Premium QB Talks headlines Not Feature Future Forward 2024

Will there be a 2025 QuickBooks Desktop version?

What' happening to existing Desktop subscriptions after September 30, 2024?

Are there viable replacements for QBDT-Pro, QBDT-Premier, or QB-Enterprise?

For September, QB Talks is being held as part of Insightful Accountant's Future Forward Event, Murph will discuss how Intuit's recent financial statements 'Forward Looking' advice for shareholders impacts the future of Desktop based on the fact that "The company expects desktop ecosystem revenue to decline approximately 20 percent in the first quarter of fiscal 2025...”.

Is the statement that, “The first quarter desktop growth outlook reflects changes the company made to its QuickBooks desktop offerings in early fiscal 2024 to complete the transition to a recurring subscription model, including more frequent product updates...” predictive of the demise of Desktop?

And what's to become of Desktop in light of the forward looking statement, “The company expects these changes to lower revenue in the first quarter of fiscal 2025 by approximately $160 million”?

If you want Murph's interpretation of what all this means for the Future of QuickBooks Desktop you need to join him on September 24, 2024, at 2:00 PM Eastern (1:00 PM Central) time for QB Talks.
