Question by Donkey: Intuit Quickbooks Simple Start best software for personal finance?
I am a young professional and was looking for the best personal finance software to manage my budget and banking the best. As a present, I got Intuit QuickBooks “Simple Start”, but it reads like its better for business than personal finance. Is this a good software to use, or should I exchange it for something else?

It’s overkill for your purpose. Quicken Duluxe is all you need.

Whilst it will certainly be enough for your needs it will have a lot more as well & if you start a business or have some kind of extra income inflows with debtors & creditors you will able to manage these transactions as well with QB.

In other words if your needs expand the software will be able to accommodate them.

In regards to web-based personal finance software, I’d recommend looking into Green Sherpa or Mint. Mint is free. Green Sherpa allows users to plan for their financial future by providing a Goal Keeper tool which is one of a few features unique to their software. It all depends on what you are looking for.
