JUST ENOUGH NOT TO SWITCH TO A WINDOWS PRODUCT
I ordered this because i wanted to stick with mac "everything" it's just okay, im going to keep it, but compared to ms money, it's not even in the ball park. Needs work. It's to 'quacky. although I think there on the right track. you have to use it for a week or so to get the hang of setting up, entering debits/credits. I hope they have an upgrade soon. i'm using ver 3 the latest version as of 7/31/2008. this program should be at least 15.00 dollars cheaper. try it for 30 days free before you buy it. if you had ms money and think this is even close forget it.

Doesn't live up
iBank doesn't live up to it's claims. The search engine, doesn't work. It can't automatically download from your banks as it claims. Do yourself a favor and pass on this one. It was an expensive lesson for me.

Not ready for prime time
I bought IBank thinking it might be an alternative to Quicken, which I've used since 1992. I'm not hugely unhappy with Quicken, but Intuit obviously doesn't give a crap about Mac users so it seemed like a good idea to find an alternative. However, this isn't it. Maybe if you were starting from scratch, the program might feel more friendly, but after waiting through an 8 HOUR DOWNLOAD of my .QIF file from Quicken only to find all my investment data (almost 20 years worth) must at BEST be checked and at worst reentered, I've given up. IBank 2 doesn't allow anything but dividends on an investment-- no capital gains (long or short) so for tax purposes it's worthless. And you can't automatically reinvest dividends-- you have to enter them as a cash deposit and then add another transaction for the reinvestment. More work that Quicken handles as a no-brainer. As a result, I'm facing the prospect going back through 20 years of transactions to reinvest all the dividends that IBank added to my investment accounts as simple cash deposits. No way. Sorry, IBank. I give 3 stars for effort, for what appears to be an attractive interface, and because I know loading many years of data is more of a challenge than starting fresh, but I can't deal with the transition problems.
I've visited the IBank help site and I know some of these problems are supposedly being dealt with in IBank 3, but it's too new-- and sounds like it's still in beta. Guess I'll slog along with Quicken another year.

Pretty good
I recently switched from a PC to a Mac and was debating which financial software to get. I have never used Quicken, so I tried iBank. Over all it is easy to use and import information. However, when I use it for extended periods it tends to crash. It has been easy to use and figure out, but slightly frustrating with the instability and that there is no way to refresh the selections when reconciling statements.
