QuickBooks Consulting FAQ:
Common Questions About Working With Peak Advisers

Peak Advisers helps small and mid-size businesses get more out of QuickBooks through expert setup, training, migration, and ongoing support. Below are answers to the most common questions we hear from business owners considering QuickBooks consulting services.

When should I hire a QuickBooks consultant?

Hire a QuickBooks consultant when your books are messy or inaccurate, you’re spending too much time on manual workarounds, you need to migrate data or upgrade versions, or you’re ready to scale with Intuit Enterprise Suite. Expert guidance saves time, reduces costly mistakes, and ensures your financial data supports growth decisions instead of creating bottlenecks.

What’s the difference between QuickBooks Online and Intuit Enterprise Suite?

QuickBooks Online works well for single-entity businesses with straightforward accounting needs. Intuit Enterprise Suite is designed for multi-entity, multi-location businesses that need consolidated reporting, advanced user permissions, and real-time visibility across subsidiaries. Peak Advisers helps you determine which platform fits your current and future needs, then handles the implementation and training.

How long does QuickBooks setup or migration take?

QuickBooks setup and migration timelines vary based on your business complexity, data volume, and specific needs. Peak Advisers provides a project timeline estimate during your free consultation after reviewing your current system, chart of accounts requirements, and implementation scope. Most projects are completed within a few weeks, with larger migrations or multi-entity setups taking longer to ensure accuracy and proper training.

What does QuickBooks consulting cost?

Peak Advisers provides transparent project quotes based on scope and our hourly consulting rate. After your free consultation, we’ll outline the work involved, estimated hours, and total project cost. This approach ensures you pay for exactly what you need—whether that’s a quick cleanup, full implementation, ongoing support, or a combination of services tailored to your business.

Do you work with businesses anywhere in the United States?

Yes. Peak Advisers works with small and mid-size businesses across the United States. All QuickBooks consulting, training, and support services are delivered virtually, so location doesn’t limit our ability to help you implement, optimize, or troubleshoot your QuickBooks environment.

Can you help us switch from QuickBooks Desktop to QuickBooks Online?

Yes. Peak Advisers specializes in QuickBooks Desktop to Online migrations. We handle needs assessment, data extraction and cleansing, chart of accounts mapping, system configuration, staff training, and post-migration support. Our goal is a seamless transition with zero downtime and accurate historical data in your new QuickBooks Online environment.

Do you offer QuickBooks training for our team?
