Have control over multi-user access

QuickBooks cloud hosting comes with a great feature of multi-user access which allows you to add multiple people in the QuickBooks and they are able to work together with real time updates.

But you should be very much precise while giving access to different users and you should also restrict them to certain areas of the accounting software so that even after giving access to different users, you still will be able to keep your most important data secure.
