PC appears to only for America….. How is MoneyWiz cheaper than MoneyDance? I have used Qucken ever since the demise of Microsoft Money. I have needs that seem to me very uncomplicated: I need a product that will download my bank transactions, will track and project my monthly expenditures, and generate a report showing cleared and anticipated banking transactions for the current month.

Is there an alternative that will do what I need at lower cost? I really need quicken for my personal banking. Please help! Long-time Quicken user even though I changed platforms to Mac in and put up with its woefully crude version for Apple users.

I need to know which of these alternatives will generate for me an annual summary by category of both Income and Expenses for tax purposes…..

I also download banking and investment transactions through Quicken. Can you help? Hey Susan, You might want to look into Tiller. It can generate reports, including itemized deductions, annual spending by category, etc. STOP the incessant altering and revamping. It does not work as well for the end users. It seems there are no alternatives which do everything Quicken could, if it worked well. Just started a 30day trial with Banktivity. So far although I have Capital One accounts I have been repeatedly unable to have the Banktivity account get online despite, correct credentials, etc.

With no results to show for it. I am having trouble finding a Quicken replacement. While many of these noted here are fine check register and money management, I do not see one that includes online bill payment integration. Online bill payment is a key Quicken feature, schedule a payment, see it immediately in the check register.

I do not use it at all for budgeting, only for investments. I am looking for an alternative that will give me my cost basis and current value. Anything out their worth trying? Give MoneyDance a try.

I am experimenting with MD now. I imported everything even though MD says there is no qif option in Q I did it and it worked amazingly well. Lot of clean up and deleting of defunct accounts, but much better results than when I tried a couple of years ago. I may have run into a problem with investment transaction classification but think I can figure out a workaround. MD hiccuped on the return of capital and has not recorded change in basis correctly. I plan on keeping my old Q data for reference only once I actually make the switch.

The only thing that had been holding me back was the import issue. MD seems to have everything I need; local files, no cloud, portfolio management, bank import, reasonable cost and no dicking around with silly passwords and accounts and such. How were you so lucky?

The option to export a qif file is right there in the Q export menu. I first exported my entire data file and imported into MD. Then, as I cleaned up, I found I had to re-import so I picked the specific account I needed and exported the qif file and re-imported into MD. It is there! Have had no end of issues with Quicken and frankly detest the software. Complete waste of my time!

Really annoying! Then, providing I have categorized thousands of transactions correctly throughout the year, I simply print out a report, and hand to it my CPA as the basis of my tax returns. Given the choice between cloud and downloaded desktop apps, I trust cloud more. It PAINS me to still be using Quicken, hopefully tax year will be the last and I would love to find that online solution asap to start taxes with a clean slate.

It started out mainly as a budgeting app, but it also runs reports on your annual spending by category and itemized deductions.

The program automatically downloads your transactions and runs through Google Sheets, so it is cloud-based. One of the knocks against Quicken is that it changed its model to a yearly subscription service. That certainly is one knock against it, but most pay-to-play services have moved toward that model. The one big negative I see with Tiller that stands out to me is the inability to reconcile transactions.

Is there any software that you can manually load checking acct tranactions via CSV or similar file and still track other accts online? I have checking and savings at a small credit union that does not have capabilities of allowing online linking and downloading like what seems to be almost every other financial establishment offers.

I want mac based not cloud based software and need to be able to port my data from Quicken. My needs are simple reports, and a checkbook type interface for tax purposes.

All my devices are Apple. What do you recommend? Quicken has never developed a way to effectively export its data to a standardized format so it can be used by another program. They promised it literally for decades and never came through. What I did and worked well for me is to consider everything on Quicken as legacy and begin anew with a new program like Moneydance.

Back in when I did this, I doubled entry for three months, putting data into both programs, then kissed Quicken good-bye and have Quicken on my computer just to look at that data if absolutely necessary. I tried it a year or so ago, and it was a disaster. This time after seeing an article stating Q had stopped supporting the qfx format, i gave it a try for the hell of it, planning on complaining to Q.

Waste of time I know, but it does make me feel better for a little bit. There is tons of stuff to clean up but there will be with any conversion. I am now convinced I will be able to leave Q, once and for all. Donald, I would be very careful and not throw away Q any time soon. But it all depends on what you were using it for. Most of those would be with investment accounts. See my other post. Thank you, quickdraw, for the caution. Five years ago, I made an archive file of Q to reduce the size of the data file and still have to pop it open so I assume the same thing will happen once I make the move.

Portfolio does have some complex transactions and I think some will be a problem with MD. I know how to make adjustments to keep portfolio in balance with statements and I retain cost documentation. I only have 12 stocks that would be affected by complexities, balance is mutual funds and preferred stocks. Less of a problem than Q dropping transactions and losing three months of reconciliations on banks and credit cards. I just gave Tiller a day test run. However, it was my experience that one really needs a PhD in spreadsheets in order to do much of the analysis and report running.

However, my time is much better spent with a simpler solution. My current solution is to use Mint to manage and run analysis on my spending accounts bank accounts, credit cards, mortgage, car loans, etc. I would move over to Personal Capital for everything if they would fix a few things.

My biggest issue with Personal Capital is their inability to allow split transactions. Neither Mint nor Personal Capital allow for account reconciliations which would be a nice addition as well.

I am not sure if PC offers the same feature. For many of us, who have significant historical data and relatively complex finances, Quicken is THE only option. I have tried many of the above solutions, endured hours of testing … only to find some major deal-breaker that was not obvious because of the slick, glitz and glam interfaces.

Hate it if you will as I sometimes do and have in the past , each one of these options above has its shortcomings, sometimes even more substantial than Quicken. However, if you are new to the world of money management and just starting out to use software to manage your finances, then one of these options may very well work for you, at least in the short run. But eventually, you will most likely realize the shortcomings of your chosen package.

This could be related to reporting or tax tracking and include such things as return of capital, capital gains, short sales, stock splits, re-investments, etc. None of these solutions provide anywhere near the functionality that is available in Quicken, at least the ones that I have tried. Eventually, when and if these things become important to you, you will need to switch platforms to something like Quicken that can handle most anything you can throw at it.

Quicken Canada version does not support downloading of investment transactions. A non-starter for most of us. For several years I used MoneyCounts a very simple program but it was bought out and ended up being discarded by Intuit and users advised to use Quicken. I to want a simple program that will keep an electronic register on multiple bank accounts and capable of downloading bank transactions that is not cloud based.

I tried Moneydance but could never link it to download transactions from any of my banks in mid-America. Would someone please come up with a simple accounting program.

While not being a budgeting program per se if it had the capability of doing fund accounting an individual could allocate their income to the various funds and be directly subtracted when the expenditure account whether called a Category of account is set up to come from a given fund is posted to in the register. I have been using Quicken for 20 years.. When I attempt to download transactions, it starts and then causes Quicken to force close.

Been going on for 4 weeks now. I keep submitting their force close error report but nobody does anything to fix it. I even installed on a second PC I have and it does the very same thing on it..

I believe Quicken has done this on purpose to force people into their subscription service…. Depressing as I have learned all the ins and outs with quicken.. In your case, the question is whether the subscription service allows you to do what you want to do. If it does, then it might be better to just pay for the subscription service, or go back to the earlier version of Quicken that did what you wanted it to do and stay with that. Where do I start? Our financial structure has changed completely.

We have 10 credit cards, 3 bank accounts, Roth, Soc Sec income, Rental income and mics. Customer service is a big one too as I know just enough to really screw things up. It always had too many confusing facets. My accountant like QB for tax purposes.

I do use Mint for a quick look at finances and on my phone when away from home. I can forecast what ifs, download transactions to do check reconciliation, keep track of money transfers between accounts and do automatic transaction processing when I want to. Some transactions I prefer to do manually.

I can change payment dates and control just about everything. There are some processes I lost when MS dropped support for this amazing software, but to this day I can not find a replacement for what was left. I would appreciate any suggestions you may have as a replacement for MS Money.

The replacement has to be installed locally on the PC and the data, yup, no trust in online, has to be kept local on the hard drive. I can connect to register and get updates as well as download my transactions.

Suggestions welcomed. I just spent an hour in chat support with Quicken tonight. They informed me that their software had a problem and I can no longer use special characters in my banking passwords. I informed them that securing my bank accounts is very important to me and I can no longer use Quicken.

I am outraged at their betrayal in making this change without informing their customers. Will Quicken, as we know it, be completely out of business soon? Will they still be arounf in two years. I too am looking for an alternative for Quicken. I simply want the ability to manually enter transactions and manually reconcile my bank accounts. I never allowed Quicken to connect to my accounts. I do like entering when bill payments are due however. Basically a checkbook register.

Running Windows That large standard deduction is set to expire in or 26, I believe. Fifty bucks and your done until you want to upgrade. ALL I wanted and needed was a checkbook program for home, to import Microsoft Money from, when that was discontinued.

I hear you. I have been reading these reviews but there are no dates to know when anyone posted them. I need two things in a replacement for Quicken-the check register look and feel and ability to import data history from Quicken Any suggestions. Many thanks for the help. PersonalCapital weaned me away from almost everything else. Even with a portfolio that includes business income, real estate, and paper assets, I have never found a need to move away from Excel where I can custom design my fields and how I track them.

Nice that you have either so little activity or, lots of time to manually enter all your transactions rather than downloading them. Or, have you found a way of importing into Excel? And there are payments for that in that they manage or assist you with your accounts. Everything now is becoming cloud based.

I also love Personal Capital as a way to see a full financial snapshot in real time. Keeping a close tab on my financial situation has made it easier for me to budget and save money. Thanks for providing this list. I definitely want to check out a few of the other tools you recommend. I was so close to pulling the trigger on Moneydance, only to discover that direct connect is the only option for downloading transactions, which is not supported by half my accounts.

Tried Moneywiz and it might be a usable alternative. Have been using Quicken for years, I work as a Contract Draftsman [Sole Trader] and issue an invoice for my wages. As Quicken is finally defunct, I am looking for a replacement that has invoices and is suitable to the Australian Tax System. The invoice also contains a second entry as a negative amont [Salary Sacrifice]. Will any of those do invoices?

Wave Financial waveapps. I use Quicken to balance and monitor my checking and credit card accounts — for no other purpose than that. When I read these reviews, they seem to be about tracking investments, which is not what I use Quicken for. So when looking for alternatives to Quicken, it is crucial for me that the software connect easily to the institutions that I deal with, download the transactions and compare them to what I enter.

In reading other reviews, I see Moneyspire as a good replacement program for Quicken to check transactions. It is not reviewed here. Was wondering if anyone has tried it. Another long-time Quicken user here. I also have multiple accounts for my personal banking — multiple banks, credit cards, loans, etc. I will not consider any software that keeps any of my personal data banks, account numbers, etc anywhere but on my personal disk.

Just NO. And I use a VPN. If Quicken wants me to buy new versions, let them fix some bugs, upgrade their features, etc. I have been in the habit of upgrading my Quicken every 2 to 3 years. Not willing to subscribe to it. Quicken has poor customer service. I asked a question on their forum. A top contributor did not read my question and typed in nonsense. I called this person out and said, read the question before running your mouth and Quicken blocked me because I was the bad person in their scenario.

Quicken is stupid. I am looking for a replacement.
