    Accounting vs Personal Finance. I'm looking for a Quickbooks alternative because it is expensive, and Quicken doesn't offer the right features for my Small Business.

    Ledger is a powerful, double-entry accounting system that is accessed from the UNIX command-line. This may put off some users, since there is no flashy UI, but for those who want unparalleled reporting access to their data there are few alternatives.
