Hello,
We are purchasing QB-Desktop-2020-Premier (one-time payment) from a QB hosting provider (who is also a reseller), and this will be our 1st time dealing/purchasing from a reseller instead of directly from Intuit. They both offer the same price but the reseller is offering a free upgrade to QB-Desktop-2021-Premier (2021 version is expected in few weeks) as an incentive to use their hosting services (new clients only).
1. Is there any difference when buying from a reseller VS directly from Intuit? We want to ensure that we own the licenses & we are not tied/bound to the hosting provider
2. How to ensure that the free upgrade offer is legit and Intuit will honor?
There are mixed reviews on every QB hosting provider, and we want to ensure which are not taken for a ride.
Thanks.
