If you put Intuit Releases QuickBooks 2024 in your search engine, you'll get a variety of articles, several written by the same (unnamed) person for different posts or blogs.
The stories claim everything from "It's already been released," to "Sept. 6" and "Sept. 20." I even saw one story that said, "Desktop was being phased out in May 2024."
The reality is that only the leaders at Intuit know exactly when QuickBooks Desktop 2024 will actually be released.
Despite the tremendous earnings news for Intuit's Q4 and year-end just released, there is always something to be said for users signing up for the newest product just after Intuit's new fiscal year starts. This is especially true if those users have been on a non-subscription version and they are now ready for the newest version.
Everyone looks forward to the annual release of Desktop. I am no exception because it is one of the few times each year any more I can pretty much say what I think to the people I respect most, my readers, about a subject near and dear to my heart... QuickBooks Desktop.
So, I took a look back in time and guessed a few weeks ago. Then, I put my chips on the table, spun the roulette wheel and bet that QuickBooks Desktop 2024 will be released to ProAdvisors and accountants on or before the Insightful Accountant scheduled "QB Talks" on Wednesday, Sept. 20, 2023 at 2 p.m. (EST).
At "QB Talks," I will be hosting a "First Look at QuickBooks Desktop 2024 and QuickBooks Enterprise v24." (REGISTER HERE)
You can read internet stories that try to feed you bologna about QBD24, how it does this, and that and the other. Most of those stories sound like the author rehashed the Desktop 2023 "Discovery Hub."
Of course, with the price of beef, chicken and pork so high, maybe bologna is all any of us poor ProAdvisors can afford.
Regardless, if these writers knew anything and were telling you the real specifics right now, they would likely be violating a press embargo or non-disclosure agreement.
On the other hand, even though I have been working diligently on Desktop 2024 stories for months, "I will not speak a word" about what I know until the embargo lifts.
Once it does, I plan on telling you what I know about the new features and enhancements, along with my personal experiences with the 2024 products.
But I don't intend to stop there.
Because of the ever increasing emphasis on migrating between the Desktop and Online, I'm going to discuss the virtues and shortcomings of QuickBooks Desktop Plus (versions), QuickBooks Online, QuickBooks Enterprise and QuickBooks Online Advanced.
By the end of the hour, you should have some idea as to whether you want to upgrade to Desktop 2024 or switch to an Online version.
If Intuit lifts the 2024 QuickBooks Products embargo before Oct. 20, Insightful Accountant will publish specifics about what details will be included"QB Talks," as well as our 2024 QuickBooks Desktop Products synopsis.
So, "I'm all in," and, "I call ya." Time for you to put your chips on the table, and let's finish this game together.
That means you need to register to join me Sept. 20, 2023, 2 p.m. (EST) for "QB Talks" when I will show my hand concerning QuickBooks Desktop 2024.
