I too have been a long time user of Quickbooks. It has been great until about the last 4 or so years. I used to be able to buy the software and use it for 3 years. Now my expense has more than tripled from 2021. I too am wanting to change, but am unable as my accountant wants to use Quickbooks.

Quickbooks should be investigated for antitrust law violations. They buy out all of their competitors, so there aren't many other options out there. Maybe that would get their attention.
