I'm currently using QB Premier Desktop Contractor Edition 2019. The product is no longer supported, and I would like to upgrade. It's my understanding that Contractor Desktop Edition is no longer offered, even though I've seen in a blog that it is. I've contacted QB and am not very confident in the advice that I received. Can anyone tell me if Contractor Edition is still available? And, if not, what if anything has taken its place? There are features in Contractor Edition that I need for my business. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

You can still purchase the one time license for QB Desktop 2021 US Premier (Contractor edition) or the subscription license for QB Desktop 2022 US Premier Plus (Contractor edition). Keep in mind, they have announced their plan to increase the price of the upcoming QB Desktop 2023 and the renewal price for QB Desktop 2022.

Thank you for posting here in the Community, @mray26521.

 

Let me share some insights about service discontinuation for QuickBooks Desktop.

 

If you don't use any QuickBooks Desktop 2019 add-on services, your product will continue to function normally. You won't be able to subscribe for live technical support or any of the other Intuit services that work with QuickBooks Desktop. In addition, discontinued versions will not receive security fixes or updates.

 

Upgrade to the QuickBooks Desktop version that's perfect for you if you want to stay on QuickBooks Desktop.

 

Before installing QuickBooks, you can check your license and product number by logging into the Account Management portal. Allow me to demonstrate.

 

  1. Go to camps.intuit.com and sign in with your Intuit Account info. It can differ from what you use to sign in to your company file.
  2. Select QuickBooks Desktop in the Products & Services list.
  3. Tick Details.

 

If you can't find it using the following alternatives, don't hesitate to reach our Customer Care Team. Our Live Help representatives can address confidential information we can't disclose in this public forum.

We currently have Premier Plus Contractors Edition 2024 - Will we continue to receive support and upgrades? Are there any plans to take the contractors edition to cloud-based services?

They will support QB Desktop 2024 until 2027.
