Kitsmith / Utilities / AccountEdge Pro
Desktop double-entry accounting for small businesses on Mac — invoicing, payroll, inventory, and a full general ledger, running locally rather than in a browser.
Our take
The clearest “real accounting software, not just invoicing” option here — AccountEdge Pro covers sales, purchases, banking, payroll, inventory, and a general ledger in one desktop app, and per the vendor it has been sold to small businesses since 1989. It runs locally rather than in a browser tab, with an optional paid add-on (AccountEdge Connect, from $15/mo) for browser-based remote access, or a separate hosted plan ($50/mo per user) if you want it fully cloud-hosted instead. Single-user pricing is $20/mo.
