  • What's Better than Mint and Yodlee?

    Neither Mint nor Yodlee can properly sync with my ING account. Mint has a beautiful layout and I'm really depressed that it doesn't work with ING--it never succeeds with validating the account.

    Quicken online has no problem with ING but it's going to go to 2.99 a month in December (the online version being free was a trick, it's a "beta test" and then they make you pay for it, which was undisclosed when I signed up).

    I need something online because I use multiple computers.

    So...any suggestions?

    Update: I tried Geezeo and it also does not support ING Direct.

    I have no idea if these services are any good and/or if any of them will do what you want or not but here are some others you could try:

      Mint syncs fine with my ING accounts (all 7 of them).

        I got it to work with my ING account also after some tweaking. I like it, but there are two things that Mint doesn't do that I absolutely need.

        1. Bill due date & amount tracking.
        2. Manual entry of transactions.

        How am I supposed to know how much is in my bank account if I can't manually enter anything? I have to wait for Mint to update the next day to see a real balance. That's deficient.

          I thought mint did bill due date and amount.

          Also, if quicken has been working so well for you, have you considered just paying the $2.99 a month?

          Although personally I would also be unhappy about that, putting it in perspective it is 2 less sodas from a vending machine or eating out one less time a year for a program that you are comfortable with tracking your money on.

            Anybody have any insight on keeping track of bill due dates and amounts in Mint?

              I like Quicken for tracking my bank accounts. I was able to register all of the accounts with them. But there are other aspects that I don't like about Quicken, for example, transactions for purchases cannot be split up into categories like for Yodlee. Yodlee was not able to verify all of my bank accounts, but I prefer its' other features over Quicken. Provident Online and Shore Bank didn't validate with Yodlee. So I guess I can use Quicken to view all of my bank statements and Yodlee to do the spending transactions/budgeting portions of my personal finance.

                I love Mint because they just rolled out some nice new features that you should take a look at and it is a free service, you can't go wrong.
