Enough is enough, seriously.  How do I DISABLE this new intuit.com login requirement on my admin account?  So you are going to deny access to my data if I don't jump through your hoop?  What about if I choose to only allow my PC on the internet for payroll updates?   

 

REMOVE THIS FEATURE NOW....  I do not want to create a login for EVERY QB file, besides being a breach of confidentiality it is blatant anti-trust violations.  It's not the little office hackers are after anyway, its the gold mine of data in clueless corporate giants such as Intuit that are the target.

 

SO, HOW DO I DISABLE THIS and release my company files held hostage??

    I never thought I would say this but there needs to be a class action suit against Quickbooks for holding our data ransom.

      I have use Quickbooks since 2011 and on my current company, we decided to move to another accounting software once this fiscal year ended and I will actively advise my colleagues to not use Quickbooks or at least update to the latest Quickbooks software that introduce forced Intuit login.

       

      The problem here is mandatory online logins means Intuit will have OUR company sensitive information and force our consent so that we'll be able to access our company data, which is not only breaching customer privacy, but also add unnecessary risk of remote security breach and also inconvenient as hell when internet is not available.

       

      It's only a matter of time until centralized data breach on Intuit happens and the customer service will not be able to respond in unison saying "This is not the impression that we want you to experience with out program" with shlt eating grin on their face to us customer.

        All you have to do to bypass the intuit login is type any character in the box, click ok, then x out of the next window. You people are nuts. Please buy a different product and move on with your angry lives.

        Oh the Intuit cultist is back white knighting for his team. If you don't like this thread, I suggest you stop posting. If you are happy, move on Dave. Get a life and let us resolve this with Intuit. You are the sad one.

          This is the type of "features" that cause people to leave Intuit all together.

          It has no value for the consumer whatsoever.

            I TOTALLY agree!  This requirement is so very invasive.  Intuit has turned a wonderful, easy to use accounting software cumbersome.  Combine this obnoxious mandatory intuit account sign on with an annual subscription requirement for forced on us newer versions and you now have total garbage where something good used to be.

              They are trying to force us desktop version users into a subscription. That sucks!

              Some of us like all our stuff local not on the cloud.

              QB has just lost my business. This move by QB is ill-informed.

                We have terminated an employee, but apparently their relationship with Inuit, which was initiated via our company and our software, will remain with Intuit. This is appalling.  I honestly don't know who this company thinks they are.  If they didn't have something to gain, this feature would be optional.  The fact that it is required means there's something in it for them.

                 

                We are a contractor meeting soon with Deltek + ComputerEase for our future needs.  I've heard good things about them.  I hope it works out.  I'm okay with online access and logins when it's MY choice.  I'm not okay with a desktop edition of software that REQUIRES this.

                  I was finally able to remove two users who should not have had access to our desktop version but were in our old system that had zero internet connectivity to Intuit!
                  I have hated that since starting to use the new Desktop software.
                  In the application you can go to "Company" then "set up Users and Passwords" then "user management"

                  You need to login as admin but there you can finally remove people!
                  They may still have intuit accounts but should not have access to your data...

                    Customer protection?  That's very sweet.  Thank you Intuit for your nurturing and protection.  However, the stated motives are, at best, deceitful.  Want to know what Intuit is doing with your data?  Look here:  https://www.businessinsider.com/what-intuit-knows-about-you-2019-5.  Headline:  "Intuit . . .  Knows as much about you as your Bank does -- if not More"
