Any good alternatives to Quicken out there?[ Parent ] (none / 0) (#4)
by Anonymous User on Tue Jan 18, 2005 at 09:58:53 AM PDT

Quicken 98 was great.  I used it for years and it did everything I needed it to.  I even continued using it past the end of support when you could no longer reinstall and download patches for it, but instead had to copy it entirely from one HD to another when upgrading your system.

Finally I broke down and gave a new version a try... It's either Quicken 2003 or 2004.  It's less customizeable, does some very annoying things automatically with no ability to disable them, and insists on displaying little ads for various Quicken services they want you to buy.

So... what I'm wondering now is, what alternatives are out there?  Is there a good open source alternative that will import Quicken data files?
