Gnucash and banks[ Parent | Reply to This ] (none / 0) (#22)

I wonder what it would take the major banks to get involved with development of gnucash. Banks should realize that Intuit isn't their friend. They could do themselves a big favor by working on developing gnucash, including a windows version, and free themselves of Intuit. For the record, I use Quicken 2001 and because I don't use online banking I have no plans to upgrade. From what I've read about 2005, there isn't a compelling reason to switch.

I don't think that banks will care enough to support GnuCash. Like Intuit, they're goal is to make money, not to make banking convenient for small, individual customers. I wouldn't be optimistic about help from the banks.

I'm a freelance Notary Public in addition to being a programmer, and one of the things I do as a Notary is that on occasion I get orders from banks and mortgage companies to go out to a customer's home or office to witness them signing the paperwork. (Certain documents in a loan transaction must be notarized, which requires it be done in the presence of the Notary.) One of the companies that is offering home loans is Quicken Loans. Now I'm not sure if they are simply a mortgage company or they are a bank, but it means Quicken is a competitor of the banks that use its on-line service. And in view of how fairly easy it is for a bank to set up its own on-line service (based on the number that are doing it, and on it apparently not being all that difficult to design a web site to allow on-line banking), tying in with Quicken is on the order of competitors to Microsoft allowing it to dictate terms for them, the result being eventually your competitor will eat you alive.

I think financial institutions need to have serious considerations about how Quicken/Intuit runs its business, before they run them out of it.
