Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I have had Quickbooks for many years and have used its enhanced payroll as well. I have been paying their annual subscription each year assuming they would give you a reasonable charge. I found out that they have raised their prices and are now at $295.00/year. However, purchasing the enhanced payroll on line results in a cost of about 147.00, or nearly 50% off their renewal. I called them and asked them to match what their retailers offer. They said they cannot price match their retailers and can only offer up to a 20% discount the subscription. So I declined my annual subscription. This QB 2012 + Enhanced payroll is an even better deal. The QB 2012 Pro is $139 on Amazon and this makes the Enhance payroll $108, or 63% off their annual subscription. I normally would give Intuit 3-4 stars for the software since it does what its supposed to, but has advertising baked into the product which is horrendously annoying. Paid products should not have advertising, or at least have the option to disable it. Intuit gets 1 star because their annual subscription is sneaky and fleeces customers who do not do their homework. This goes for me... I hav ebeen fleeced many years and just woke up to this scam. Caveat emptor. My recommendation to all buyers is to not give Intuit a real credit card number for their account so they are unable to auto-renew you. They will send you emails of a pending renewal. Purchase the renewal from Amazon for 50-63% discount and call up Inuit to reactive for another year.
