What Happened To Intuit QuickBooks’ Definition Of Natively Installed?

On September 15, 2015, I posted “QuickBooks 2016 System Requirements” noting the importance of paying particular attention to “natively installed” and Microsoft Office 365 web version issues. I also noted the definition of “natively installed” appears to be conspicuously missing from Intuit support’s website.

Fortunately, I saved the image of the page you see below. I would really like to know what happened to Intuit QuickBooks’ definition of “Natively Installed” software? But more importantly, I would like to know if Intuit supports QuickBooks in a virtual environment? It makes a big difference to those of us that build and support QuickBooks servers.

UPDATE 10/31/2015: The statement “Note: Natively installed means it was installed on a particular system or environment that it was designed for. This also means that it doesn’t need to run in a virtual environment or emulation software.” now resides on the “System requirements for QuickBooks” page. Intuit’s intention remains the same without the detailed explanation and one less click. Fortunately, Intuit no longer states “QuickBooks is not supported in a virtual environment.”

Native Installed.

Natively Installed QuickBooks Support

Small businesses need their mission critical software to be supported by the vendor they purchase it from.

Host Your Own Multi-Location Multi-User QuickBooks solution

Small business depend upon and require reliable Internet access speeds that consistently rate within the current standard broadband range.

According to the FCC, in 2015, 83 percent of all Americans (260+ million people) have access to the current standard for broadband Internet service; 25 megabits per second (Mbps) for downloads and 3 Mbps for uploads. If you have or can get that level of service, it will move data quickly enough to host your own multi-location multi-user QuickBooks solution for five users or less.

High QuickBooks Hosting Recurring Costs

Small business owners do not like high monthly recurring costs from QuickBooks hosting providers.

Multi-Location Multi-User QuickBooks

Small businesses need an affordable solution to provide multi-location multi-user access to QuickBooks.

My QuickBooks server cost me $300 and runs every day. I’m compelled to share my affordable above average alternative with you at a price less than the average hosting provider’s monthly user fee.
