Free Small Business Software

Posted by Shelley Elmblad May 31, 2007

Now, this is a find: QuickBooks Simple Start is small business accounting software targeted at those who have not previously used QuickBooks - and there is a free version available for small businesses who have up to 20 vendor and customer accounts.

QuickBooks Simple Start is best suited for small businesses with no need for payroll or inventory features in accounting software. QuickBooks Simple Start has a nifty home page that uses a simple visual model of a small business transactions to help the user to decide where to enter those transactions. I found this software to be uncluttered and easy to use with an excellent Help section.

If your business grows to beyond 20 customers and vendors, you can easily upgrade to QuickBooks Simple Start Desktop or Online Edition, or other QuickBooks versions.

Download QuickBooks Simple Start Free Edition, but remember that although you can enter your day-to-day small business transactions, it is best to have a financial professional answer small business finance questions and help with business tax concerns.
