This title doesn't have all of the advanced features that pretty much all the others do. WxBanker is definitely a lightweight app, but in a good way. After all, “That's the reason why HomeBank is what it is today.” Hopefully the team sees this article and transitions to a single-window, tabbed UI design at some point in the future. The good news is that the HomeBank crew is open to suggestions and frequently implements them. Not a big deal if you have simple finances, but this can become a window management nightmare if you need to make changes to several accounts at once. One minor irritation that I encountered with the interface was that it opens a second window for account transaction details. In either scenario, HomeBank just feels right for the job.
Some of the more robust apps feel like overkill for simple financial needs, while some of the more lightweight applications just wouldn't be appropriate for more complex environments. This application can go from simply keeping track of the standard checking and savings accounts to figuring out how much your car really costs you, while tracking multiple types of accounts.
Scalability is another big plus that HomeBank brings to the table. While HomeBank doesn't have the wizards that I like to see, its documentation is complete and goes step-by-step through the various operations needed to set up your financial records. If you're a fan of charts and graphs, this app is for you. Being able to see where your money has gone and where it is likely to go in the future is probably the biggest draw that HomeBank features.
HomeBank is a great app if you like analysis.
