Switch from QuickBooks
Leave QuickBooks —
take everything with you.
Intuit’s price climbs and your data is hard to get back. LineLedger imports your full QuickBooks history, holds a flat $25 USD/month that never ratchets, and lets you export to a portable ZIP anytime — so you’re never locked in again.
A price that can’t ratchet
$25/month, flat — and source-available under the AGPLv3, so the promise is enforceable. If we ever broke it, you could fork the code and run it yourself.
Your data is yours
Leave anytime with a portable ZIP export — your whole company in one file you hold. No lock-in, no ransom, no “export is a paid feature.”
Read every line
LineLedger is source-available. Audit exactly how your books are calculated — or self-host and pay us nothing.
How the switch works
Three steps from QuickBooks to clean books in LineLedger.
Export from QuickBooks
Pull your chart of accounts, your customer and vendor lists, and a full general-ledger report out of QuickBooks. Our export guide walks through exactly what to grab.
Import into LineLedger
Bring your chart of accounts in and replay your general-ledger history across as many files as it takes — accounts mapped, contacts linked, refund checks tracked.
Reconcile and carry on
Check your opening balances and trial balance, then keep working — invoicing, bills, sales tax, and drill-through reports, all on a price that never ratchets.
Your QuickBooks history comes with you
We import your chart of accounts and replay your complete general ledger — multi-file, full history, accounts mapped and contacts linked. And because every company exports to a portable ZIP, leaving is as easy as arriving. No fresh start, and no lock-in — in either direction.
- Import a QuickBooks chart of accounts
- Multi-file, full-history general ledger replay
- Maps accounts, links contacts & tracks refund checks
Common questions
- Will I lose my history when I switch?
- No. LineLedger imports your QuickBooks chart of accounts and replays your full general-ledger history across multiple files, mapping accounts and linking contacts, so your books carry over — no fresh start.
- Can I get my data back out later?
- Anytime. Every company exports to a self-contained, portable ZIP, and every report exports to CSV or XLSX. Cancel and your books stay readable to the end of the period. Leaving is as easy as arriving — that is the point.
- What does it cost after I move?
- A flat $25 USD/month per company (or $250/year), with a 14-day free trial and no credit card to start. Free forever for non-profits and associations. Or self-host the AGPLv3 source and pay nothing.
