Frequently asked questions

Is Tormano's QuickBooks integration as deep as Method's?

Both platforms ship real-time, two-way QuickBooks integration, including Desktop.

Does Method have a nonprofit product?

Can I switch from Method without losing QuickBooks history?

Your QuickBooks history comes with you the moment you connect, because it lives in QuickBooks rather than in Method. Tormano re-syncs it on the first connection, and contacts, notes and other customer records leave Method as a CSV file you import.

Which should a QuickBooks-heavy team choose?

Both sync with QuickBooks, so the choice is what surrounds the sync. Tormano includes the AI suite, revenue recognition through to collections and a dedicated nonprofit product. Method offers deep sync with drag-and-drop screen customization, which suits teams that want to shape their own screens.
