Is anyone using Enterprise Desktop on a peer-to-peer network? Do you have any problems with multi-user connectivity?
We upgraded from QP Pro 2019 several months ago but continue to have multi-user issues from time to time. We think we figured out the problem, in that we have not been installing the QB updates in the proper order. I recently contacted our IT company to ask if they would handle the updates going forward, and I received a scathing reply which stated, among other things, that we did not configure Enterprise in the proper way because according to the IT guy, Enterprise MUST be a client/server environment and NOT on peer-to-peer network. They are recommending we purchase a server, which I believe might be overkill. On a normal workday, there are 2 users logged in at the same time, on occasion 3 users, and rarely 4 users which is the max number of users ever logged in simultaneously. Everything I see on Intuit's site does list peer-to-peer as an workable configuration. We had used prior versions of QB in a peer-to-peer set up for 20+ years and it worked fine until our company file grew too large, which is why we were told to switch to Enterprise. Thank you in advance for any input or insight you can provide.
