I use gnucash for tracking all of my personal and corporate finances. The interface is quite different, but I appreciate that gnucash is more traditional (like pen and paper) than QuickBooks. It is not a drop-in replacement for QB by any strech of the imagination, but if you are comfortable with accounting I highly recommend it. The help/ documentation is top notch. I consider it to be one of the best and most polished GUI free software apps. Give it a try!

Morning y'all,

Long time no posts! I've searched the archives and didn't find anything too recent and am hoping things may have changed since those posts. I've been using Quickbooks on my OSX install for small business accounting since it was a portable machine. I've recently acquired a laptop to use purely for business and am running Karmic Koala with XFCE on it.

I need to find an app that is most similar to Quickbooks Pro to use natively since Quickbooks hasn't really made me happy in Wine. I need more than just tracking balances since I keep all of my chart of accounts, inventories and such in there as well. I am wondering if GnuCash or KMyMoney have the features I need (I haven't used either since well before I needed these features) or if there is a newer program that is a closer match? I'd like to find out before resorting to adding a bunch of features and libraries to get either of them to work without Gnome or KDE.

Thanks in advance,

Rachel
