I use QB because my clients use QB, and I don't integrate it with UT. I've also read enough on the new ARNE replacement board to be content with my current system rather than looking to integrate UT with a current Thomson Reuters accounting product.

A software package is a package deal, and each piece of software has its own pros and cons. To me, the pros of UT in my situation beat cons including its lack of integration. Different practices would come to different conclusions.
Also, I will admit that to me, one of the cons of Lacerte is that it's part of the Intuit family. I would prefer to not give them money for their tax preparation product, mainly because of their complete disdain for my profession (including the marketing of a competing consumer-level product and their atrocious customer service in general). I recognize that it's not the most rational reason to not choose a product, but it is part of my thought process.
