Intuit has abandoned the little guy.  I have 3 small individual company files in QuickBooks 2021 Desktop Pro.  In 2021 a 3-year package was purchased for $400.  No need for extensions like payroll, inventory, etc.  Now they want $650 subscription per year!  That’s a 388% percent price increase! 

The online version, for the Simple Start level, for 3 company files is $360 times 3 or $1080 per year which works out to a 700% price increase!  What  a bunch of crooks.
