If considering mult-user, you may want to consider something else.

QuickBooks 2007 performs badly in a multi-user environment. Especially with a Linux server. It takes 3-4 minutes to initially open. It takes about a minute to open each company file. The back-end design for arbitrarily choosing a workstation to be a proxy to manage open company files seems rather untested. If the elected "proxy" server is shut down, restarted, or crashes, all other user sessions are killed.
I have a hard time believing this product was tested in a multi-user environment prior to being shipped.
QuickBooks Pro 2007-Nothing quick about it!Liked previous version better! 
2007-04-04
After recently being informed by our accountant that we should upgrade to QuickBooks Pro 2007, I placed the order. What a disappointment this program has been. I can't find anything easily and to backup takes FOREVER! I make 2 backups, one onsite and one to take offsite! I could get a manicure in the time it takes to backup. It is also a space hog!! It does not overwrite previous backups so you always have to delete the previous one. Intuit really needs to work the bugs out of this program and should give a partial refund to the people who have purchased it.
Quickbooks Pro - Works well for Single user 
2007-03-17
I purchased the 3 user multi-pack specifically so we could have up to 3 users at the same time. It's supposed to work with multiple users. It doesn't work as advertised without going through a lot of work. It took me a week to get it working and 3 calls to their support. The last call got it working, but NOT in the way all of their KB articles and documentation says.
So here's the breakdown:
Pros: It works well and does the job once you get it installed. If you are a single user, you won't have the installation issues I had.
Conversion of my old data file went very well (if slow ....). I was using the 2001 version and was afraid that it wouldn't convert, but no problem (except with reports - see below).
Getting Support was no problem. It was frustrating to have to call so much, but I got through in good time and the reps were polite and I could understand them.
Cons: The installation takes a VERY VERY long time. It's slow and laborious, so plan lots of time to do this.
BIG PROBLEM: The memorized reports from my previous version DO NOT work. We have to recreate ALL of the memorized reports!
Updating takes a VERY VERY long time too.
For every installation (3 computers), I had to call them and get a registration code, even though I had a valid, legal copy with a license number AND a product number. But they still wanted me to call them and get a REGISTRATION number too! What a hassle!
I guess that's about it. I would recommend it for single users (or users who will never use it in multi-user mode), but would NOT recommend it for someone who needs to have multiple users accessing the data at the same time.
Quickbooks 2007 Pro is a piece of TRASH 
2007-03-16
Quickbooks 2007 Pro multiuser is a piece of TRASH!!! Intuit should be ASHAMED of releasing this garbage before debugging it!!
It freezes up with just about anything we try to do with online banking.
I deeply resent having to pay full price in order to beta test buggy software!!
Don't upgrade to 2007 pro if you can possibly avoid it.
Amazon should temporarily pull this product.

Excellent Product

This is the best accounting software that we have used. I am so glad that we found it. It makes our jobs super easy.
The designers of this bloatware should be SHOT 
2007-07-24
This has to be the absolute worst software I have ever seen in my life.
It is so slow as to be unusable - wait 2 minutes from clicking to start the software until the first screen shows. Granted, this is not a brand new computer, but it's XP-Pro that does a reasonable job on any other software. Even with brand new FAST computers this software is slow and kludgy.
The way multiuser is implemented is unreliable and unintuitive.
Being the one to support the computers at company who decided to upgrade to this version, I wish I could find the idiots who designed this and make sure they never write any software for anyone ever again.
Great quality - great product

I'm a long-time user of Quickbooks and am very happy with the quality of this version (QB Pro 2007) and think the 3-user price very reasonable compared with other providers. Recommend!!!
Still corrupts databases and multiuser is unreliable! 
2007-06-04
The biggest problem I had with QB 2005 and 2006 was my database going corrupt after download Intuit updates. I have been an IT consultant for years. I know all the tricks to preventing such problems. Nothing could stop it. It was luck of the draw and it still is with version 2007. UNBELIEVABLE!! This problem has been ongoing for over 3 years or so. I cannot tell you how many of my clients went corrupt and switched to Microsoft Accounting or Peachtree out of frustration and lack of solid customer service.
My biggest grievances with Intuit are 4 fold.
1 - Version 2006 does not work with Vista and Intuit has no plans to patch it to make it work. They are forcing you to upgrade. Peachtree made a patch for their customers.
2 - The price of 2007 has gone up but the quality is still lacking in many areas. Microsoft Accounting is around $150 per user for a single license.
3 - Intuit does not offer an UPGRADE price discount for people that have the 2006 version, and maybe got rid of some older computers and bought new computers running Vista. They have to pay FULL PRICE for something they just recently bought all over again!
4 - Intuit used to offer a 5 Multiuser pack for about $400-500. Now they only offer a 3 user pack for around $500! What a screw job. They are purposely cashing in on the Vista release and taking the small business man for a ride and laughing all the way to the bank.
I am now boycotting Intuit. I have stopped over 250 licenses from being purchased by many of my clients and switched them to Peachtree Pro.
Peachtree offers an upgrade price. Peachtree Pro 2007 works with Vista. Originally it did not but Peachtree made a patch!!! Now that is customer service!! Peachtree Pro 2007 is also available in a 5 user pack for about $500 on many discount websites.
So take a hike Intuit. You purposely screwed valuable customers and hard working small business people! I hope you are happy!
Glad I replaced Peachtree with Quickbooks

Good small business accounting package overall. Much more user friendly than Peachtree. Memorized transactions work OK but could use additional improvement in better automating repeat monthly billing. Quickbooks would also benefit from some of Quicken's automatic on-line bank account synchronization features and would like to have the "undo" feature provided in Quicken.
