What apps are you recommending to your clients?

Five new QuickBooks Online app developers have joined the Intuit Developer Growth Program, making up our new spring cohort. These include:

1. Bookkeep Accounting Automation
2. Capsule CRM
3. Knowify–Construction Project Automation
4. LifeFlow–Advanced Reporting & Consolidation of Google Sheets
5. NiceJob

The spring cohort is participating in the program for the next five months; each developer will work closely with the Intuit developer group to identify and test growth opportunities. During that time, the cohort will have access to an exclusive network of accountants, UX experts, solution architects, and go-to-market managers, as well as the opportunity to gain increased visibility within our QuickBooks and developer communities.

The Developer Growth Program is designed to help app developers succeed with more than 5.9 million small businesses around the world that run on the QuickBooks Online platform. The spring cohort is similar to the cohort in fall 2023 that also featured five apps. Our objectives for the program include helping developers maximize their marketing impact, connect with more customers, and increase their app revenue. As always, accountants can look to the QuickBooks App Store for all apps that complement QuickBooks Online.
