| 67022 | 2002-07-31 09:18:00 | I want to purchase some software to monitor the returns on some investments and wonder if anyone has had experience with these programs used for that purpose. I used Money 99 but it didn't do a good job at this task. Any comments appreciated. | Muzz (1286) | ||
| 67023 | 2002-07-31 09:24:00 | I do seem to recall that Quicken would do more, but I don't remember if it tracks investments one way or the other. It's a while since I reviewed it. If they are local ones and you want to link local share prices or indices directly into the software, not sure if either will do that. robo. |

Most probably, but it is far more featured, so may be able to track investments etc. better than the others. If I could afford it I'd buy it :) but at the moment I'm just sticking with Quicken (a now old-ish version). Mike. |

| 67028 | 2002-07-31 22:53:00 | I have used QuickBooks for a few years as a church treasurer. I am not an accountant but it does most of what I want. I do recall however in the overview notes that it expressly said it was not suitable for investment monitoring. I don't have the package any more but I think it recommended Quicken. (But then they would wouldn't they !! (:-) |
