Conclusion:

QuickBooks Desktop Pro Plus version is the Desktop Pro software that you pay for annually and includes ongoing upgrades, daily backups, and 24/7 customer support. Unlike the Desktop versions, there are unlimited upgrades as the new versions of QuickBooks Desktop are released. However, because you pay a recurring fee for this version, once you stop paying for the software you are no longer able to access your books.

New QuickBooks Features: QuickBooks Desktop software now lets you see invoices, billing dates, and other scheduled tasks in an integrated calendar view. They have also added the Document Center which will let you scan and attach receipts, estimates, and other documents to invoices and customer files. Another addition is the Lead Center that allows you to manage valuable business leads and, once they become a customer, transfer them easily into the Customer Center with a single click. Also with this new release, all Desktop software comes with Industry-specific report templates created by other QuickBooks users that you can populate with your own financial data in one click of the mouse. Keeping your exported reports in Excel up-to-date has been made easier as well. By connecting these files with your QuickBooks software, all you have to do is refresh the Excel file and your reports are automatically updated every time you need it. A few more additions to the QuickBooks software are covered in our detailed review.
