When I looked at programs for this sort of thing, I concluded that
Gnucash was the most "industrial"; it was the only free program I
could readily find that would easily accomodate a double-entry-style
accounting system. Personally, I think this is wonderful, but I can
see how you'd think it's overkill, especially if you don't want to
think about how it actually works.
There do seem to be a couple of other (simpler?) options out there;
among these are gacc, gnofin, and kmymoney2. You also might find xacc
out there; it's a predecessor to gnucash, and probably won't be
particularly easier to use.
