Hi sfeld,

Welcome, and thank you for expressing your sentiments on the pricing structure of QuickBooks Desktop products. I understand your concern about it and how it may not fit the needs of your business.

Know QuickBooks Desktop now on a subscription-based model with a yearly renewal. As a result, there is no longer an option for a desktop version that doesn't require yearly renewal. Additionally, QuickBooks 2022 will soon become obsolete, so I cannot recommend this for you.

We also the the QuickBooks Online modes that you can as a alternative. Please check out the list of plans and their features: https://quickbooks.intuit.com/pricing/.

If you have other concerns, please don't hesitate to go back to this thread. Take care and have a good one!
