Well, I haven't used it, but given that their page says "Designed for 
Business Use (not Personal Finance)" it seems an unlikely fit. Generally 
any time I hear "general ledger" I don't think of home checkbook 
balancing. And if you look at their screenshots, you'll see it is an 
archaic-looking text-based app - anyone used to Quicken or QuickBooks is 
likely to be unimpressed. Probably work great for a real accounting 
department needing true multi-user capability.
