So users either used Quicken for Windows in Parallels Desktop, or quit Quicken in favor of iBank or even easier-to-use online services like Mint (which I’m a fan of, despite it now being owned by Intuit). While Intuit did release Quicken Essentials 2010 for Mac, it had a very stripped down feature set, and everyone hated it. Still, it was Quicken, the name brand of personal finance software. It’s long been a second-class citizen compared with its Windows versions, with longstanding complaints of bugs, slow updates, poor support, and file format incompatibilities. Frankly, I thought Quicken for Mac had been abandoned by Intuit.
