![]() ![]() It is enough for some, but not for all, Quicken 2007 users. As its name implies, it is a bare-bones financial management application. Instead, you could think of it as a successor to Quicken 2007, but one that lacks some of Quicken 2007’s features. It is not really an update for Quicken 2007 users. Quicken Essentials for Mac was released in 2010. A few of my clients who used only the account registers and reporting features in Quicken were able to use Quicken Essentials. One colleague switched to iBank but due to differences in how iBank handles investment accounts, he spent many hours cleaning up his Quicken data after it was imported into iBank and needed assistance repeatedly from iBank’s tech support staff. When Lion was released in July 2011, Tidbits had an article talking about finding a replacement for Quicken. Banktivity (formerly iBank) and Quicken Essentials are two applications that users could consider as a replacement, but an update to Quicken 2007 simplifies the entire situation. Those clients use Quicken 2007 and migrating to another application is not a simple task. This news is a big relief to a number of my clients who have intentionally held off on updating to Lion. ![]() Intuit recently announced that it plans to release an update to Quicken 2007 that will make it compatible with Mac OS X 10.7, aka Lion.
