Yesterday, I was approached by a friend who is intending to make a switch from Windows to Linux. He is proficient at Advanced level accounting and mid level in technical concepts meaning that open source accounting software alternatives with a bit of complexity won’t bother him.
I know that QuickBooks reign supreme in the accounting software niche in windows but do we have open source alternatives that can be as efficient? Suggestions needed please.
Take a look at:
To my knowledge, GnuCash is the most powerful and sophisticated tool for the purpose.
GNU Cash is my favourite that I would recommend as a Linux Accounting software. It is not just suited for business accounting but it helps with managing personal finances and it’s open source community provides continuous support.
It will be hard decision to switch from Windows to Linux especially if you are working for years with softwares like Sage or Ciel but they provide their online solution especially if all your work is there.
