Never mind that 2015 is still months away the US$74.99 rebuilt flagship app delivers some key functionality, including synchronized iOS and Android mobile apps that allow you to take receipt photos on the go detailed investment tracking that can support tax reporting requirements and a revived, Mint-y fresh user interface that makes it easy to see where your money is going. Intuit is now aiming to turn those Mac personal finance users back into Quicken loyalists with the shiny, mobile-savvy release of Quicken 2015 for Mac.
INTUIT QUICKEN FOR MAC FOR MAC
Still, the anxiety around Quicken for Mac created opportunity for competing apps to haul in some market share, including the capable iBank (now at v5, including bill pay and other marquee Quicken features plus QIF data import).
To Intuit's credit, the wailing and gnashing of teeth of customers was heard and acknowledged in March 2012 it released a Lion-compatible version of Quicken 2007 which remains on sale today. Many unsuspecting Quickenians upgraded their Intel Macs from 10.6 Snow Leopard to 10.7 Lion without fully realizing that Apple's move to drop Rosetta support from the Mac's OS meant that Quicken 2007 would never launch again. The product froze in amber with the Quicken 2007 release, which remained on its legacy PowerPC code base well past the best-if-used-by date while Quicken Essentials, released in 2010 with input from the team, delivered a shiny new money management experience, it also lacked many Q2007 features (integrated bill payments, investment management) that users counted on.
Loyal users of Quicken for Mac, Intuit's flagship personal finance manager, have not had the easiest road over the past few years.
