Customer Rating:      Summary: Your Tax guy will love you and you will love your pockets! Comment: The best easy to use. My tax guy says you have everything you need to save you the most money. The "q" don't work good. I have tried 3 versions of "q" it never works good.
Be smart! It's saves money and time! It's also will help you with your future.
Customer Rating:      Summary: I agree - the Invoice designer is LAME! Comment: I've used Money since the early days. Whereas Money is probably every bit as good as Quicken (plenty of discontent in that camp too) and it works fine for most tasks, as business software the invoice component is critical. Trying to edit or design an invoice is just plain frustrating and extremely limited, rendering it almost useless. Trying to add a discount is rediculous as well with half the discount information refusing to show. Most adverts can be disabled but I do still get "reminders" from MS about new products which I would prefer to turn off.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Don't Buy if you have a large monitor Comment: No adjustment of font size and text is too small to read on my 22" Monitor
Customer Rating:      Summary: Better than Quicken Comment: I think that this one was better than the Quicken equivalent I was using but the automatic updates are no better. I have had to fix accounts about every other time I update. It seems to be working ok now but the updates stil take about as long as it takes for me to login to all my accounts and look at them manually so I am not impressed with this aspect.
The reporting, on the other hand, is awesome and that is what really saves me time.
The invoicing isn't adequate and I stil create my own invoices but I do use Money reports to build theinvoice and then jsut copy/paste as needed.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Great For Small Business Comment: I've used MS Money for Small Business since 2004. It works great for me. I own a sandwich franchise (the #1 sub shop in the world) and a cigar store. At first I used Quickbooks Pro 2003, but it was not very compatible with online banking (maybe they've improved it, but I'm not going to try it until MS Money stops working for me). I needed software that would effortlessly import data from my online bank and MS Money has been a godsend. I have up to six months to update my checking account by downloading the information from online and the download is free. When I used Quickbooks online banking, my same bank charged me $15 a month for that service. It doesn't matter how many times I've downloaded information for a given period, MS Money is smart enough to know what has already been downloaded and not make duplicate entries. I've never had a problem reconciling my account with MS Money, with Quickbooks Pro it was a mouse clicking nightmare. MS Money imports the data seamlessly and all I have to do is verify the categorization of each entry by hitting accept. Quickbooks was far more cumbersome. At tax time, all I have to do is create profit and loss reports and give them to my accountant. I am buying 2007 because I do payroll online now too, and my bank has a direct export to MS Money 2007 option that will make things even easier. Right now I have to export as a QIF file and import. 2007 will import the download directly. It does suck that you have to keep upgrading these financial software programs every few years, but they all do it and MS Money is way cheaper than Quickbooks Pro. Believe me, $60 every few years is nothing to keep track of your business, my accountant costs me 20 times that. I may try Quickbooks Pro in the future, but for my small business needs, I don't see it anytime soon. I have a hard time believing the highly negative reviews of this product. Some people may be bothered that I'm commenting before I actually buy the product, but I use 2005 now and for what I do I already know this program will work. I will write a subsequent review if it doesn't work out, you can bet on that.
