    I'm looking now at quickbooks. Anybody use this? No one post with fake reviews trying to sell something. I'm looking for legit advice. I'm looking for something for me, a one truck owner. I have been working with fogline software but idk if I'm liking it for my needs.
    I am looking for something that syncs with my bank and credit cards and I can set up recurring deductions.
    Anyone use quickbooks basic?
    Something that's good for mileage tracking as well?
    Thx in advance!

    Can’t give you any advise. But I do have a question for you. I’m looking at Foglines. What is it that you don’t like about it? It seemed all inclusive, and compatible with QuickBooks

    With fogline I dont know If I can sync it with my credit or bank. Also the fuel, you have to know your gallons pumped I believe or it wont update. I need to catch up for this year and I didn't see any recurring deduction or revenue feature that would help me so not having to tediously keep reading my expenses.

    I did look at rigbooks. I also talked to the founder. I just the price jojo. 228 a year. Fogline is now 79.95 a onetime.
    I was trying rigbooks. I was punching it in away, bam bam, recurring bam, monthly, weekly bam, then freakin got a little mixed up and I need to start over. In not trying to sound like a sob story but I need to get this organized
     
    JonJon78 Thanks this.
