I've researched enough to know I was lucky to not move to Quicken Express as was once advised. The support person couldn't figure out how I could utlize the backup data so in the end, I re-entered the previous year so that I could get my taxes done and search for another program. The call ended with an all too familiar bottom line which was that the backups were all bad so they didn't help. (This has been a common tech support comment for me) I've only tried to use Quicken for personal finance tracking, no securities tracking and the heavier features (thank goodness). Last year, I was told by Quicken support during a call I paid for that I had too many accounts and the database was too large. I counted 13 different sets of Quicken datasets which have been left hanging on my various hard drives over these years as I found out through different support calls that I would have to discard a corrupted database and start over. I have struggled with Quicken (currently Q07) for many, many years (back into the 90's).

I'm still using Quicken Home & Business on an aging pc (sigh, just upgraded to Quicken H&B 2012) because there is nothing even remotely comparable to it on Macs. reports are very basic with very limited customization. tax category support is useless to nearly non-existent. there seems to be more emphasis on having a pretty UI than on capabilities. Even though they are the best of the lot, they still have a long way to go to be truly useful. Last month I installed iBank and Moneydance on my Mac to evaluate the current versions of each. But if you want to do meaningful recordkeeping and reporting, print checks, tax categorization, etc. If all you want to do is keep a transaction register, almost any of the apps will suffice.

That said, you might start by checking out Mac Personal Finance Software Reviews everyone wants it, but no one can find it. So far, good financial software for Macs is like the holy grail.
