Integrating Birdeye with QuickBooks Online
QuickBooks Online is an accounting software designed primarily for small and medium-sized businesses to help them manage multiple accounting processes. It helps businesses to manage payroll, pay bills, create invoices, manage sales, etc. QuickBooks Online can be used by businesses to manage accounts for different stakeholders including vendors and customers.
