Overview

Manager.io is accounting software from New Zealand that runs as a free desktop application, with a paid licence for those wanting a server edition. It covers invoicing, bank accounts, inventory and reports for small businesses. It suits people comfortable setting up their own system, as it is less hand-held than mainstream cloud services.
