A diferença real
Both offer free tiers, so the real question is what you get when you start paying.
Akaunting stands out with Open source accounting and Multi-company support. QuickBooks counters with Expense tracking and receipt capture and Profit and loss reports.
Akaunting's Achilles heel: self-hosting requires technical skills — and the free core is limited without buying premium app extensions. QuickBooks's: pricing has crept up aggressively — $30/mo for basic bookkeeping feels steep when wave is free. Pick whichever weakness you can live with.
