Microsoft Money
You have got 1,001 things to juggle, in addition to keeping an eye on account balances, remembering which bills are due when, and answering the all-important question: Just where is all that hard-earned cash going? Of course, you can check your account balances online, but that doesn't help you easily pinpoint where the money is being spent - how much do you spend on groceries as opposed to dining out? - especially when you have several accounts to track. There has got to be an easier way...
Money consolidates all your financial information and provides fast, complete answers to your basic financial questions. It offers help with debt management, your taxes and lets you manage your investment portfolio.

| Stay up-to-date on accounts and transactions | The flexibility in Money’s account register allows you to choose between: entering all your financial transactions into Money manually; updating your accounts solely by downloading statements from your bank’s website1,2 or using a mixture of both. If you choose to use Online Banking, Money will automatically import the statements you download from your bank1,2, helping you keep your finances up-to-date with minimum effort. |
| Let Money categorise and analyse for you | To help you understand where your money is going, Money categorises all of your transactions so you can see how much you're spending on things like petrol and clothes, or how much you're spending at particular shops and restaurants. Spending progress bars let you easily monitor spending on things you really care about, and alerts let you know when you're close to overspending. |
| Get help with credit and debt | The Credit Centre helps you analyse and manage your credit and learn about credit management. You can also track your spending, set up a budget and use the Debt Reduction Planner to formulate a plan to reduce debt. MSN Money is also on hand with tools to help you find a better credit card rate; show you the savings you could make by re-mortgaging and a multitude of debt-related articles. |
| See your complete finances at a glance. | With Money's customisable home page, you can quickly see what's important to you - account balances, bills due, spending by category, and whether or not you're sticking to those budgets you set. |
