I use Quickbooks 2011 desktop. It's pretty 1995 when it comes to user interface, but it actually does everything I need and want, and I wouldn't move without very good reason. It has the online connecting stuff that you're talking about, but I've heard from a lot of CPAs that using that feature correctly is more difficult than it sounds.

Business accounting is one of the most non-modern fields I've ever seen.

I use Quickbooks currently and it is great. But, it's robust, unnecessary, and I'm thinking that there are others that are overwhelmed and could use an easy service - especially for startups. I'm not an accountant or in that field, so I hardly pay attention. I was hoping to flush out some hidden gem I wasn't aware of, otherwise, quickbooks gets the job done.
