I'd looked at this one a while ago too, but decided on
SQL-Ledger from http://www.sql-ledger.com for several
key reasons.

+ SQL-Ledger is web-based, similar to OGo's web-ui. 
Quasar is client/server, with a QT "thick" client.

+ SQL-Ledger has been GPL'd since the beginning, and
has a fairly extensive support infrastructure (ie,
mailing lists and lots of stuff on the web including
WIKI's)  There's also just one product, with paying
customers getting first kick at the can, so to speak
(more current version that what gets released
publicly).  Quasar has the GPL'd version, and the
"Retail" version.

+ SQL-Ledger has supported PostgreSQL since the
beginning.  Quasar's support is a more recent thing. 
I've heard that Dieter (the author of SQL-Ledger) has
done some PG triggers to sync OGo's
contacts/Enterprises and SQL-Ledgers
vendors/customers, so integration is possible on the
PG front.

My $0.02 worth...
