    4. Accounting Software Use Peachtree users: 3.1 million customers in US and Canada - http://sage.com/ourbusiness/sageworldwide 6.2 million worldwide - http://sage.com/ourbusiness QuickBooks, about 3.5 million US and Canada The major differences between accounting software applications include the depth of processing, enhanced features and functions, and the size of the database. As the database gets larger, the depth of processing increases and more features and functions are available. As companies grow in size, their accounting software needs change. 4

    5. Is there a difference between Peachtree and QuickBooks? User interface is different Both organize data by module Reports mostly the same Difference mostly cosmetic not structural CY’s two-cents worth: decide whether you want to reinforce the accounting model, i.e. special journals/subsidiary system/general ledger accounting cycle [Peachtree] or one journal fits all [QuickBooks]. Teaching both applications gives students best workplace/résumé-ready skills. For more advanced study, include Dynamics GP. 5

    7. Accounting Today says… While Peachtree and Intuit pretty much share the retail market, they tend to have very different kinds of users. Feature-wise, QuickBooks and Peachtree Accounting are very similar in functional capability. QuickBooks and Peachtree started off targeting two different kinds of users. Peachtree, which has been available longer, was a direct double-entry accounting system, and was aimed at an accounting or bookkeeping professional who was used to making Cash Disbursement and Cash Receipts entries, as well as dealing with general journal and subsidiary journals. QuickBooks grew out of a need to supply small-business owners and sole proprietors who were trying to use Quicken to manage their business with a more powerful application more suitable for use in a business environment. Peachtree started out as a full-blown accounting system, while QuickBooks had to grow into the role. 7
