Accounting computer programs come in all shapes and sizes. Peachtree retains the strengths of other programs while storing an impressive assortment of inventory features and reporting. This program is both well known and full of reliable characteristics, but it also has its share of cons that need to be taken into consideration–including cost, important missing features and user compatibility. On the downside, retail and service businesses are nowhere near quite as pampered.

Its major weakness is in reporting, where its choice of filters and options leave much to be desired. Writer Bio
