I understand this question comes up time and time again, and I have read through the older threads but am not sure they answer my question.
I an converting from a pc and I have been using Quicken Home and Business. I need a program that will allow me to do what I was doing with Quicken.
What I need:
1. Ability to track multiple checking and savings accounts. Basically, just a computer based checkbook register that allows me to transfer funds between account registers (I will actually transfer funds through my bank's site - this is just for tracking purposes).
2. Ability to enter and track all monthly bills and deposits, reminding me about upcoming bills and deposits.
What I do not need:
1. I do not need to track investments, stocks, 401k's.
2. I do not need the software to pay my bills. I will do this myself through the billing companies respective website or I will be writing checks.
3. I do not need to print checks.
4. I do not need to generate reports or keep track of tax information.
I am throwing all this out here because I have been reading the reviews for products like Quicken Essentials and iBank and the majority of the negative feedback seems to be focused on things I would never use either for (investments, printing checks, and paying bills through the program).
Thanks for any advice you can provide.
