I would strongly advise against Quickbooks because of how terrible Intuit is to work with... I can't support that company at all - they have evil business practices. In our business, Intuit locks Quickbooks customers in to their extremely expensive processing solution, with no API to get transactions in or out.
A few great startups to try - I've heard good things about all of them.
http://Outright.com http://Outright.com - $10/mo
http://waveaccounting.com http://waveaccounting.com - Free (double entry accounting).
http://lessaccounting.com/ http://lessaccounting.com/ seems to have a good interface - $30/mo
Intuit has put a good deal of lobbying money towards blocking proposals to have the federal government send you pre-filled out tax forms that would make everything much easier.

- mvip 15y ago+1 for LessAccounting. We've been using it for a few years now and it works fine, and you can export your bank statements into it. Recently we just brought on a 'real' accountant to audit our accounting and prepare reports (after a few years of pro-bono from accounting friends). Hence we are still working out all the details, but I'm pretty happy with the workflow if it pans out.
