NO Quickbooks - NO INTUIT!
First of all:
The average person has about 100 passwords so of course it makes sense that at some point you’re going to need to manage it. Whether it’s resetting your password, or other login help, QuickBooks Desktop users this article is for you!
Lets start with the very first sentence - worst grammar ever. The average person has about 100 passwords so of course it makes sense that at some point you’re going to need to manage it.
Moving on...
I think the best place to start is with an explanation of the new QuickBooks Desktop login experience. We’re now connecting your Intuit login to Desktop to give you better security and a single user ID to access all of Intuit’s products.
Let's stop here for a moment - IF that was a need then yes having an intuit account would make sense.
Think of it like the passcode to your phone, which then gives you access to all your apps and information.
I do not treat my desktop like my phone - THAT IS WHY I BOUGHT A DESKTOP VERSION!
"With One Intuit Account you have one login that gets you into all of your accounts without having to create multiple. "
STOP STOP STOP! NO NO NO!
BECAUSE - I might have MULTIPLE QB files I need to access - Like one at a location I help out at - they want me to log in and do data entry plus my own company...
I DO NOT WANT THOSE ENTITIES CO-MINGLED - EVER! SOooooo I now have to create a NEW profile for every instance of QUICKBOOKS I use? WHAT? How does that simplify or make things safere?
THIS one.... make me bang my head on the keyboard:
As you can see, there are more requirements for your login password, but that’s because that’s the first gateway to protecting your information.
OK - what about removing deceased or fired users?
HOW is it safe that INTUIT has a hold on THAT bit of MY company information and security and I cannot manage it?
