Doesn't live up
iBank doesn't live up to it's claims. The search engine, doesn't work. It can't automatically download from your banks as it claims. Do yourself a favor and pass on this one. It was an expensive lesson for me. |  | Reviewed on 2008-05-26
Not ready for prime time
I bought IBank thinking it might be an alternative to Quicken, which I've used since 1992. I'm not hugely unhappy with Quicken, but Intuit obviously doesn't give a crap about Mac users so it seemed like a good idea to find an alternative. However, this isn't it. Maybe if you were starting from scratch, the program might feel more friendly, but after waiting through an 8 HOUR DOWNLOAD of my .QIF file from Quicken only to find all my investment data (almost 20 years worth) must at BEST be checked and at worst reentered, I've given up. IBank 2 doesn't allow anything but dividends on an investment-- no capital gains (long or short) so for tax purposes it's worthless. And you can't automatically reinvest dividends-- you have to enter them as a cash deposit and then add another transaction for the reinvestment. More work that Quicken handles as a no-brainer. As a result, I'm facing the prospect going back through 20 years of transactions to reinvest all the dividends that IBank added to my investment accounts as simple cash deposits. No way. Sorry, IBank. I give 3 stars for effort, for what appears to be an attractive interface, and because I know loading many years of data is more of a challenge than starting fresh, but I can't deal with the transition problems.
I've visited the IBank help site and I know some of these problems are supposedly being dealt with in IBank 3, but it's too new-- and sounds like it's still in beta. Guess I'll slog along with Quicken another year. | | Reviewed on 2008-05-18
Pretty good
I recently switched from a PC to a Mac and was debating which financial software to get. I have never used Quicken, so I tried iBank. Over all it is easy to use and import information. However, when I use it for extended periods it tends to crash. It has been easy to use and figure out, but slightly frustrating with the instability and that there is no way to refresh the selections when reconciling statements. | | Reviewed on 2008-05-03
Works great with a few small issues
I've been using this software for several months now. The recent upgrade to iBank 3 was a huge improvement. This has worked MUCH better than Quicken for Mac. My only complaint is that it is cumbersome to have to download statements from banks and import them. Many banks support direct imports but some of my banks do not. The banks refuse to work with anyone besides Quicken or Money. Other than that, this has been a great tool and works very well. I would highly recommend it over Quicken. | | Reviewed on 2008-04-22
Great for Mac users
Great product for mac users. I am a first time mac user (have a 2007 macbook) and selected this based on other reviews to replace my Microsoft Money. I had used Quicken in past and preferred Money's structure. This is very similar and great for those of us who just want to keep track of our checking/savings accounts and who don't have huge portfolios of investments to monitor. | |
