Quickbooks has an invoicing feature, so if you use Quickbooks (which I'm assuming, by your desire for an export to Quickbooks), why would you use Freshbooks? <br>That isn't an argument against Freshbooks, in fact, I vastly prefer it to QB, I'm just not following why you'd want to export to Quickbooks when you could either use QBs' invoicing OR, and this is where you confused things, you export to Outright for your books. Outright is not for expenses, it is your Quickbooks, the bookkeeping aspect anyway (and also preferable to QB); hence, tracking expenses and Freshbooks' income .<br>Freshbooks to rule Batchblue and Basecamp (managing your customers and income). Outright to rule Freshbooks and (yay!) the IRS (managing records and taxes). Nice insight and Freshbooks is brilliant but I think you mis-represented the players.
