GnuCash is a free, open-source personal and small-business double-entry accounting application. It tracks bank accounts, stocks, income, and expenses with a checkbook-style register, scheduled transactions, and reporting.
Use cases
- track personal bank accounts and expenses
- manage small business bookkeeping with double-entry accounting
- track stock, bond, and mutual fund portfolios
- import QIF and CSV transactions from banks
- create recurring scheduled transactions and budgets
- generate financial reports and balanced books
When to choose
- you need free, GPL-licensed accounting software on Linux, macOS, or Windows
- you want proper double-entry bookkeeping rather than a simple expense tracker
- you prefer desktop software with local data files over cloud services
- you need multi-currency and stock tracking for personal or small-business finance
When to avoid
- you need a mobile app - there is no official iOS support and the Android app is abandoned
- you want multi-user, networked, or cloud-synced accounting
- you need invoicing and payroll features of full ERP/accounting suites
- you prefer a modern web-based interface
