 Very Good, 2006-07-19
I've owned Microsoft Money for several years. I purchased this to replace a previous version. It is simple to use and works for basic money management.

 Everything was going fine, until..., 2005-08-28
My computer had a hard crash while MS Money was open (the crash may not have been MS Money's fault). Upon rebooting, I was unable to open the MS Money data file. Additionally, ALL of the MS Money backup files were corrupt. I had to rebuild everything from scratch. What good is the software if it can't recover from a crash?
Also, I was able to import my old quicken files into MS Money, but found that MS Money will not allow you to change the original amount of an existing loan after the loan had been set up. I would have thought that you could change values like that.

Great program, 2005-08-06
Much nicer form than Quickens. I particulary liked the reconcile feature. It takes all the work out of this monthly chore. Good purchase.

Unacceptable file imports/ upgrade behavior, 2005-08-05
While I felt the software was useful, I thought it occasionally was unintuitive and difficult to use. The invoice designer did not work very well, and the general interface was somewhat complicated and unintuitive. My greatest complaint is with the way the system opens files. I can't go into detail, but opening an existing file on a new system is a nighmare. I cannot say what the reason for this is except maybe related to online updates prior to the opening of the file on a new system. However, after updating the new system, problems still abounded. I would not recommend this software to anyone at this price. Maybe at, say, $39.95?

Stay away from Money 2005, 2005-06-24
I purchased MSM 2005 about 6 months ago. The program has crashed on me numerous times, corrupting my master file. It has taken hours to reconstruct the data, and to get my back-up data back into the software. Downloading information from my bank and investment companies is hit and miss. Some days it works, others it doesn't.
Reports are much harder to customize than previously, and even the disk back-up is "broken" IMHO. (Rather than just re-using floppies as in past versions, now you must delete the old copy of the backup file first).
This is without doubt the worst software purchase I've made in years.
