to import checks from excel and or backup and restore our file? (Either thru corruption or mistakenly imports 500 invoices into wrong acct etc I need a way to protect my data.). In the desktop version, I could just find my backup from the prior day and restore and start again from there. Using chat they said both of these features are only reserved for the Advanced plan which costs $2,800 per year!! Are they correct that QB has taken away very simple basic features in the online version?

The features you mentioned, such as importing checks and backing up or restoring files, are only available in QuickBooks Advanced. Since these functionalities are essential to your business operations, you'll want to consider upgrading to the Advanced version to access these features and streamline your financial management.
