QuickBooks 2018 Discontinued – Don’t Panic! Here’s What to Do

QuickBooks Desktop versions come with three-year software support from Intuit that entitles its users to live technical assistance, security patches, software updates, and many other benefits. Every year at the end of May, Intuit implements a service discontinuation policy that translates to the expiration of a QuickBooks product version. With the launch of QuickBooks Desktop 2021, the sun seems real low for QuickBooks Desktop 2018, which will be set officially on May 31, 2021. It means that the plug of entitlements that the QB Desktop 2018 users have got until now will be pulled back by Intuit, and they will be asked to upgrade their QuickBooks versions. So the million-dollar question needs to be raised- “Do you really have to upgrade?” or “Even after the QuickBooks 2018 discontinued, can you still use it?”. In the blog below, we will answer general questions that the readers must have about software discontinuation.
