Not a long review yet, but I just purchased SEE Finance after using their unlimited free trial for about 3 weeks (which is an endorsement in and of itself.)
I didn't buy SEE because of how nearly flawlessly it can import Quicken data because I didn't have Quicken data to import, but I've read the reviews of others who love this feature.
I bought SEE because it does everything I need it to do in the most intuitive way, much in the way I would have approached it if I was writing the software. My career (I'm now retired) was in IT starting as a programmer many years ago. If the software was not "intuitively obvious to the most casual observer" in the days I was programming, then we missed the mark.
I like everything about SEE so far, including tracking my Mother's finances in a separate instance. I also like the basis of recording my transactions as a "one-time" event or setting them up as recurring events. I like the graphing, the image file capability, the manual or automatic settings on features, the color coding, the layout choices of all accounts and more. I have yet to set up my retirement investment accounts and my annuities, but I'm doing that at the beginning of 2012 (any day now after I move!)
So I give SEE Finance high marks so far, and I'll report back with any suggestions for improvement. I would like to add that I agree with those who want the full automatic upgrade support that comes with selling this app of the Mac App Store, but I hope that is coming soon.
