I would advise against anything free in this sector.
In fact.
We had Quickbooks, it was great, it was Windows only, it was one system only unless we paid an absolute fortune to upgrade to a network version (which was windows only, which wasn't workable due to our IT policy which allowed people to use non-Windows OSes).
We don't use Quickbooks anymore, nor do we recommend it. I would say we'd quite happily pay for a web service providing we can get the data out in a format we can use...
