It will vary depending on who you talk to.

Turbo Cash is free and works great.

(select your country there before you download as there are different customizations and sample for each country).

Most people i know swear Softline Pastel is the best.
Theres Acpak, and IQ as well. Overall though i find Quickbooks the easiest one to use. it might not be the best but it’s good to start with. I have just started learning it though.

If i am correct Quickbooks has different packages for different kinds of businesses. maybe you should ask your Financial Auditor/Firm which he/she/they believe will suit your business best.
