Mac vs Windows reporting

Question

Good afternoon

I’ve been using Quicken for over 20 years mostly on Windows. A couple of years ago I converted to a Mac and have been using Parellels to run Quicken 2014.

I have tried a previous Mac version, and found the reporting functionality lacking, and my reason for sticking with the Windows version.

A couple of questions, 
Does this version give equal reporting functionality to the Mac version?

If so, when upgrading, do your existing reports get converted?

If not, what are the plans and timeframe on making the report functions the same on both Operating Systems?

I’d really like to eliminate using Parrelles, and use the Mac version but feel I can’t/won’t until I can generate the same Windows reports using the Mac version.

Thanks for any info....   Steve

Nope. But it is definitely better than if you tried a version of Quicken Mac a few years ago. They have built a new reports engine, and have been releasing additional functionality for reports every few months. It's still a work in progress.

As with most things in evaluating Quicken, only you can determine if the current product meets your needs or not. Here's the good thing: if you have a current subscription version of Quicken Windows, you can download the current Mac version at no additional cost and try it yourself.

No.

They never talk about timeframe for future features because of uncertainty how long it will take to implement a particular feature, bugs that may surface in testing, or other problems that need urgent attention and divert time away from planned work. I think if you could ask the developers and have them answer honestly, they would tell you they expected to be further along by now. the good news part of this is that they're continuing to make progress; the bad news, of course, is that it's slower progress than anyone wants.
