 Sweet!!!! March 2, 2006

What a great product. Not much change from last year interface wise but time will tell. There is a new enhanced smarter interface to banks on some of my existing accounts (previous version weren't great at keeping transactions in sync/balanced based upon how the banks were connected).
 Works for me!! March 1, 2006

I am currently trying the 90 day free trial for Money Deluxe 2006. Also, I purchased Quicken Premier for Business 2006 and have returned Quicken which has a 60 day return policy. i tried both head to head. I do like some feautures in each product. Quicken downloads your accounts much quicker then Money does. I have a big problem with Quicken. I cannot download a QIF file. Since my main credit card is in a QIF file i cannot track that. So, for me, that alone is a deal breaker and MS Money will work with that credit card company. Quicken does have some great online support features but for Money I needed to register and couldn't find the key I needed. maybe this is because it is a free trial version.Each program has it's own idiosynchroncies. It did take a while for me to get the accounts right in Money 2006. They appear to be fine now. There is definitely a learning curve for each prroduct. i recommend trying the Money 90 day free trial and purchasing Quicken which has a 60 day money back guarantee, as I did, to see which one works best for you. It can be very frustrating when these programs don't so what you want them to do but there are learning curves and i realize they are not perfect. I am getting used to Money and am learning as I go.
Update March 24, 2006
I backed up Money and did a restore and had to set up my online services again so I would be able to get my updated account information. This did not make any sense to me.
Not worth upgrade from previous years... February 26, 2006

I agree that this software does not provide a significant update to the previous year's version. It may be worth picking up just because it can be obtained for free with certain deals. I have the standard version on one machine and deluxe on the other. I don't believe that deluxe is a significant upgrade for most people either. The functionality of the planning software is unfortunately not that great.
Works well - has a few problems February 25, 2006

I've been using MS Money for quite a few years now and like it, mostly. This version is an improvement over my last (2002) version, but not spectacular. It does what I need it to do and does it well, with the following exceptions:
1. It's hard to get the reports I want. When I find an included report that I want to use, it lets me customize it (that's good), but it saves my changes to the included report (that's bad!!). I should be able to change any report, but then I should have to save it as a different / favorite report. It shouldn't allow me to make changes to the base reports because then I can never go back and use the base report - kind of stupid.
2. The performance with this version is a bit slow. I have a new 2.1 Ghz computer with 1 gigabtye of RAM, but it still takes about 30 seconds to a minute to load on the home page (with the graphics on). It also seems a bit sluggish other times.
3. The budgeting process is very difficult to work with, but with patience, it does the job.
Overall, it does what I want it to do, and is an improvement over my older version, but could certainly use some help in reports and budgeting. It's a better choice for me than Quicken (which also has its problems).
Hopefully, MS makes more substantial changes in the next version.
 Weak display February 25, 2006

THe screen display for the check register is hard to read and the display cannot be modified. Very primitive by today's standards. Works okay.
