Built for people who want control without compromises
CountAbout is a good app. I especially like the Projected Register Balance calendar. It helps me plan my budget and is the main reason I chose the app.
I use the web application every day and have for many years. I have banking data in CountAbout that goes back decades. The ability to import my Quicken data was huge.
I’ve been trying to ditch Quicken for years. Finally a worthy replacement — clean, intuitive, and private.
