Boiling Frogs: Some QBO Perspective

from Unofficial QuickBooks Accountants Podcast · host Alicia Katz Pollock, MAT

Matthew "Spot" Fulton of Parkway Business Solutions rejoins Alicia after a year-long sabbatical to share something surprisingly useful: a totally fresh perspective on QBO's new interface, AI features, and bank feeds. Having missed the frustrating transition period, Spot logged back in without the emotional baggage of watching features break in real time -- and found things better than he expected. His "cold return" experience raises a bigger question about whether proximity to the chaos has skewed how accountants assess where QBO actually stands today.Sponsors:Aqqrue - http://uqb.promo/aqqrueMaxima.AI  - http://uqb.promo/maxima(00:00) - Welcome to The Unofficial QuickBooks Accountants Podcast (00:49) - Spot Returns After Sabbatical (01:44) - Top ProAdvisor Backstory (02:34) - Logging Back Into QBO (03:34) - Bookmarks and Client Navigation (05:52) - Bank Feeds Speed Wins (06:46) - Receipt Upload Improvements (08:37) - AI Statement Reconciliation (12:23) - AI Tools and Reporting (16:18) - Vendor Names and Popups (17:30) - Upsells and Intuit Ecosystem (19:57) - How Spot Relearned Fast (21:52) - Clients Frustration and Change (22:50) - Accounting Future With AI (27:37) - Intuit Accountant Suite Tweaks (28:49) - Wrap Up and Whats Next LINKSAlicia’s book on Amazon: http://royl.ws/conversion-bookPast episodes we reference:Kirsten Thulborn on subtle changes you don’t notice: www.uqb.show/139Connect with Matthewhttps://www.parkway.businesshttps://www.linkedin.com/in/parkwayincAlicia’s Upcoming Classes4/28/26: Converting from QBDT to QBO: http://royl.ws/QBDT2QBO?affiliate=53939075/12/26: QBO Ledger: http://royl.ws/ledger?affiliate=53939075/19/26: QBO Solopreneur: http://royl.ws/Solopreneur?affiliate=53939075/26/26: QBO Advanced: http://royl.ws/QBO-Advanced?affiliate=53939076/9/26: Intuit Accountant Suite: http://royl.ws/QBOA?affiliate=5393907We want to hear from you!Send your questions and comments to us at [email protected] our LinkedIn community at https://www.linkedin.com/groups/14630719/Visit our YouTube Channel at https://www.youtube.com/@UnofficialQBOPodcastSign up to Earmark to earn free CPE for listening to this podcasthttps://www.earmark.app/onboarding
