What about downloading CSVs from your bank?

Importing a bank CSV into Excel is a pain. You need to manually log into your bank account, export the CSV files, import the CSV file into Excel, and clean and format your data before you can even use it.

You’ll need to do this account by account, month after month, over and over again.

And without AutoCat, you’ll still need to manually categorize your transactions every month. You also won’t be able to draw on the resources of another community dedicated to personal finance in a spreadsheet like Tiller.
