Six Industry Editions, One Hosted QuickBooks Premier
QuickBooks Premier tracks expenses, pays monthly bills, and prints checks — with inventory management, payroll and payroll tax handling, and customer payments built in. Cloud Innovics hosts it for small and medium businesses, with the same seamless, professional QuickBooks Premier experience, delivered on the cloud.

QuickBooks Premier comes in six editions, each tuned to how a specific kind of business actually runs. Whichever fits, we host it the same way — reliably, and with room to grow.
Inventory Management
Built-in tools for tracking stock, purpose-made for Premier’s Retail and Wholesale editions.
Payroll & Payroll Tax
Full payroll and payroll tax management handled inside the same software you already use.
Customer Payments
Accept and track customer payments without juggling a separate system.

Know Your License
Before You Host Premier: What Intuit Says
Hosting changes where QuickBooks runs, not what your Intuit license allows. These are Intuit’s own statements, last reviewed 28 October 2026.
Intuit changes these policies from time to time, so confirm on Intuit’s Desktop service discontinuation policy. For a comparison with QuickBooks Online, see our Desktop vs Online guide.

Hosting vs. Local Install
QuickBooks Premier Hosting vs. Running It Locally
Hosting keeps the Intuit license you already own and changes where Premier physically runs. Here is how that compares with a local install.
| Hosted Premier | Installed Locally | |
|---|---|---|
| Remote access | Sign in from any device or location | Tied to the office network unless you set up remote access yourself |
| Several users | Shared company file, within what your Intuit license allows (5 on Premier) | Needs a properly configured shared network or server |
| Hardware | Runs on our managed servers, nothing to buy | Your own computer or server, replaced as it ages |
| Backups | Daily backups included on every plan | You set up and check your own backups |
| Maintenance | Updates and monitoring handled for you | Your own IT time or an outside technician |
| Cost structure | Flat monthly hosting fee, free migration and setup | Upfront hardware plus ongoing IT time |
FAQs
Frequently asked questions about QuickBooks Premier hosting
What is QuickBooks Premier hosting?
Your QuickBooks Premier software and company file run on our remote servers instead of one office computer. You and your staff connect through an encrypted remote session that works like a local install, with no server hardware to buy or maintain.
How many people can use QuickBooks Premier at once?
Intuit says QuickBooks Desktop Premier lets 5 users work in the same company file. Anyone who needs more than 5 is directed to Enterprise. Your Intuit license sets how many people can work in QuickBooks at once; hosting does not change that.
Do I need to buy a license from Cloud Innovics?
No. You bring your own Intuit license and we host the server and environment it runs on.
Does hosting work with my payroll and payments setup?
Hosting changes where QuickBooks runs, not which Intuit services you subscribe to. Check Intuit for the current status of payroll and payments for your version, especially if you run a 2023 product that Intuit has discontinued.
Which Premier industry editions can you host?
We host all six Premier editions: General Business, Manufacturing, Wholesale, Nonprofit, Contractor and Retail. Each runs the same way once it is on the hosted server.
Can I still buy a new QuickBooks Premier license?
Intuit says that after September 30, 2024 it no longer sells new Premier Plus subscriptions to new U.S. customers, while existing subscribers can keep renewing. We host the license you already own. If you are not sure what you can buy or renew, ask Intuit first.
How are my files backed up?
Every plan includes daily backups plus malware and hacking protection for the files you store, whatever the plan size.
What happens to my data if I cancel hosting?
You get a full export of your company file and data before your account is closed, so nothing stays locked on our servers.
