backup for QuickBooks alternative

QuickBooks Desktop is insisting I have to pay for a QuickBooks Online subscription, but I want to keep using the desktop version if I can. Can I? Even if I can, what is the best way to backup, so that I'm ready to switch to an alternative software if needed?

QuickBooks says soon I won't be able to "calculate payroll taxes, process payments, or download transactions from your bank."

I use QB for an all-volunteer organization with no payroll. The org uses other software to process payments. I don't download transactions from the bank, but I do import transactions into QB Desktop from a file every month. In other words, I don't use "Bank Feeds." I go to the File menu, select Utilities, then Import, then IIF Files.

The org's only purpose for QB is to track the debits and credits, and run reports. Will the desktop version really stop working for these purposes? Or will it only stop integrating with things we already don't use it to integrate with?

I want to make sure everything the org needs is backed up and ready to switch to another software just in case. I already back up the Company File regularly. Will I be able to open the Company File in other software? I feel like I should save Excel files or csv maybe, but what information specifically?
