Personal Use

Hello,
I am looking for a simple home accounts package to keep up with my utility bills etc. Can you help?

Hi Robert,

Sorry but Solar Accounts is not designed for personal use. You may want to look at Quicken, Microsoft Money or Moneydance.

Cheers,

Oh Mark - what an opportunity you are missing - Quicken was discontinued in the UK in 2004, and I understand that MS Money is no more.
There must be more people like myself who want an up to date system to maintain more than basic personal accounts - several bank accounts and credit cards, etc.

Hi Jim,

Yes, we're letting someone else tackle the 'Quicken/MS Money replacement' opportunity. That is, we will not produce a personal finance application.

However, importing data from those products into Solar Accounts is another matter. A number of users have requested these features so they are on our 'to do' list (although we cannot make promises about future development).

Cheers,
