What are they hosting? Backups of the desktop version of Quickbooks?
- pavanagrawal123 7y agoAFAIK, there are legacy versions of a "networked" quickbooks that can be hosted by third parties. Not really sure though. Some are doing app streaming of desktop quickbooks
- npo9 7y agoI wouldn’t call the networked versions of quickbooks legacy. (Quickbooks Desktop and it’s ancillary products) That’s like saying Excel is legacy because Office 365 will let you edit spreadsheets in the cloud. Sometimes local operations are just better, or cloud versions don’t fully match features.
- pavanagrawal123 7y agoYep a more appropriate term would be "older".
- wrycoder 7y agoI think these are multi-user versions of QB Desktop, normally restricted to a LAN, that are being hosted to allow access from the internet. The hosting entity also provides backup.
- kryogen1c 7y agoUneducated guess: they host an RDS farm and give people RDCs\remoteApps to log on and use their local QB installs
