Did I really buy 2007? [Posted on 2007-09-27] The only beef I have with this is that I don't see much innovation since 2000 when I last owned the product. Clearly I thought it was a good product then or I wouldn't have repurchased it. I'm just a firm believer in not having to release a new version of something if you haven't made a drastic change. College textbooks have scarred me for life.
Very disappointing for tracking investments [Posted on 2007-10-09] I bought Money 2007 to convert off of Quicken 2005. I did this as a protest for Intuit not allowing for the export and import of data files.
Anyway, I use Money strictly for tracking investments. I have found this product to only work for VERY basic investment transactions. I have also found that many transactions that Money actually provides a shortcut link to perform cause the application to fail. Stock splits are not handled correctly. Stock spin offs are not handled correctly. If you use these transactions, you will spend a considerable amount of time working in the registers to get your accounts to balance out. You would be much better off just inventing your own methodolgy to handle these types of transactions.
The program is very slow and there are a host of minor bugs. The reporting for investments is very limited and the customizations that are allowed are quite limited.
All of these problems discussed have been reported to Microsoft, but the email I received stated that no fixes for any of these issues would be forthcoming.
In short, if you are tracking investments, I think you would be happier looking elsewhere.
About the same as MS Money Deluxe 2003 [Posted on 2007-10-22] The 2007 version of MS Money Deluxe seems about the same as the 2003 version. There aren't any "new" features that I use. This application continues to run slower than most, even on our brand new computer. I also initially had a problem getting reports to load; they mysteriously began working after about 7-10 days of using the product. Overall, however, MS Money continues to deliver the functions I need to manage my day-to-day finances and investments.
Not worth the money. [Posted on 2007-12-11] Very complicated to use. Hard to store and retreive data. Wouldn't recommend it.
Incredibly bad design [Posted on 2007-12-30] When importing my financial statements, Money requests that I click 'yes' for each transaction. I am importing transactions for the last 6 years. I'll need to click 'yes' thousands of times. The people who have designed this piece of software obviously never used it in real life.
