The Short Version
QuickBooks is software you operate. Solarium is bookkeeping that runs itself. You can use both, with Solarium doing the work and pushing clean data into QuickBooks if that's where your accountant wants it.

You Don't Have To Choose
This isn't really Solarium against QuickBooks. Plenty of Solarium customers keep QuickBooks Online because their accountant likes it. Solarium does the bookkeeping, then syncs the result into QuickBooks so the data is clean on both sides. Your books are the system of record in Solarium, QuickBooks is the destination.
