I own/manage 4 rental homes, do I need to upgrade from 2013 Descktop Pro?

Dholliy · ‎February 09, 2019

While starting the new year I decided to clean-up and set-up new companies (two LLC’s).

Wondering if there is a “need” to upgrade software? 2013 is working for me but I don’t know what I missing.

I’m running Windows 10.

Thanks, apreciate any knowledge that will help me decide.

If you are win10

yes upgrade as soon as you can, 2013 is not supported for use on win10 at all and one of these days it will not open at all, no warning. Frankly I am surprised it still works on win10

Intuit requires that you upgrade every 3 years if you use any intuit services. banking downloads etc

If you do not, theoretically you can run that year version as long as the operation system does not change, but I would recommend you buy a new pro version at least every 5 years, I mean that works out to 40 a year with pro around 200

Thanks for being an avid user of our product, Dholliy.

Regarding your concern, QuickBooks 2013 is no longer a supported version. Only the higher versions can function seamlessly in Windows 10.

You may want to upgrade to the latest version already. You can always visit our website to choose the QuickBooks that suits your business' needs: https://quickbooks.intuit.com/desktop/pro/.

You can always post in the Community if you have other concerns.

Thanks, I’m going to new Desktop Pro prior to starting the new year. My Desktop 2030 worked fine on Windows 10 for 2019 & 2020 but agree, it’s time;-)
