Where GnuCash fits
Choose it when you want local control over personal or small-business records.
Check before you choose
Decide on an account structure and backup routine before entering a large transaction history.
Find the right edition
Start with the destination for your device or the publisher's website. Use the current requirements and terms there to confirm the edition you need.
Compare the workflow
Start with the task: household budgeting, business bookkeeping, payroll, payments or a U.S. tax return. Tax products depend on the filing year and federal or state coverage; payment and account services have their own eligibility rules.
