5.0 out of 5 stars Great Help for New Peachtree Users, Mar 14 2005

By Arjay8 - Published on Amazon.com

Ce commentaire est de: PeachtreeFor Dummies (Paperback)

Making the jump to Peachtree from Quickbooks was difficult -- not only does Peachtree do things differently than QB but it assumes and demands more accounting acumen than QB -- and I found I needed help to get everything working for my small company. Peachtree is not the friendliest piece of software I've encountered and this book helped me "tame the beast". I would recommend it to anyone who is starting to use Peachtree or even considering Peachtree for their business.

3.0 out of 5 stars Useful, but updated edition needed, May 4 2007

By L. Crenshaw "Priacta, Inc." - Published on Amazon.com

Ce commentaire est de: PeachtreeFor Dummies (Paperback)

I bought this out of desperation--there is NOTHING ELSE OUT THERE, at least nothing worth using for learning Peachtree. AVERAGE usefulness for a help-me-I'm-dying guide.

Can be used for a read-through tutorial, but I suggest this only if you are extremely stupid and accounting-illiterate and very bad at navigating self-explanatory computer programs. I'm 17 and have only been doing this accounting thing for 6-7 months, and was totally able to skim/skip the first 3 1/2 chapters.

Don't get me wrong. I needed this book. It simply works better as an index-reference tool (although I will warn you, the setup of the book is unusual, and you will probably need to reference 2-4 different places each time you have a question).

The only thing that really bugged me was that the book is somewhat outdated and needs to be re-vamped. This book was last revised in 2004. I have Peachtree 2007 Pro. In some places, the navigation (Go Here--> Click here) was not applicable to my version of Peach and I was left on my own to find the phantasmic feature.

WOULD RECOMMEND. Although finding the exact info you need can be tricky, it's certainly faster than trying to find the answer yourself or, even worse, online.

1.0 out of 5 stars Don't even bother, Aug 16 2005

Peachtree for dummies is no better than the user's guide that comes with Peachtree. I'll give anyone my copy so they don't waste their money on it. Its basically theuser's guide, but paraphrased. It really explains absolutely nothing.
