 Such a bummer product. Makes me dislike my MAC September 8, 2008

I've used Windows Quicken comfortably for years. It was good enough. I've changed to Mac because of a crashed Windows computer and this has been truly painful. The data importation created 3 versions of some entries but not others. With no ability to sort by amounts I've had to tediously remove the duplications. It has different names for capital gains/ dividend etc and doesn't explain what these new labels mean.
At this point I'm ready to just use my Windows laptop. I've never rated a product this lowly ever before.
Woefully incomplete, incompatible September 8, 2008

If you're considering switching from Windows to Mac, you need to either cross Quicken off your list or forget about your old data. I have years of financial data that simply disappears or becomes corrupt when attempting to convert it from Windows to Mac Quicken. The best Intuit will do for you is charge you to reset your balances (seriously!). We decided we'd just start with new books, but then found the Mac version so be so short of features compared to the Windows that we simply abandoned it and now run Windows Quicken on XP under Parallels. When we can find a Mac product by *anybody* that can import the Quicken data, we're kicking Intuit to the curb without regret.

I has a PC version where when you look at the calendar, you can also track monies spend day per day. Can not find this useful feature.
 Quciken from Win to Mac August 31, 2008

After using Quicken for Win for more than a decade the Mac version is disappointing. I have gotten used to it, after much effort, but I do not understand why it is missing some of the functionality. I think the Quicken team should be embarrassed about the difficulty of moving from Windows to Mac. I never did get it right. I highly recommend following the suggestion on the Quicken site but even then it is a painful process.
If you are starting from scratch on the Mac this version should be fine. I am becoming more accustomed to it. It certainly handles the basic checking and savings just fine. I miss the attachments function. My loan accounts did not port over. The reports are better in Windows. Some of the investment functionality seems to be missing, though my basic brokerage account works fine.
In the end this seems to be the only option for the Mac anyway so I guess the Quicken folks can be neglectful.
I Hate, Hate, Hate Intuit Quicken for Mac!!!! August 19, 2008
This version is buggy (like all Mac Quicken versions have been), and is annoyingly short on features. It will download the same transaction from my bank multiple times. And I can't get rid of some auto-fill categories, no matter how many times I delete them.
What's worse: Quicken Financial Life for Mac, due about the same time Quicken 2009 would have been available, is going to have even less features than Quicken 2007 for Mac (which was released in 2006). Of course, that doesn't mean Intuit will charge any less for the "upgrade." I'm sure QFL will end up being a subscription service, so Intuit can get money from the people who normally only upgrade every couple years.
I only wish there was a viable alternative to Quicken! I've tried all the other Mac financial applications, and they're all lacking, mostly in auto-download capability. Why can't somebody make a better application than this dog?
