I've been using Quasar Accounting from http://www.linuxcanada.com/ for about 9 years for my business. What do you use for a tax package? This is, IMHO, the 1 thing that keeps small to large business from moving to Linux!
It certainly would be nice to have, but every single SOHO/SMB I know of out sources their tax prep; they just provide some CPA or firm copies of their records. So I don't think lack of tax software has much of an impact on LINUX adoption.
Hi list and listmates... - at least for Denmark, let me tell you otherwise.... - You can do anything with Linux, but NOT your bookeeping (we're talking real businesses here, not privately). MS is completely DOMINANT with Navision/Dynamics (former Navigator) in this country. It is a MAJOR obstacle. I ALLWAYS need to have a Win2003 box running Navision. The rest may be Linux...The only solution to this is a MAJOR company coming up with a cloud/service based solution. These do exist, but not good enough for enterprises/corporations. Just my ten cents :-) -- ------------------------------ Med venlig hilsen/Best regards Verner Kjærsgaard Open Source Academy +45 56964223 Novell Certified Linux Professional 10035701 Linux Counter no 114954 ------------------------------ -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
