Quicken for Mac - any good

I would like to hear opinions for the Quicken app. for Mac. It's tax time and my Quicken on my pc does not work due to old Windows version. My Mac is the 2017 model And the Quicken app for Mac is the "Quicken Organize Your Money - starter (I don't need the investment, transactions model - just basic stuff). Thank you in advance

MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 12.3

I have looked at other check-writing and similar packages over the years. None have stood up as well as Quicken because of its being built on a database.


This time of year, I run several reports used as a starting place for tax preparation, including these:

all items tagged "medical"

all items tagged "charitable"

all items last year tagged "Tax-related"


This feature alone is the most compelling reason I still use Quicken (albeit the old version)


None of the other packages I looked at (at the time) were able to generate similar reports.

Quicken for Mac is very good. I have been using it for a few years and am happy with it. Do note, however, that there are still some differences between the Win & Mac versions of Quicken. Win still has some features that are not in the Mac product. But Quicken for Mac has most definitely overcome the disaster it was about 10 years ago.


FWIW, I use Quicken Deluxe. Quicken Starter may be ok for you but I cannot comment on its features since I don't use that version.
