    Additional DetailsPricing is always consumption-based with no five-year lock-ins or termination penalties. The Acumatica ERP pricing structure allows adding casual users, suppliers, and customers without paying for additional licenses. The cost is based on the features and resources utilized, not on the number of users who access the system. An Acumatica partner works with users to understand specific requirements, determine the proper resources and modules for the company, and presents a price for the license.—

    Chose Acumatica
    Acumatica far exceeds Quickbooks. We only have about 5 users in QB and they had to export and or manually update other systems for our project teams to be able to see the health of their jobs.

    Chose Acumatica
    It beats it hands down if for nothing else but the cloud sass implantation.
