However, unlike QuickBooks Desktop Pro and Premium, there is no option to purchase QuickBooks Enterprise for a one-time fee. It has all the features of Premier, plus the ability to track inventory at multiple locations and using bar codes, create advanced reports, pay employees with QuickBooks Enhanced Payroll (Platinum only), track inventory with more detail and efficiency, and implement advanced pricing (Platinum and Diamond). Enterprise comes in a general business edition plus the same five industry-specific editions as QuickBooks Premier. QuickBooks Enterprise is the most powerful of all QuickBooks products, scaling up the functionality provided by Premier by allowing up to 40 users (Diamond).
For more information, you can read our expert reviews of QuickBooks Pro and QuickBooks Premier. The industry-specific editions provide both additional reporting options and workflows customized for your industry.
However, QuickBooks Premier is worth the additional price if your business deals extensively in inventory or operates in one of the five industry-specific editions of Premier. Takeaway: QuickBooks Pro is suitable for most businesses that don’t require more than three simultaneous users.
