When Small Business Accounting and CRM Collide

With more than 4.5 million customers, Intuit’s Quickbooks is easily the top-selling small business accounting software. And when it comes to small business CRM software, Salesforce.com sets the standard. So when the two companies decided to join forces, it seemed like a match made in, well, small business heaven.

The partnership focuses on versions of Salesforce.com’s small business CRM (Contact Manager Group and Professional) that have been pre-integrated with Intuit QuickBooks and QuickBooks Online small business accounting software. Intuit will make these editions available in its App Center.
