Hi All. I'm looking for the few best personal finance applications that will help me keep track of banking, credit cards, etc. Seems like this would be a popular thing to do on a Mac, but none of the apps seem perfect. I couldn't find a lot on this subject when I searched, so now I'm asking you. Thanks in advance for your help!

I use Quicken 2004. Not the prettiest app out there, but it does the job. I tried to import my data into iBank, but its import functionality is extremely limited - it can't import categories, nor can it import multiple accounts. I could import each account separately, but I really don't want to lose my category information, so can't even give iBank a try.

I vote for Checkbook. Just changed over from Quicken and it imports all my Quicken files perfectly. Great response from techsupport when I've had questions and suggestions incorporated very quickly.

Get Virtual PC and either MS Money or Quicken Deluxe for Windows. Mac apps in this category stink. I have been using Quicken 2004. It does what I want to, but not in the best way. The interface is much more clean in the windows apps and there are tons more features over there. As soon as Virtual PC is G5 compatible, I'm going to switch to Quicken Deluxe for Windows.
