How buggy is QuickBooks Online?

Hey folks, 

 

We were QuickBooks Première users for years in my business (2002-2012).  Now that I am semi-retired and just running a small proprietorship, I signed up for QB online.  However, I constantly seem to be fighting with strange issues....including what looks like data loss and inconsistent reporting.  (eg:  My quarterly filing is due for PST and GST - the PST filing works fine, but GST only shows data for this current calendar year!!

If you were already familiar with QB Desktop, consider to keep it that way. You can still purchase the one time (outright)  license for QB Desktop 2021 Pro/Premier from several partners.
