Big user of Empower but very tempted to switch -- anyone who has transferred over can tell me their thoughts?
Hi I'm a long time user of Empower. It does what I need but there are some minor things I would really like such as setting distinct budget/savings goals, etc. I've been eyeing Monarch for a bit along with some other budgeting apps and it seems to do what I want but idk if it's worth migrating my entire financial life over. I've been starting to think about it a lot more with my partner and the Couples shared view is appealing.
Overall Empower does what I need though but I am a bit tempted to switch. I was wondering if anyone else who has moved over can share their thoughts? How seamless was the transition? Was there anything you didn't expect when transferring over? Or do you think looking back, switching wasn't really needed but you still like it. Any limitations you didn't expect?
Any thoughts would be very much appreciated!
