If you want a product that so you can keep a check of your accounts then i would recommend Personal Accounts Home edition. I am a qualified bookkeeper for manual accounts and i am studying to become a computerised bookkeeper. So i wondered how this product would compare to the one i am using in my studies.

It compares very well, i think, as the one i am using for my studies is really for business. If you want one just for your finances to keep track of where you spend your money each month then this is a good product for the price.

It is fairly easy to use, the only thing i found odd was, when i opened up the demonstration version it was not very helpful, then when i went to open the Personal Accounts icon, i just ... Read More:

Not worth spending the money.

Whilst the interface is quite intuitive and easy to use, I was most disappointed with the inability to import or export data.

You can export items to a spreadsheet, however the inability to import data in CSV, QIF or other formats makes me wish I had kept my £20 and just carried on using a Spreadsheet or Access. Be aware the website is now Accountz (with a Z - version 6) this is version 5...

3.Quicken XG from: Intuit
April 04, 2003
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Software : Quicken XG
I picked up the wrong box at the local outlet store (Evaluation version rather than Full, and nothing on the box to explicitly tell you this!) Am glad I did now, I have saved wasting the total 60 quid.

I have used Quicken for 11 years now, and I can safely say this is the worst release ever! Graph functionality has been removed, the interface is counter-intuitive and clumsy, and "online banking interface" means diddly-squat!

Software : Quicken 2004 XG
I have used Quicken, in all its various releases, from March 1993 up to the present day, and was extremely perturbed to receive a letter from Intuit that they are withdrawing from selling Quicken in the UK after 31 January 2005! Support for Quicken will also cease on 31 January 2006!

This a very retrograde step by Intuit; I have investigated Microsoft Money which is different, being better at some things, but worse in others.

Perhaps we should all back Bill Gates, and Microsoft, a little more.

I wonder if Amazon will see a large increase in sales of Money?

Companies like Intuit don't deserve us buying their products.

5.Quicken 2000 Deluxe from: Intuit
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

>>More Details
Software : Quicken 2000 Deluxe
After using Money 99 Standard Edition I felt I needed a change, therefore I looked around at the different products available. Quicken2000 Deluxe does everything I want and more. It is easy to use, and I can use it on the internet to keep track of my bank account, no longer waiting for my statement each month. I don't yet pay bills online, but with the calender I can at least have a better idea of when each bill is due.

6.Microsoft Money (PC) from: Microsoft
September 14, 2004
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Software : Microsoft Money (PC)
Money 2005 isn't sophisticated enough to deal with tax returns. For instance, it can't handle split capital allowance pools. Work arounds are possible but they defeat the purpose of having a set of "linked accounts". The program is also confusing to use. It really requires the purchase of a seperate "how to use guide" (I used Microsoft Money for Dummies 2005) to make it manageable.

It has taken me 3 or 4 times longer to complete my accounts this year using Money 2005. Needless to say I will not be using Money 2005 again.

Software : Money 2001 Standard
I have been using Money 2001 since it came out and have been very satisfied with it ever since. I've given it 4 stars as it can be a bit cumbersome to begin with but perhaps that is due to my complicated finances! It is very easy to use and it actually becomes quite addictive at the end of the day or week to see exactly where you stand and how your investments or debt are improving (hopefully!) Recommended if you want to get on top of your finances but you do need to work at it and be organised with input of data for it to work properly!
