Frequently asked questions
Does Tormano work with QuickBooks Online and QuickBooks Desktop?
Yes. Changes in QuickBooks Online appear in Tormano within seconds, and Tormano writes back the same way. QuickBooks Desktop connects through Intuit's official connector on the schedule you set. Both connections report their sync health, so you can see the last successful sync and anything that needs your attention.
How is Tormano different from Method CRM?
Method also offers real-time, two-way QuickBooks sync, including Desktop. Tormano matches that sync depth and adds a full sales CRM, an AI suite where every action is logged and undoable, revenue intelligence from recognition to working capital, gamification, and a dedicated flat-rate nonprofit product. At the top tier the two are close on price: $99 against $97 per seat a month.
Which plan do I need for the complete QuickBooks workspace?
Every paid plan syncs both ways and covers vendors, bills, expenses, payments, journal entries, purchase orders, inventory and deposits, plus fund accounting on the nonprofit product. The analytics workspace, with subscription analytics, margin, working capital, smart collections and the multi-entity view, is on Business and Professional. ASC 606 revenue recognition is on Business.
Are there things Tormano's integration does not do?
Two. Card payments cannot be processed through QuickBooks Payments: Tormano takes payments through Stripe, and can show a QuickBooks pay link on an invoice where your company has QuickBooks Payments switched on. Payroll cannot be written back either. Intuit does not open either of those to third-party apps.
Can I import from Method, HubSpot, Salesforce, Zoho, Pipedrive, Bloomerang or DonorPerfect?
Yes for HubSpot, Salesforce, Zoho, Pipedrive, Bloomerang and DonorPerfect: each has a prebuilt template that maps its export columns. Method has no template, so export to CSV and the wizard matches common column names for you. Most imports finish in under an hour, with duplicates merged automatically.
