DANIO As a past user (and owner) of iBank I was hopeful that version 3 would be an answer to all the issues I personally had with it. Sadly, having participated in the Beta for the product it became clear that wasn't going to be the case. I decided to look at alternatives and found Moneydance, at that point at '2007' version. Very quickly I decided Moneydance had what I wanted, despite my initial reservation with Java applications - powerful account tracking, simplicity, dependability and a no-frills approach to money management. Since using Moneydance for the first time it hasn't stalled, crashed or lost any data, an improvement over iBank (in my experience). Data entry is easy, especially with the new entry system deployed in version 2008; which also includes a full 'undo' feature. Allocation of funds against any number of categories to help drill down and find just exactly where all that money disappears each month. This category information can then be accessed through the clever new expenses/income graph on the Home Screen; this for me is a killer feature, I use every day! If you are looking for simplistic yet powerful software which allows you to control your finances day to day Moneydance is for you! (Version 2008) |
