The wife and I would like to start keeping track of our personal finances on my hackintosh. Can anyone recommend some good personal finance software for OSX? I'm playing with the iBank demo now but could use some AT wisdom here.

Stay far, far, far away from Quicken Mac 2007. "Quicken Financial Life For Mac" was supposed to be out this past summer but they've apparently been asking for beta testers for 9 months now or so. I don't have high expectations but it MIGHT deliver.

I use Cha-Ching, but it leaves quite a bit to be desired from time to time. It's pretty much just a ledger with some advanced features, but the newer version is supposed to give more flare. (Haven't really checked it out since beta 4.)

I had a similar topic about 3 or 4 months ago and the consensus seemed to be that there isn't really a quality finance app for mac. All of my research shows threads boiling down to where people will set up parallels and have a Windows partition so they can run MS Money rather than use anything available for the Apple platform.

If you find iBank to be at least satisfactory, then you aren't going to do much better. You could try getting the beta of QFLFM and seeing if it is what you need but I wouldn't hold your breath.



edit: Also worth mentioning is that Quicken Online is now free. I have no experience with it, but it may be worth checking out.

We have our budget set up in a Google Spreadsheet.. works great for us and it's accessible from anywhere.
It's not as pretty as personal finance software but it gets the job done with not much effort.
