I've spent time with a few different accounting systems and Quickbooks basically wins the "drastically reduce the amount of work Award." There is a cloud version and Mac specific version, though I've not tried either.

There is some really cool stuff she can do. Let's take the purchasing cycle for a sec. Does she have a business debit/credit card she uses for all her purchases? If it's with a major bank she can import all the transactions directly from the bank, tell Quickbooks to put catering supplies bought from vendor X into account Y automatically going forward and overtime minimize bookkeeping. And since it pulls this directly from the bank it minimize month end reconciliations as well.

There are downsides, but for a small business its almost always a significant step up in efficiency and reliability, allowing her more time to analyze the numbers or manage her business and de-stressing a lot of bookkeeping and accounting.
