Downgrading from QuickBooks Enterprise to Pro is usually to save on costs.
Many small businesses are not even aware of the fact that they only need QuickBooks Enterprise if they exceed more than 14,500 products, customers, or vendors. Most company files do not exceed those limits and in such cases, QuickBooks Pro and Premier can offer the required features at a more affordable price. QuickBooks Pro comes with free tech support for the first 30 days. After 30 days, you must purchase a QuickBooks customer support plan. For
unlimited tech support, QuickBooks Pro Plus is worth the buy for $299.95 annually. QuickBooks Enterprise starts at $1,155 per year for one user license. For additional licenses, you would have to contact customer service. The QuickBooks Enterprise license comes with unlimited support available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. QuickBooks Enterprise comes with its set of troubles such as difficulty opening a QuickBooks Enterprise Solutions file using a QuickBooks NonEnterprise product, downgrading QuickBooks Enterprise to QuickBooks Pro/Premier/Accountant, restoring QuickBooks Enterprise backup to QuickBooks Pro or Premier and converting to QuickBooks Online. If you feel it’s time you need a downgrade, third party professional services such as E-Tech offers industry-standard QuickBooks data conversion from Enterprise to Premier or Pro Editions, which will convert 100% of your data with accuracy including the conversion of all data including Payroll, error fixes and converting files on the weekend for maximum flexibility to your business.
