Quicken is more for personal finances. Although there is a small business add on that does billing. Quick books is more geared to business. QB-Pro would suffice for most business use.

I second the Quickbook Pro. Easy to work, but then again I'am just a paintor.

Quick Books Pro
Very easy to use

I'm bookkeeping-challenged, and I've got a grasp on QBPro
(had someone set it up for me though)

quickbooks
I currently use Quicken w/ the small business features and have to buy a new one every year if I want it to do the estimated taxes feature. Is this the same way with Quickbooks?
