Fixed asset software is useful in tracking a fixed asset inventory. With features such as checking in and out assets, moving assets between locations, and uploading inventory database to a handheld scanner for inventory verification, fixed asset software streamlines the inventory process.

Thank you #41.
It was your comment about suspect awards that made me think twice.
Lockergnome does give them 3/5 stars, but does not recommend it. The file transit does less. I never heard of some of the other download sites, so I didn't bother checking.

But fools, there is not much difference between trusting software with your data, or putting suspect software on the same computer as another program such as quicken.

Thanks GAOTD

PERFECT ... this is what I have been looking for. Simple to use yet very detailed results. I had to play with it for a bit to see if I liked it ---- LOVE IT ---- now time to get serious and really fill it in ;)

Wondering what everyone is crabbing about ***Not worth $30*** blah blah blah ... it's FREE .... shut it!

Try it, if ya don't like it, uninstall it - no real science there.

THANKS MUCH!!!

Installs find in Vista.

If you are a previous Quicken user, you will hate this program. Adding a transaction requires extensive mouse usage. If you are use to typing and tabing you will not like this program.

Transferring from one account to another requires you to enter the amount twice.

I entered about 1/3 of my bank statement, and am now uninstalling. It requires someone with a usability background to recommend changes.

# 58 Roger.... We are not THAT far ahead yet. Just to name a couple, I can ONLY pay my rent by check, also my childrens' schools only take checks for school lunches and other items like recorders (a musical instrument used in 4th grade). Cash is dangerous to carry for a 10 year old and when they only take checks otherwise, then that's what you use. Maybe in another 20 years, but for now, a majority (I believe) of us still have and use checkbooks.

I installed "iMoney" and immediately uninstalled it. In addition to all the misspellings that were noted in the comments above, the logon screen had three lines of text, each containing grammatical errors. You know, People, I just cannot trust a software package that is so careless as to misspell every other word and muck up every line of text. I certainly am not going to supply it with the most important set of passwords that I have.

I can not and will not recommend this amateurishly presented software to anyone serious about maintaining their finances.

I'm on my way to mint.com and some other sites. I need the software - it just won't be iMoney, iGuarantee it!

Or you could try Personal Finances. The free version has unlimited accounts: see comparison with the Pro version. The great thing is that it also has a USB version. Much easier to use and also category-based. Good enough for expense tracking, actually. Just like iMoney here.

If you are concerned about trusting your financial information, who cares about the spelling. The spelling shouldn't be a reason to be concerned about sharing you financial information. Putting your financial information *anywhere* should be a concern. Assuming you're keeping the data on your main computer don't give the program any access and trust your firewall and think about the ppl who might have access to that computer\data.

My sole interest in trying this program was the checkbook feature (entering deposits/withdrawals and keeping a running balance) and after about 10 minutes of testing I uninstalled it. Way too much hassle to enter a transaction, I think just doing it the old fashioned way with pen & real checkbook is much faster.

Installed easily on Vista HP. English is obviously NOT the developer’s frst language, but it’s a minor detail. And yeah, I’m not entering any bank details, either. THAT’S just good old common sense. I know my details, so I don’t really need them in this proggie.


Hard to tell where this comes from. One site which analyzes the binaries says the internal resources look Russian, another site says the author is Simon Sin in Japan. Sin's products are quite diverse as he is also in the video converter field - http://www.vovosoft.com/vovosoft-ipod-video-converter.xml. (similar to many other converters we've seen here over the years - mostly from China)

Personally I use GnuCash... (http://www.gnucash.org/) - primarily because I can check the source code out myself before I compile it :-)

What do you mean? I don't see anywhere on the programs website where it mentions connecting to the internet with your info?
It does say it has an option to auto-update, which means the program would have to phone-home to do that, but one should be able to block that with their firewall right?

Sorry, bad pairing
THAT WAS NOT a knock on Open Office. I used to use both OO and MO at the same time. I refused to downgrade to the ribbon bar in MOX7. Mac pun intended. I now use ONLY OpenOffice.org 3.

This iMoney, matches up to the Quciken 2 and Quicken 2 lite of the late 80s or very early 90s. It was around for like 4 or five years and had 700,000 .x revisions before going to 3, ran on Unix/Windows 2/3, IBM Dos, MS Dos, ..... It is very much like, if not a clone, of that version of Quicken.

Openoffice -> Microsoft Office = iMoney -> Quicken 2.x lite
It's already outdated, long ago. And I'm not sure I'd trust my financial info in a program who's webpage and add links spin in circles back to GATD and Google, re. Using fake info and ghosting dates back and forth, the software works well.

My thoughts:
thumbs neutral or 6/10

Pros: Does what it's supposed to do.

Cons: Questionable background is never good in Financial software.

Questions: Worried about a DLL and a xDL during install. Installer accesses internet.

I've used AceMoney Lite for about a year now and have been really happy with it. However, it doesn't let me do more than handle one account, without paying for the other. I was really excited about this one, until I read the reviews, lol.

The spelling errors for common words bothers me, especially if I am trusting my financial information there. The fact that no one knows who these people are also bothers me a bit. It looks great, but I think I'm going to skip it, and check out the freeware mentioned in some of the other reviews.

Ok, downloaded and installed fine, but after trying to use it, I can't get it to actually show me any information I need! I would only recommend this to someone who already uses this kind of software, since they could understand it. But if they can already use it, I bet they have a better program. I've used my own spreadsheets in Excel, it works much better for me. Thumbs down on this one.

Remember that mint.com, uses the information about your purchases and sells it to third parties looking for market research and shopping patterns. I.E time of purchase, cost, time and how often. This is in the agreement and there is never something for nothing!

Suspect awards - I checked "recommended by Lockergnome", but that one is not verifiable unless recommended simply means "on their download site".

To take another, "5 stars at Filetransit" - nope, no award there.

Now maybe, just maybe, they have been told that awards are pending, but is seems more likely that they are just another awards violator. And of course, there are planty of other listing sites that give everything 4-5 stars.

I'm just going to comment on the installation and coding. It installs cleanly enough. Activation is per-user. The coding isn't so hot. People here who don't know anything about programming claim that Vista requires a bunch of new code. That's not true. Vista compliance merely requires clean coding, such as putting code and data in their proper places. As such, this isn't Vista-compliant (writes data to Program Files, which gets virtualized per-user, do not install or run as administrator). Dialog boxes open across monitors on dual-monitor systems. Tries to access Windows\System32\System.mdb, which doesn't exist. Quick research indicates Microsoft Access uses System.mda and System.mdw.

While this has a fair number of features, I can't bring myself to use these types of applications. In the first place, I don't trust unknown Internet-enabled applications with financial information. There are tons of freeware (including big-name) applications of this type, websites, etc. Apart from security, the big problem is entering or importing the data, categorizing it, synchronizing it with your financial institutions, etc. I've had online banking for years, which does some of what this does (simple charts, etc.) My bills are received and paid online. I receive electronic deposits. Check images are received online, checks can be deposited from home via my scanner. Debit and credit card transactions generally show up online immediately. Funds can be transferred. Transactions can be automated (scheduled). Although I've never missed a manual payment, I recently added billing reminders to my PIM to make sure that I don't.

Since this application is unlikely to appeal to many people, today may be a bad day to mention this, but as the end of the month is approaching, I'll list some of the expiring deals. Previous GOTD supporters: Agnitum is offering lifetime licenses on Outpost Firewall and Security Suite, 3Planesoft is offering their entire collection of screensavers for $99, Blue Project Software is offering discounts on SysTracer (greatly improved from the offered version, although somewhat non-standard UI), Nagarsoft is offering Direct Access 2.1 (just released) for $29.95 using coupon code GOTD-DA2. Not a GOTD supporter, but they make excellent software (including some freeware), NTWind is offering WindowSpace on Bits du Jour on the 27th. It works well, and it works well on Vista, which most similar products don't.

Finally, here's something for your amusement (captured via NTWind WinSnap).
