Cloud-hosted QuickBooks refers to accessing your QuickBooks software from a remote desktop that is connected to a secure cloud server where all your data and files are stored. You can safely login to this remote desktop from any location with your internet-connected device using a custom username and password, and use QuickBooks as you would on a regular desktop.
