Missing KEME Accounting. A multiplatform and opensource project. I have discovered it recently and from what I am seeing it seems the only alternative in Linux for professional use. It is worth a look.
http://keme.sourceforge.net/
good contribution Guillermo with KEME thanks for making this kind of software known for the GNU / Linux system
Good for AZPE interesting selection of software of this type I like them when they present new applications
Without a doubt Keme is the best accounting program for professionals that exists right now for Linux. I encourage you to try it, I discovered it 4 years ago and supposed that it would definitely kick contaplus
You lack a heavyweight like gnucash
How is it possible that Gnucash is not on this list!
It even has an app in the Play Store that syncs with the desktop app.
It is worth it.
+1 for Keme. I encourage you to take part in their help forum.
