With over 35 years in the small business accounting game, QuickBooks is essentially the gold standard of small business accounting software.
If you're just starting out and need an accounting tool that does everything, including payroll, you could do a lot worse than QuickBooks Online.
QuickBooks has its own built-in payroll service, but they also have an open-door policy towards other developers, offering seamless integration with dozens of other popular payroll apps, including Gusto, Square, and TSheets.
