why is QB rrunning so slow?

Hello there, clark10.
 

QuickBooks Online (QBO) is a web-based service that relies on your device’s processing power, available memory (RAM), and internet connection speed to work efficiently.
 

These are the several reasons why its performance is slow:
 

  • Your device's performance can affect how quickly QuickBooks processes tasks.
  • An unstable internet connection might be the reason QB is loading slowly.
  • Using an outdated browser could also lead to similar problems.


QBO is compatible with any supported browser that meets the system requirements. Check out this article to verify if your system meets the basic requirements, as this can help pinpoint the cause of any slow performance issues: System requirements for QuickBooks Online products.
