 IF YOU WANT QUOTES BUY MONEY NOT QUICKEN September 5, 2007
Edsallstein (Seattle, WA USA)
32 out of 37 found this review helpful
I recently switched to Money after about a year of problems with Intuit's quote server for Quicken. Intuit doesn't care to fix the problem and, for me, its the only reason I use Quicken. I have spent hours on the phone with Intuit, Intuit of India, and the Intuit's Office of the President; all to no avail. Intuit's quote server for the past 45 days has only been providing historical quotes unless you want twenty or less quotes. Intuit's tech support says I should just download 20 quotes at a time. Let's see, 200 stocks, 20 at a time. That would be 10 downloads plus manually selecting the ones I want, about 3 hours of work with Quicken or 3 seconds with Money.
 Not Great - Not Bad September 30, 2007

I've really come to the conclusion that there is not much else whiz-bang you can add to Money and Microsoft has come to the same conclusion. The product really has not changed much since '02. The reason I bought this version? I had to, my 2 years were up from my '06 version. Microsoft stops you from downloading account updates after two years.
Pluses:
- good product, not as buggy as older new release versions
Minuses:
- previous reviewer correct, previous owners of Money are not allowed to use the credit reporting feature
- nothing really new. I've only noticed a new way to budget (and it is just OK)
- one of my accounts was valued at $30 million after converting, I looked at the details of the account and deleted the suspicious entry and re-entered it, that fixed it (repair did not work)
- have to purchase again in two years (I'm assuming), to continue to download account updates
I guess I wished I just purchased the deluxe version. . . Overall, doner just OK with MS Money
 Good program if used carefully December 10, 2007

I have been using MS Money for several years now and it has been a good experience. The improvements from year to year are modest. There are still reasons to upgrade though. First, each version of Money is only good for two years of online services. These services include price quotes for stocks and mutual funds, banking services, and so forth. Second, if you upgrade only once in many years, then the program might have trouble performing the update for you. It has to convert your computer file of financial history to a new format (it changes every year).
I have started a discussion topic "How to enjoy Microsoft Money" that is visible on the product page. This topic explains how I have avoided serious problems using Money.
The most significant competitor to Money is Intuit Quicken. Both programs are good. Recent versions of Quicken became increasingly restrictive about exporting data from the program. That is what prompted me to switch to Money.
 Not worth upgrading October 1, 2007

I have been using MS Money since 1994. I usually upgrade every 3 years to get the new features. I was forced to upgraded to Money Plus (2008) since the newer versions of Money only allow 2 years of online access.
I am a power user of Money, tracking 31 accounts with nearly all of them automatically updated via the online update feature. I use Money 3 times a week.
The upgrade looks exactly the same as Money 2006. Even after looking at the 'New' features that have been added in Money Plus, I find the changes to be very, very weak.
The one change I have noticed is the time to open my Money file has increased from <1 min in Money 2006 to over 4 minutes with Money Plus (2008). I am not sure why there is an issue with the new version. I have archived my data from 1994 to 2003 and have ran the repair utility, neither of which helped the performance.
If I was not required to upgrade because of the two year subscription limit, I would not see any need to upgrade to Money Plus. Let's hope MS puts out a more compelling product in future releases.
Money Plus Premium September 26, 2007

Very satisfied, easy transition from previous version. Works like it is supposed to unlike Quicken 2008 Premium which I also use. I like some features of both programs but if I only had one it would be Money Plus.
