Frankly this seem like a big deal when I first started using GnuCash after using Quicken for many years. But after a while it doesn't bother me that much. The process also is not entirely manual. The banks export their transactions in certain formats and looks like GnuCash supports all of them.

So really the difference is between having Qucken log in to my bank directly vs me logging in and just downloading a file with transactions.
