QuickBooks Online does 6 jobs: invoices, online payment of invoices, expense and receipt tracking, bank feeds and reconciliation, bookkeeping, time tracking and billing for time. Most projects replace one or two of them, so pick the job you actually need.
Open-source alternatives to QuickBooks Online that run locally, allow commercial use and need no paid API include InvoicePlane (invoices and online payment of invoices; MIT) and SolidInvoice (invoices and online payment of invoices; MIT). None of the 11 projects we track covers all 6 QuickBooks Online jobs, so most people combine two or more.
