iBank or Quicken for Mac?

I downloaded iBank a few months ago and stopped using it because I couldn't get used to it--and I went back to Quicken 2007 for Mac. Has anyone here gotten used to iBank, or were your experiences similar to mine?

Thanks,

Jean in VA

I didn't even bother. My bank is very backward thinking and only just made transactions available for download to Quicken or Quickbooks available this year. If I told them I used iBank and that doesn't use standardized QIF transaction files, they'd tell me I was on my own.

Could you be mistaken about iBank and qif files? I am using iBank 3 and have had no problem importing qif or ofx files that I have downloaded from my Banks. I also believe that iBank has a function wherein it can get the data itself, but I have not used it that way, as I prefer to download descrete files.

I've been a Moneydance user for a long time, but decided to try iBank - because I can use it (sync) with my iPhone.

Like you could not get used to the interface and had a few quirks I just could not live with.

Moneydance interface is a little dated, but everything works great with it, just wish they would bring a version out for the iphone

I found some obvious quality control issues with iBank. Considering the high price they are asking, I expected better. I got a refund. Shortly thereafter I bought Quicken 2009 for Windows.
