Good for keeping basic accounts, the moment you venture into stokes and multiple currencies it is not working. Also, annual fee increases are way too much.

Reports need improving for accounting based users

I have used several different brands of this kind of software and I can say truthfully that Moneyspire has them all beat.

The program doesn't tell you what's be reconciled and what hasn't. It doesn't tell you the last reconciled balance or date it ended. You can't erase all reconciliation marks and start over. It's Jan 12, and I'm going to have to do it all in excel to finish for the year. I'm sorry I bought this program.

I switched to Moneyspire 3-4 years ago, not being willing to continue Quicken on a yearly subscription basis, which I'd used and LOVED for many many years. I thought MS would be a one-time purchase, but nope, they bug the living daylights out of me to buy the next year's upgrade, which I did the first couple of times; but the price is going up and up and up every year, and I couldn't tell the slightest difference in the program after each new version purchase. Turns out it's the same as subscribing to Quicken, just given a different "name." I decided last year I'd coughed up all the money for this subpar program I was going to; now I'm forever stuck with a banner telling me my not-upgraded version is no longer supported and STILL getting a but*load of reminders to buy the latest VERY EXPENSIVE upgrade! If you love Quicken and think you're getting a comparable program with Moneyspire that you WON'T have to pay for every year, run, don't walk. They're playing you for a sucker!

Major bugs in calculation. Net worth and balance sheets double/triple count investment transactions resulting in inflated net worth and balance sheet asset totals. Customer support does not respond. I really miss Microsoft Money.

First they have major problems with tracking reinvestment dividends. Never shows up on ANY report. Seems the staff has addition problems. Hire someone who ko=noes about finance.

Customer service is bad. In August 2024 I prepaid for their 2025 Pro upgrade, scheduled for an October release. The Pro version includes Invoicing. First, I was not notified that the 2025 version was available, I had to ask and the next day I was provided with a link. None of the 3 download links sent, over a period of 2 weeks, resolved my problem. I was initially not provided the Pro version, subsequent links albeit Pro did not include Invoicing, which is what I paid for and hence was not resolved. They never asked a question, i always sent ..another link and none of the downloads fixed the issue. I assume Moneyspire is a very small company with limited support.
