Year-end wrap-up

Monday, December 7th, 2009

If we’ve been a little quieter than usual here, it’s probably because that past few months have been more about polish than big announcements. Once iBank Mobile hit the streets and we made it through the release of Snow Leopard, we spent the fall making minor improvements to the iPhone app (the next update will include French localization) and some updates to iBank and iBiz largely centered around bug fixes.

One of the areas where we’ve made great headway is in resolving issues in iBank data import. Most users have been successful in transferring their Quicken data since the early days of iBank 3. Occasionally someone with really complex accounts, or many, many accounts, or decades of transactions presents us with a serious challenge. But every time we untangle one of those knots, it makes the process even smoother for everyday users. This became even more critical early in the year when Microsoft announced it was throwing in the towel on MS Money. Many more Money users than ever came looking a new finance solution in iBank, and we’re happy with the way their data is porting as well.

All in all we’ve had a great year at IGG. Even with many new voices in the mix, we still welcome your comments. iBank is your software as much as it is ours, so let us hear where you want it to go next.

Thanks,
James
