Quicken v Quickbboks for personal finance / Investment Tracking

Has anybody switched to Quickbooks solely for personal finance management? My Quicken qdf file has gotten very large (200MB) and I've had data problems (corruption) I tried to archive old transactions but the File won't copy or save due to errors that Q support could no help me resolve. Thinking of converting to Quickbooks but I am just an individual investor, no business activities.

Quicken v Quickbboks for personal finance / Investment Tracking

I appreciate your interest in QuickBooks, MT-RioV. I'm here to assist you with managing your personal finances accordingly.

 

Great news! QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT) lets you handle your personal and business finances. This software is full-featured business and financial management, user-friendly, and lets you organize your financial information, eliminating manual data entry. 

 

You may access this link to know more about QBDT plans and pricing: Select the right product for you. The same material will allow you to explore the other QuickBooks platforms that will cater to your needs. From there, simply click on the Products dropdown menu for further details.

 

If you're ready to move your Quicken data to QBDT, use this link as your reference: Convert Quicken data to QuickBooks Desktop.

 

On the other hand, you may consider subscribing to Mint if you solely want to manage your personal finances only. Intuit Mint is a personal finance manager and bill tracker that helps you track expenses, transactions, monthly budgets, account balances, subscriptions, expenses, and taxes.

Furthermore, if you had a self-employed business, you can consider utilizing our QuickBooks Self-Employed (QBSE) plans for independent contractors and freelancers.

 

If you have follow-up questions while managing your finances, please notify me by leaving a comment below. I'm just a few clicks away to help you once more. Have a good one!

Can you run the backup or copy file feature? i.e Copy your account and transaction data for a specific data range?
