[Mac OS X] CheckBook - the ultimate finance management software!

When it comes to finance management, many people prefer it the old method of writing the finance entries in diaries or specific books as they find it pretty handy and safe to do so. However in this digital age, where computer games are one of the first games kids play with, can we expect them to maintain their financial records on the same old books? I guess not! In fact, I want to keep my own financial records on the computer because I believe that it’s more safe and easy to maintain too.

There are many software available on windows when it comes to personal finance management and Microsoft Money is one of the most respected software in that field. However, when it comes to OS X I guess the software that I’m reviewing right now has to be one of the easiest and best software ever for personal finance management.

CheckBook allows you to add multiple accounts and gives a very simple to use interface that anyone who isn’t good with accounting can use the software without any problem. Although, I’ve studied some accounting but still I know that I know nothing about it. I was able to create the entries and it showed me various reports and thus helped me know that where and how my money is flowing. It even let you mark the entries (deposits) as taxable or not.

There are other personal finance management software available and none of them has looked so impressive. I’ll continue reviewing other software in this field and will post in case I find anything better than CheckBook, however till this time I’m going to keep my finances with this software only.
