Well I'm actually Canadian, but the software in question likely has appropriate versions.

I have a small business and have been using "Quickbooks" from Intuit since 2001. Using it on a regular basis and being somewhat happy with it, after the initial battle to get my accounts set up just right.

For reasons/excuses that I can understand but are exaggerated (support issues,etc), I have been informed by the folks at Quickbooks that my copy of 2001 is no longer valid. I will be unable to register it, which is required to access all my records and reports and to export to Quicktax.

Now then, although I like the product, I was given no warning that this would happen, that suddenly my software will no longer work. I'm not a big business or anything like that and accounting costs are a signigicant consideration. Intuit has pissed me off with thier tactics- I pretty much need to upgrade to thier newest version or I will loose a large amount of work and records.

So is there a better program out there? Any recommendations?
