Good point. From: Af [mailto:af-boun...@afmug.com] On Behalf Of Travis Johnson Sent: Tuesday, November 1, 2016 1:55 PM To: af@afmug.com Subject: Re: [AFMUG] OT : Small computer to run QB enterprise with RDP
It's actually very affordable, if you only have a single QB company. You have to pay the same price for each company... so if you have more than one or two companies, it's MUCH cheaper to run your own version on a dedicated server. I'd love to move everything to their cloud service... but I have over 10 companies that use QB... $30/month x 10 = TOO EXPENSIVE.

I'm happy with it because I don't have to deal with supporting it anymore lol. -Sean On Tuesday, November 1, 2016, Chuck McCown <ch...@wbmfg.com<javascript:_e(%7B%7D,'cvml','ch...@wbmfg.com');>> wrote: I presume you mean you moved QB to the Intuit cloud. How much does that cost? They take care of backups etc I would assume? How difficult was it to make the transition? I presume your accountant can get right in without having to create and transfer accountant copies of the DB?

I really don't want to get Windows server 2012 and try to figure out the while terminal services thing with licensing. I was thinking it might just be easier since I only need one or two people to remote in just to get some headless PC's and sit them in a corner somewhere. Probably a bad idea but any thoughts? The specs from QB are: * Windows Vista SP2, 7 SP1, 8.1 Update 1, or Windows 10(32-bit & 64-bit) * Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1, 2012 R2 * 2.4 GHz processor * 4 GB of RAM * 2.5 GB disk space recommended * 1024x768 or higher screen resolution, extended monitor is supported * 4x DVD-ROM drive
