Therefore, I’d like to explore the differences between these programs not compare them to other nonprofit accounting options. (The Nonprofit desktop version has a few minor tweaks, including some specific reports and the ability to change customers' names to Donors or Members, but is still a business product.) Both QuickBooks Online and the desktop version require extra steps to track grants, funds, and programs, but they are popular with the not-for-profit world because they are low-cost and relatively intuitive.
QuickBooks® Online or desktop? How are you to know which version would work best for your small nonprofit or church's specific needs?īoth QuickBooks Online and the desktop versions (Pro, Premier, and Nonprofit) are geared towards businesses, not nonprofits.
