A popular accounting software package designed for small and medium-sized businesses to manage finances and bookkeeping.
Compound of 'quick' (Old English 'cwicu' meaning 'alive, fast') and 'books' (referring to account ledgers). Created as a brand name emphasizing fast, efficient bookkeeping.
QuickBooks revolutionized small business accounting by making bookkeeping accessible to non-accountants. The name perfectly captures the software's promise: turning the traditionally slow, complex world of accounting into something quick and manageable.
