I'm starting to do some freelance work, and I need to get a good program to keep track of clients, jobs, estimates, invoices, and stuff like that.

I was thinking of getting Quickbooks, but I don't know anything about this stuff. Can anyone give me some pointers?

Quickbooks is a good choice.

I have been using Quickbooks for over 4 years now. I tried Simply Accounting, MYOB, and quicken, but none of them compare to the simplicity and functionality of Quickbooks. You wont be dissapointed.

Interesting. This is "my" dept. actually (I work in the financial dept) so it's interesting to know what packet is popular in the US for small and middel businesses (the ones for big businesses are world known, of course. We use Oracle Financials which is also American). If I'm not mistaken Sage is the most popular in the UK for S&M businesses and in Holland it is Exact. But Exact is not known outside Holland.

sage is very popular over here but its a usability nightmare to begin with when as a small company you just need to log your incomings, outgoings and invoices.

Awai.
