I used to use Quicken long ago but have been using Moneydance for many years to manage my personal finances. But Moneydance is propietary software and I prefer FOSS now. What’s your preferred finance management software?
Thing I need it to do:
- manage different accounts (common types are banks, credit cards, loans, assets)
- have basic reporting (e.g., categorized expenses per time period)
- preferably uses tags
- export or copy reports or data - could be excel or csv or something that can be pasted or imported into spreadsheets
- self-hostable with a web app
I’m not a fan of software that’s budget-focused. I don’t mind it having some budgeting functionality, but I don’t want opinionated software to force me to manage my money a certain way. I just want felxible software to help me manage my software how I want to manage it.
I’m wary of source-available/freemium/dual-licensed/open-core licenses. It can’t hurt to suggest such apps if you like them and I’ll take a look, but I think it’s not likely that I’ll buy into that philosophy.
So what software do you use and like?
Actual has been awesome so far.
