Questions to ask when evaluating QuickBooks
It's accounting software, not shop management.
No job tracking, no kanban, no workflow stages.
No vehicle database — customer records are billing-centric, not a wrap CRM.
Inventory (Plus and up) counts products — no vinyl roll footage or material tracking.
Intuit's AI is accounting AI — no design, mockup, or wrap-shop intelligence.
You still need 4+ other tools to run your shop.
