I have used both and Mint and Quicken Online. Before that I've used Microsoft Money. Mint falls short in actually tracking transactions that have not cleared yet. Mint has budgeting tools that allow for best guesses at where and how you spend your money and yet provides no way to track recurring monthly or even yearly expenses. It's insulting to infer that this is an adequate solution for everyone. Try having a car loan or owning a house. Sure, I get up to the minute notifications of where my balances are at today, but that's not much better than checking my account balances from my individual banking websites myself. If you need a more accurate depiction of your financial future, you will have to purchase something such as Quicken 2010. Don't get me wrong. Mint is a great tool but, it certainly is not a one shoe fits all.
