If you decide to go that route, I would recommend setting up a test file and exploring how you want to set things up, how to set up your business, create and get paid on a few test invoices.and when you feel completely comfortable with the product create a NEW data file and get to work.Īlso, in my opinion (and I own BOTH products), Quicken Windows is a good to very good product, albeit complicated and convoluted at times. You could instead purchase CrossOver.which will run Quicken Windows without needing to install any Windows operating system.īe warned however, whichever system you choose there is a very steep learning curve for either Quicken Windows or Quicken Mac. Parallels and Fusion are paid subscription products. They all require you purchase a Windows operating license in order to download the version of Windows you want to install. If you need to create invoices for your customers however, you'll need to use the Windows version with a virtual machine on your Mac, such as Parallels, VMWare Fusion or Virtual Box. And neither the Windows or Mac version does payroll.and neither really supports anything but a sole proprietorship type of business.Ĭould you make the Mac version work? Sure. There is NO invoicing module for the Mac version, so you can't do any billing there. You can enter your business transactions and customize reports to only include your business transactions, if you need.īut don't be fooled. Quicken Mac has NO business features, but can be customized to add business categories along with business tax line items (Schedule C). So it can be done.īut only for accounting and checkwriting. I used Quicken with my business way before there ever was a Home and Business version.
