 better than expected August 17, 2005

I had read reviews of this product on tech sites and found that they were right "on". I can view my portfolio online with MSN Money, very easy to set up! Downloading transactions from my bank was simple to set up, too. (You have to call your bank and also have online banking.) I have been using a version of Quickens for many years and this is my first try at Microsoft's Money. It converted and downloaded my quickens files without a hitch. Very impressed by that feature. The only thing that I have to monitor is the banking downloads because it sometimes matches them to the wrong transactions I've entered, but I'm able to check them against the cleared transactions from my bank to make corrections. I think that I'm still learning about that feature, and will get it right eventually. Budgets are a little bit of work to set up, but not hard. Lots of good, useful features included, so it's worth the money.
In summary, I like it better than my old quickens mainly because of the investment tools. It does work well, no weird freezes. Overall, I'm glad I bought it.

This softeware is not ready for prime time. Microsoft is notorious for releasing software before it's debugged, but this may be a new low. I have spent the past 10 days with tech support types, trying to get Money to communicate with MSN and their Bill Pay service, without corrupting my files. The result: I am without ANY financial service that I can trust and still at their mercy.

thats what i've been doing - money 2006 premium's product registration wont work. the rebate link you must go to to get the rebate doesnt have money 2006 listed for any version. microsoft webhelp chat hangs when loading and phoning is a nightmare. as far as the actual software - it converted my 2003 file just fine and the interface is very pretty other than that i see no big improvements to what i had
No Improvement Over Money 2004 August 7, 2005

Purchased Microsoft Money 2006 Premium as an upgrade to my Money 2004. Did the same with Money 2005 last year but could not get it to run effectively (without crashing) so I uninstalled it and went back to Money 2004. Figured that Microsoft probably made a bunch of changes in the two years since Money 2004 so I took the leap to Money 2006. It migrated my data fine and runs without crashing but I am still in search of new functionality. I don't download account data from banks so if functional improvements were made in this area I am oblivious to them. I do know that the screen jumps when entering transactions in the portfolio summary - maybe something that can be patched by Microsoft before it is offered as a "feature" in Money 2007. Bottom line - if have Money 2004 or 2005 you may want to save your money as the features and functionality in Money 2006 are essentially the same.

I can't speak generally of how this software works because I cannot get it to work properly. It will not connect to any bank accounts or credit card accounts. It just comes back with a useless error message. I have never had this problem with Quicken or previous versions of Money that I have used.
