Netbooks–Your Business Better

by Jeff Christman

NetBooks

The creator of the popular QuickBooks accounting software has launched NetBooks, a web-based solution for handling many aspects (including bookkeeping) of running a small-to-mid size business.

Much like Salesforce.com, NetBooks touts its “software as a service” business model that revolves around monthly subscription fees as opposed to licensing. Additionally, the company tackles many areas of business management that are not part of QuickBooks, such as customer relationship management, marketing, and inventory. NetBooks believes it is optimal for companies with 2 to 50 employees in an inventory-focused business.

Pricing for NetBooks starts at $200 for up to 5 users, with a $20 fee for each additional. The company appears to be taking direct aim at founder Ridgely Evers former employer (Intuit, owner of the QuickBooks franchise), not only drawing inspiration from the name, but also featuring a comparison chart of NetBooks and QuickBooks

    Hmm! This will probably catch on. (After all, we already have online banking.) My concern — how secure is it? What if my business information gets hacked into? Thanks for reporting on this new trend.
