I was able to transfer all of the banking and credit card accounts with relatively few issues. I next tried to export/import the accounts one by one, each account in a separate QIF file. That attempt failed miserably: I got too many import errors in KMM. I first tried to transfer Quicken data in one shot as a single QIF file. I spent a couple of days playing with KMyMoney. Have all my investments setup properly to show the correct ACB but it isn't actually that important since I do have a spreadsheet for that (after a lot of questions on FWF, thanks!).
#MONEYDANCE VS QUICKEN PLUS#
Bill reminders and auto entry of bills is a plus also. Money wins! It's basically a glorified spreadsheet but comes with a lot of canned reports that can be customized and gives me double entry that is difficult in Excel. Luckily Money allows this even after being sunset for 8 years.
#MONEYDANCE VS QUICKEN MANUAL#
I already considered downloading ofx files and importing them to be a manual entry. From what I can tell Web Connect is considered online functionality by Quicken so in 3 years that will also be disabled.
#MONEYDANCE VS QUICKEN DOWNLOAD#
If you download ofx files and import them manually that is considered Web Connect.
Another thing I noticed is that when Quicken can automatically download transactions from your bank it's called Express Web Connect. I then decided to go back and finish reconciling the remainder of accounts but gave up after I realized I deleted too many incorrect double transactions and would have to import the accounts again.Īt that point Money wins and I'm not going to try and like Quicken anymore lol. Clicked enter on the February reminder and again flashing/flikering for another 10-15 seconds before it was done.
I clicked enter on the first and the Quicken screen flashed randomly for the next 10-15 seconds before the payment was entered and the application settled. Then I went into the bill section and could see two overdue payments for the mortgage. Here it allowed me to select January 1, 2017. Then comes the screen to configure the payment reminder, which asks again what is the next payment date. So I setup the mortgage from scratch again and tried to enter the next payment due as January 1 which it did not allow because it was in the past. I tried to setup the mortgage with a special payee that would automatically adjust the principle/interest per payment but it didn't work. Quicken entered these as straight principle payments and didn't calculate any interest. Then went to my bank account and entered in transaction to pay the mortgage for January and February. I entered the mortgage with the Janubalance. During my cleaning of duplicates I failed to notice this and ended up deleting transactions that were transfers and messed up the account on the other side. Later when I imported the other account it wouldn't match the transactions and hence I ended up with duplicates. Quicken would detect this in one account and make it a transfer to the relevant account. After I realized it was because transactions from one account often translated to a transfer to another account. At first I didn't know why and just deleted the duplicates. Importing transactions created duplicates. Screen render noticeably slower and there is lag clicking between accounts. First thing I noticed is that Quicken is so much slower than Money. Relatively painless as I am an experienced Microsoft Money user. I created all relevant accounts in Microsoft Money first and imported all my transactions. For some reason I really wanted to like Quicken which started this experiment. I wanted to start tracking my finances more closely so decided to start with 2017. In the past I have used Microsoft Money (15-20 years worth of data), although I haven't used anything to track my finances for a few years. I spent the last week entering in all my information from Januonwards in both Quicken and Microsoft Money Sunset.
