Goodbye, Quicken

March 31st, 2009

After using Quicken for several years, I’ve come to the point where it’s no longer much use to me anymore. We have so many different accounts in our household (multiple savings, checking, investment, etc), and Quicken just doesn’t lay it all out in a way that is helpful. The last Mac version seems very half-hearted, and with Quicken, there’s no such thing as an upgrade. One has to buy the full version every time.

I’ve been looking for Quicken alternatives for a few days. I’ve tried a few and settled on Moneydance. As I get more familiar with the program, I’ll post my observations. So far, I’m impressed with its interface. I want to be able to see my financial health at one glance, then drill down for more specifics. This is exactly how Moneydance is set up.
