GnuCash
The words “free accounting” are music to Rob Clymo’s freelance ears.
IN BRIEF
GnuCash is personal and small-business financial-accounting software that’s been well maintained since 2001. More critical types might accuse it of being a little dated, but the features and functions do all work once you’ve picked your way through the quite time-consuming setup and configuration stages. It’s an ideal option for someone running a small business who needs to keep a firm grasp on cashflow.
GnuCash is a completely free open source accounting package that is impressive to say the least. Although it has more of an accounts-style edge, the program lets you tackle all manner of financial chores, including overall management of your money.
