From Flour to the Cloud: How I Let Go of QuickBooks Desktop (Thanks to ESEI)

I’ll be honest—when I first heard QuickBooks was ending the desktop version, I panicked a little. I’m a baker. I track ingredients, not data. That little icon on my computer? It felt like an old friend. Reliable. Comfortable.

So when Intuit said it was time to move to the cloud, I hesitated. A lot.

That’s when I called ESEI.

They walked me through the change, step by step. They didn’t throw tech jargon at me. They listened. They looked at how I used QuickBooks, helped me figure out the best plan in the cloud, and made sure all my numbers came with me—clean, safe, and organized.

Now? I can check my sales from the bakery, from home, even from my phone while dropping off pan dulce. My accountant can jump in and help without needing me to send a thing.

At first, I thought I was losing something. But with ESEI’s help, I gained way more:

  • Real-time updates
  • Remote access
  • Better security
  • Peace of mind

So if you’re like me—reluctant to change—just know this: the cloud isn’t as scary as it sounds. Especially when you’ve got the right people helping you rise.

Gracias, ESEI.
