1. iBank (from Igg Software)


Main Benefits. iBank has an impressive interface. We especially like the look and function of the graphs & charts. We also like that you can add notes to almost anything - accounts, portfolios, charts, budgets, statements. iBank also syncs with the iPhone to help you keep an eye on your spending when you're out.


2. Fortora Fresh Finance (from Fortora)


Main Benefits. What's great about Fortora is that each registered copy can be used on up to 3 computers. Very responsive customer service and they are quite receptive to feedback.


3. Moneydance 2010 (from The Infinite Kind)


Main Benefits. Based on the Java operating system, runs on XP, Vista, Mac, Linux.
The program also translates into other languages such as French, Spanish, German.


4. MoneyWell (from No Thirst Software)


Main Benefits. MoneyWell is different in that it is an envelope-based budgeting program and so helps you track your money before spending. Customer service and query response time is excellent. iPhone compatibility to come soon.

Main Benefits. Quicken has lots of money management features. The 2007 version offers investment tracking, bill pay and TurboTax integration.
