Jan 30, 2020 | Episodes, Featured App

Creating a backup of your QuickBooks Online file is as important as making a QuickBooks Desktop backup. The only difference is we must utilize an app to help us. 

There are several solutions listed on Apps.com for backing up your QBO data. A significant recent change is ChronoBooks is discontinuing its service to QuickBooks Online users, unless they subscribe to the QBO Advanced subscription! This is BIG news and very concerning to the many accountants and businesses who regularly back up their data. With so many of us losing an integral part of our technology stack, what can we do?
