I have talked to people who I trust, who say that it is accessible.

Thanks for the feedback.

I was wondering if you or anyone else has experience with Accomplish Cash Manager (http://us.accomplishglobal.com/) - it seems to claim to be an accessible bookkeeping software program...

Best.

I fear you are unlikely to find a suitable product. All the accounting packages we have used have been appallingly unusable even for fully able users. Sage are probably the worst so don't even bother going there. We are using MYOB at the moment but it's also dreadful and I would like to change if only we could find anything better.

I suspect that your best bet would be a web-based application rather than a desktop application, but I have no idea if any good ones are available. That also raises the security issue of all your accounts details being held by someone else.

Can anyone recommend a user-friendly JAWS-accessible business/bookkeeping software product? I've tried QuickBooks and JAWS wasn't amused.



Thanks.
