License: GPL-3.0 — Core is GPL-3.0; many apps in the marketplace (payroll, advanced reports, double-entry pack) are paid.
Good fit for SMBs and freelancers who want a clean QuickBooks-shaped UI with optional paid extensions for the gaps.
Weak at Double-entry accounting is a paid app on top of the free core — accountants may insist on the paid pack.

Use the official `akaunting/akaunting` image with a MariaDB backend. QuickBooks export: from QBO, run Reports → All Reports → Profit & Loss / Balance Sheet / General Ledger; export to CSV. Akaunting's import accepts CSV for Customers, Vendors, Items, Invoices, and Bills (one-shot import per entity). Bank feeds aren't included — install the community Plaid-bridge app or import OFX/CSV statements manually.
