Accounting software

I’m looking for preferably free accounting software for a friends business.

Basically just invoicing and banking management.

His business is construction of movie sets and function sets like fashion shows etc.

I know this isn’t free, but Quickbooks. I use it with a nonprofit organization and it works great. I have to keep reminding the secretary to stop making work so hard and to actually use the features within Quickbooks.

Have to say that using a free piece of software for business accounts is a false economy imho. Lots seem to do well with quickbooks.

Quicken is good but I only used version 6.

I think GNUCash is the best. Free and multi platform. However, not sure how it would cope for business. For personal, it’s free and easy.

Microsoft Office Accounting Express? (http://www.msofficeaccounting.co.uk/Downloads1.aspx)

Thanks for all the input guys, much appreciated.
