Someone might say that I have a big crystal ball and can look into it and see the future. They might be right. A few months back I started randomly selecting Apps from the Intuit App Center and featuring those Apps in our 'First Look' series. As it turns out, many of those same Apps have ended up being in the 10 Finalists list for Intuit's Small Business App Showdown which will compete on stage at QuickBooks Connect on November 15, 2017.
Developers from the U.S., Canada, Ireland and New Zealand have all been competing in this contest that evaluates apps on the quality of their integration, level of innovation, market impact, number of connections, review results and community votes. As part of the competition they actively sought reviews and votes from users to bolster their results.
So here are the 10 finalists. The Name links below will take you to the Apps webpage on the Intuit App Center website. For those Apps that Insightful Accountant has already written a 'First Look' article, the link to that article is included at the end of each App listed.
