I have tried Mint, Personal Capital, GNUCash, and probably a few others, and I seem to have settled on Tiller. Basically, I like the convenience of automatically pulling in transactions and balances, but I like retaining control of the budgeting process.

I know there are a ton of others out there, so let’s post our favorites and a short explanation of what makes them great.

    I just use Excel, but I also don’t track my spending at a very detailed level. I have a budget for the month, and I sort of adjust my spending as I go to make sure I meet that budget.

      I’m with you, the spreadsheet keeps track of how the month should go. I do use an app called MoneyWiz to track everything manually so I can see certain categories that aren’t super consistent (groceries/gas).
