Moving from Quicken Classic (Mac) to WalletHub
Assembled from both records. Nothing here is an opinion — it is the difference between two rows, written out.
Your data — read this first
Quicken Classic (Mac) records transaction export as Yes, so take the export first. WalletHub imports transaction history, so what you exported comes with you.
- Transactions
- Yes
- Balance history
- ?
- Budgets
- Rebuilt by hand
- Rules
- Rebuilt by hand
- Attachments
- ?
Transactions, balance history and attachments are WalletHub’s own import attributes. Budgets and rules never transfer between two apps in this index.
What you gain
- Free tier No → Yes
- Goal tracking No → Yes
- Credit scores No → Yes
- Partner or household No → Yes
What you lose
- Nothing recorded
What is unchanged
- Account aggregation, History import, Budgeting, Recurring transactions, Bills, Net worth, Investment tracking, Reports, Trends, Customizable dashboard
50 attributes are Unknown on one side and left out. Gains and losses are a diff of the two records.
How to do it
- Export from Quicken Classic (Mac) first
Take the transaction export while your subscription is live. The record says export is available.
- Import before you connect anything
Import the file first. Connecting banks first creates duplicates that then have to be merged one by one.
- Connect accounts
Find out which of your banks fail before you are billed. WalletHub reaches banks through an unrecorded connector.
- Rebuild budgets and rules
No app in this index imports another’s budgets or rules. Budgets are quick; rules are worth rebuilding as transactions arrive rather than all at once.
