Intuit is stepping up its QuickBooks game. The Mountain View, Calif.-based tech giant yesterday announced a new online app companion for its popular accounting software solution. The latest offering in the QuickBooks Online ecosystem will be available for PCs that run the Windows operating system.

Billed by Intuit as a product that "brings the power of the cloud to the desktop for Windows users," the new QuickBooks solution allows people to access its cloud-based service directly from their desktop computers. The app features full Windows support, including PC keyboard shortcuts, toolbars and menus. Of course, also included are all of the standard QuickBooks features designed to streamline small business owners' day-to-day financial tasks. These include expense and sales tracking, tax record preparation and invoice creation and management.
