The home screen is divided into three sections with icons representing Income, Accounts and Payees. All transactions are recorded using a combination of these icons which are easy to set up. Record keeping requires little effort and the system allows construction of budgets; reports of expeditures against budgets, itemized expenditures by category and dozens of others. I have tried Money and Quicken and think this by far the easiest to use. It was originally developed by Computer Associates for Kiplinger Personal Finance.
