Really, truly, I think QB is the only mainstream alternative left. Personally, I and a number of other Microsoft people use Microsoft Office Accounting. But MSFT dumped it late last year, and 2009 SP3 is probably the last update we'll ever see.
My plan is to, sometime next year, move over to QB. I may try one of the free alternatives, but probably not. My accountant is giving me pressure to move to QB as well. He's tired of CSV's.

Anyone care to give recommendations in the small business/SOHO accounting product space? QuickBooks is very common, but also rather expensive, and in the past I've had horrible experiences with Intuit customer service, and I've learned that "most common" does not mean "best". For this user, traditional software and web services are both acceptable. They've got just one PC, running Vista. I Googled "quickbooks alternatives" and found a bunch of hits, but this is one of those areas where practical experience is invaluable, so I thought I'd see if anyone here has anything they'd want to share. Recommendations on what to avoid would also be useful. advTHANKSance -- Ben ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
