Is this something designed to replace Quickbooks entirely? Something like this would be nice for my situation. I can't run quickbooks from Ubuntu, and I don't like booting into Windows whenever I need to do anything.

Yes, it is. Browser-based, so that you don't run into sharing issues (common in small companies), or platform issues (common with cutting-edge companies).

Try GNUCash? It's not bad.

Yes I've used it, and it is pretty good. The problem is I need a platform independent application... Or a dedicated windows computer to replace the other partition on my notebook's hard drive.

Yeah... I can't say I've tried it, but I think you can get older versions of Quickbooks working in WINE. And there is always a virtual machine.

There's also a number of web based accounting software, like the online version of Quickbooks, NetSuite, and Intacct.
