#BEST BUDGETING APP FOR MAC 2016 FOR MAC#
Here are my observations.įirst, Quicken for Mac is more stable and features work. Frustrated by the ongoing problems with Quicken for Windows, I decided to give Quicken for Mac a try. Because of the terrible reviews Quicken for Mac was getting, I bought Parallels and used my Quicken for Windows on my iMac. I have been a long time Quicken for Windows user.
#BEST BUDGETING APP FOR MAC 2016 HOW TO#
That said, it is possible if you have NEVER used any budgeting program or method at all and you just let the program do everything, Setting the budget up how Quicken wants to, then learn how to budget the way Quicken wants you to, you might be good to go.But I doubt it.
But to try to get this software to do exactly what you want it to do and to have it interact with your bank exactly how you want it to is at very best, CHALLENGING.
My degree is in Computer Networking and I have taught classes on Microsoft Office products, so I am not unfamiliar with how software works. If not the learning curve is trully a barrier to getting started with this software. I put that I would not recommend this to a friend because you really have to know the product in order to use it out of the box. Once done I'm sure it will be a useful tool. We are in the process of calling Quicken Tech support to help us solve the problems we are having with the functionality and understanding of the package. Quicken for MAC IS DIFFERENT!!!! Has DIFFERENT SCREENS, and DIFFERENT controls, so (ARE YOU LISTENING PUBLISHERS) a Quicken Help book for WINDOWS IN NO WAY helps you learn or set up Quicken for MAC. The one or two that do appear in the searches are recycled help books for Quicken for Windows wth a different cover. There are NO BOOKS out there for Quicken For Mac.
The other MAJOR ISSUE I have is not so much with the manufacturer as it is with the publishers and Amazon search and google search engines. There is no correlation with this type of budgeting. Especially if you use one of the most common forms of budgeting (envelope budgeting) for you and or your family. This is a good product but considering how many years it has been out it is really not very intuitive.
