- SnorkelTan 3y agoIf you have an office 365 subscription microsoft money is a spreadsheet that can connect to your accounts through plaid I believe. Not offline, but also probably not going away.

- localhost 3y agoI haven't used this before, but are there things that you wish you could have used Python to analyze the data in the workbook? I currently use Mint, so need to migrate to something and maybe I could find a way to extend any missing functionality via Python (disclosure: I'm a founding member of the Python in Excel team). Edit: I see that it was shut down too.

- Mister_Snuggles 3y agoI've been using Banktivity[0] for a while and generally like it. Their subscription model is interesting. If you decide to cancel your subscription everything still works, but you don't get access to the connected services. The only thing I don't like is that you need to take a step to cancel the subscription, so if you want the software but don't want the connected services it's a bit of friction. I'd rather pay one price for the software (and I'm fine with doing this for every major version) with a separate subscription for the services set up separately. That said, every piece of personal finance software I've tried has some bit of friction with how I want it to work. [0] https://www.banktivity.com/ https://www.banktivity.com/
