I have heard BAD things about Quicken 2013—buggy.
Anyone here tried GnuCash?
Can you download from US Banks?
It looks like it is setup for Euro bank data interchange.
Thanks, Dopers!

I switched to GnuCash from Quicken this year. I am trying to simplify my financial life such that all-manual entry will not be too much of a burden, and a good thing, too, because it looks like you need at least an associates degree in computer programming to enable downloads.
I use GNU cash. I found it a bit unintuitive to set up initially. It also has a few quirks which I’ve managed to get used to. Overall it works.
It can import data from a variety of formats including Quicken QIF files which is one of the data formats my bank can export.
I don’t use GnuCash, but I do use Quicken 2013. I wasn’t aware that it was buggy.
It isn’t popular to say about open source, but stay away from Gnucash. It is a huge investment to learn it if you aren’t familiar with basic accounting aspects, which would make it very powerful - if it worked. It is very, very buggy, and randomly makes errors that don’t seem trackable. As an example, I’ve put a lot of effort entering in various accounts, assets and liabilities, and now the totals show imaginary numbers that are not listed in any of the subaccounts. While it would be great if I actually had the $34 million it says I do, I certainly entered nothing of the kind. Oriignally I thought user error, but the assets are nowhere in any account, just show in the total. Makes me wonder what errors I haven’t detected. Sadly, a substandard product.
