QQube extracts the spaghetti code from QuickBooks, and transforms the data, using traditional data warehouse methodology, into drag and drop columns that can be used out-of-the-box with tools like Excel, PowerPivot, Power BI, Access, Crystal Reports, and Tableau.
There is no need to deal with tables, relationships, mapping documents, reverse engineering, or connection strings.
QQube includes thousands of fields, and hundreds of additional calculations to provide ease of use for the end-user, and power and flexibility for the most advanced devloper.
QQube, created in 2010, is the brain child of founder Chuck Vigeant, M.Ed. who is known as the father of Crystal Reports for QuickBooks, and widely regarded as the most knowledgeable expert on QuickBooks data extraction.
Chief Engineer and database extraction architect, is Matt Froncek, who designed the QODBC Driver included with QuickBooks Enterprise.
QQube provides a level of granular detail that empowers those who require both summary and drill down reporting, while furnishing ease of use capabilities for users who want visualization for dashboards, and tools for dynamic analysis.
QQube users fall primarily in the following categories:
As one of Intuit's largest and most successful 3rd party applications, we serve a variety of industries around the globe. Here is a list of our most prevalent industry types:
STEP 1. QQube establishes a connection to QuickBooks using the Intuit SDK and auto extracts data periodically - or upon demand - into our proprietary Sybase database. This can be one - or dozens of QuickBooks companies.
STEP 2. QQube transforms the raw spaghetti code data into usable - and recognizable - pieces. Each analytic is organized as a traditional warehouse "Star Schema", where there is one FACT table containing measures, and links to multiple DIMENSIONS e.g. accounts, items, customers, etc.
STEP 3. Open up one of our pre-built shells - and the data will refresh from the QQube database automatically. There are no connection strings or configuration needed.
QQube is capable of combining dozens of QuickBooks files, allowing you to aggregate or filter any of our analytics information, including Financial Statements, A/R, A/P, Purchases, Sales, Inventory, or even Job Costing.
A unique side-feature of this capability is that you can see chart of accounts for multiple companies side-by-side.
QQube opens each QuickBooks file programmatically and extracts the data, with options to permanently skip files after they are initially loaded, or even files that have had no activity since the last synch.
Three affordable tiers are available.
Start with one of the pre-built Excel sheels, and invoke the QQube Add-In to drag and drop live information into your spreadsheets, then take advantage of your Excel knowledge and skills. Create dynamic lists, pivot tables, and pivot charts.
