I know it may be heresy, but simple accounting for Windows (not web based), is 
about $100, or so, and it is just great for business. Comes ready made for 
Canadian (Quebec) setups (i.e) tax calculations
English or French available on the CD.  uses an SQL database. 

Took me a few hours to get going and as time went on, I gained proficiency in 
it. Still don't know it all.  But it is easy to use, for business, and have not 
spotted errors.

I use MoneyDance for quite a few years now, both for home office finances, and 
for the accounts of a couple of nonprofits. Runs on any system with java 
support. I don't think there is any specific built-in support for sales taxes, 
but it's relatively easy to make "splits" for a given transaction and use those 
for sales tax, so that each tax will show up in a separate account (category) 
when you run reports at month end or when doing your taxes. 

Prior to moneydance, I used quicken for mac, but successive versions became 
progressively more buggy and problematic. Moneydance was the best alternative 
for mac at the time. I am not aware of how it compares to the competition now, 
but I don't have any reason to switch software.
