Best OS X Personal Finance for small business?

[scott9s]

So, I've been an MS Money user since 1999. Wow, time flies. the past year, I've been using vm's/bootcamp to run windows. MS just decided to cut MS Money from the product portfolio, and now looks like the best time to migrate to an OS X solution. What do you all recommend?

I've scoured the other posts. Here's a smattering of recommendations:

• http://nothirst.com/moneywell/
• http://www.iggsoftware.com/ibank/
• http://www.lyricapps.com/iCompta/
• http://www.midnightapps.com/chaching/
• http://www.fadingred.com/cashbox/
• Quicken Financial Life for Mac (summer 2009)
• GnuCash
• Web Solution such as wesabe.com, mint.com, mvelopes.com, rudder.com, yodlee.com
• Many other choices, but these top ones were the most common ones I saw in the forums.

One of my thoughts, is Quicken and MS Money are supposed to be collaborating to help east the transition, but I've been debating whether its just time to make a clean break and start fresh.

So, What do you think is the best Personal Finance / Small Business Software for OS X?

With the exception of Gnucash I'd say none of these are Small Business software. They are PFM's.

It appears I will have to try ibank since that is what the poll states.

@mongrol, yeah, I'm looking for both, but ideally would like one that works on a small business side.

I highly recommend iBank software from IGG. I recently switched to it from windows based Quicken 2005. It is both easy to use, and looks like a native mac application. It seems like it would also work for a small business... If you incorporate iBank with iBiz (also from IGG software) you'll have the perfect setup for finance management as well as job management/time tracking and billing.
