Our company was using an older version of QB for a while and I finally upgraded to the current version last April. What a freaking mistake. This is when i found this thread. The only way I can edit user accounts as an Admin is to disconnect the network card. Otherwise there's no way to get past the online account message.
We're a multi-company organization and other corporates here are using Microsoft Business Central for accounting, so we decided to switch and pull the plug on QuickBooks. (I'm not a big fan of MS either, but enough is enough). We're in the final stages of cutover, and when my annual renewal for QB comes up, it will be going into the recycle bin.
I wish everyone had the option to dump QB as I have. Shame on you Intuit for treating your loyal customers like this. I'm sure losing one small company won't hurt you, but maybe this is the start of something.
