Is there an alternative to Microsoft Money?

As the subject says.Does not have to be free or shareware but it must be as good as Money.It would also be a bonus if I can inport my Money file into it.

Thanks

There are a few opensource / free possibilities (whether they allow MS Money importing I cannot say).

I'm guessing you use windows so your choices are:

Money Manager: http://www.thezeal.com/software/index.php?Money_Manager_.NET

Ace Money Lite: http://www.mechcad.net/products/acemoney/index_lite.shtml

Jgnash: http://jgnash.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Main_Page

Money Box (free beginner version): http://www.moneybox.ai/

If you use Linux (or possibly Mac OS X)then you have:

GNUcash: http://www.gnucash.org/
KMyMoney: http://kmymoney2.sourceforge.net/index-home.html

brookhaven

Or you can try....

Personal Accountz http /accountz.com/household.html

Its cross platform, and has an excellent data entry method which makes it very quick to enter data.

The company is very responsive to help requests.

I spent a long time looking for something equivalent on a mac, since Money was my final piece of Windows software left over from running a PC. I found 2 pieces of software.

MoneyWell (about $50 USD)
and
moneyGuru (about $30 USD)

Both are good in their different ways, I personally opted for MoneyWell, as it imports Money files pretty well and allows me to download & import my Quicken or MS Money format statements from my bank, just like I did with MS Money.

MoneyWell can sometimes be had on special offers every now and then from macupdate.com as a part of a $50 bundle, which is how why I went with it.

Hope this helps.

Sorry I couldn't post the links for these. As a new user the site won't allow me to post links.

Why not? The post is still as relevant today as it was three years ago, since MS Money stopped the UK edition at v2005.
