My 2cents worth (I tend to make this same argument everytime the subject comes up, so ignore this if you have heard it before).
IMO looking for Quicken alternatives is akin to looking for Buggy Whip replacements . . . unless you are a business and need the accounting support, what does Quicken (or any replacement) do for you that you really need done?
I say this as a long time Quicken user, after that MoneyDance (but for the last 5 years I am clean--having gone cold turkey on the Money Mgt software).
The generally accepted truism is that if you have money or use money (applies to all of us) then you have to manage it (reasonable enough) ergo a Money Management Software package makes sense (this last part I disagree with). Quicken is a soloution. Do you really have a problem it solves?
I will end my rant with the following summary of what Quicken (and its alternative) do for you (or at least what I have had argued to me that it does):
1) Simplify on-line Banking -- Really? I use on-line banking and have for years. Its hard to see anything simpler than going to your bank's website and using their system.
2) Keep track of transactions -- This made sense many years ago when my transactions were mainly paper, a lot of them sent through the mail, and the update I got from my bank was monthly (also through the mail).
Today, when 90% plus of my (and I suspect your) transactions are electronic, and I can access in almost real time the status of them, I have found no value in this, maybe just me.
3) Balance my account -- Why? The bank automatically balances my account. I can see all of the transactions and if there is a dispute I'm going to have to document and talk to a real person anyway, and I guarantee they are not going to take Quicken's word in the argument.
4) Budget -- hard to beat Excel (or Numbers, or any other spreadsheet for this task)
5) Preparation and documentation for filing your Taxes -- Do you really do this? If so you probably need an Accountant, and he has his own software.
Anyway, I'm done. Thanks for reading (or ignoring) whichever is appropriate.
