Pretty Good Financial Software - and the price was right!

I had to replace the DOS-based financial software (Managing Your Money) I had used since 1993 when I corrupted the database through some careless saving of data from 2 separate instances open at the same time. So I bought Microsoft money purely because it was cheap, and had moderately good reviews. My experience has been generally good, especially with the automatic updating feature, which allows me to track my credit card spending in close to real time. It's missing some feature I liked in MYM (auto-budgeting, and a very useful review screen with actual vs. budget vs prior year by month). In fact, it's one big weakness is that there is not a simple one-step way of looking at revenue and spending categories by month in one place (that I have found), which is how I track the family finances and flag unusual or excessive or missing items. But I'd definitely buy it again - it works as well as Quicken, and at $10.99, how can you miss?

Money is as Money does

OK, I've tried them both, and for me, Money is the hands down winner over Quicken.

I've been using Money since 2000. I'm also a Mac user, and bought Quicken for the Mac. It would have been great if Money ran on the Mac too. Although Quicken is my only option for the Mac, it's shelfware at my place. Just don't use it.

It's all the the design. When software developers tout their software, they talk about ease of use, intuitive, flexible, powerful. And with a product like Money, you get what they mean - especially if you run it alongside another product that's designed to do exactly the same thing.

It's not that it acts like it knows what you want to do next, but the navigation built into it means you smoothly move from one task or view to another, without needing to think about how to do it. That's design.

I'm putting Windows on my new Intel Mac - just so that I can run Money on it. It's that good.

It's clean, simple to use, but don't let that understate the sheer functionality of it. If you want to manage your money, this is the way to do it.
