As more and more people become savvy on the subject of their personal finances and financial planning, various persons are turning to personal finance software. Why is a personal finance software right for you? If you are interested in a full breakdown of your personal finances culminating to future financial targets, then personal finance software can help you realize that goal.
Quicken - Quicken is a very well known finance management software. The company that produces quicken has been producing such software since the days of Apple. 1984 is when the first version of quicken made its first appearance in the computing world. The version we are interested in is Quicken Starter Edition 2009. The program is a breeze to install and comes with many financial calculators as well as a well thought out banking section. A backup is available enabling you to store your data in protected locations for an annual fee. Our best pick of the lot.
Acemoney 3.10.1 - Another great personal finance software. Even those unfamilar with the software can begin without any hiccups thanks to the excellent interface. All the most important languages are supported such as Chinese to French. Acemoney enables you to carry out bank transfers and deposits. It is considered one of the simpler personal finance software on the market but we feel that is a plus due to the super user friendliness this software provides.
Moneydance 2008 - Moneydance started life as an open source personal finance software. Not as trouble-free to use as Acemoney but it has lots of more features. Like Acemoney, Moneydance allows syncing with your bank accounts. Online banking deposits and payments are provided free of charge. Remarkably, Moneydance works with Windows, Linux as well as the Macintosh operating system.
Banktree Personal 2.0 - Finishing off our list of personal finance software is Banktree Personal 2.0. It not only syncs with your bank accounts but allows the downloading of data from your account for your personal personal use. It has most of the standard features found on the rest of our picks such as creating budgets, payrolls etc. You can pay your bills through Banktree but there are fees involved. Only two financial calculators are available (mortgage, loan).
