Moneyspire Reviews 133

We migrated from Intuit's Quickbooks Desktop in January 2024 when they forced an outrageous price increase. Moneyspire is a comprehensive, yet very lean application. The conversion process was easy, and using it is intuitive.

It is faster, easier to correct mistakes (such as changing an item from 'Withdrawal' to 'Deposit'), and it allows changing account names directly without having to delete and renter items.

Moneyspire is reasonably priced and offers annual updates with a 50% discount if purchased before publication. We are very pleased and highly recommend it.

A very satisfied user for the last 5 years.
We use Moneyspire to track our spending.
The ability to easily share among our computers works great for us.
I spend the money to upgrade every year because it is worth it to me.
I always receive answers to my support questions.

I used MS Money for decades and had to find a replacement. I still print checks for various accounts. Moneyspire does an excellent job. Its intuitive and simple to use, but is also powerful and loaded with features.

I really like Moneyspire. It is logical and certainly adequate for my needs. It has a pleasing appearance that is easily customized. I like the cloud feature that keeps the data safe from "computer glitches" etc. After years of other competitors my vote is for Moneyspire.

Moneyspire 2025 (paid upgrade) has a buggy interface, with inconsistent opening views.
The upgrade itself works OK, but the opening views for the different sections (Accounts, Reminders, ...) don't always open correctly, requiring resizing of the
sections, or restarting the application to be able to view the sections correctly.

so far so good Like the one time payment and no recurring monthly

Have used Moneyspire for the past six years. The program is an efficient, easy to navigate way to manage our current personal finances plus quickly look back at historical data.
Periodic updates, based on user input, is also helpful.

Overall, it is ok. There are many bugs such as issues connecting/downloading from banks, downloads accurately marking items as reconciled. The Windows and Mac version feel different. I have been using it for several years and some of my reported bugs have been in existence for several years without a fix. It is usable but you have to double check everything.

Moneyspire stopped working with Chase. Couldn't get my transactions. Contacted multiple time Moneyspire customer service; they never cared to respond. Went back to Quicken

#Reporting does not work.
#No connections with Greek banks
#Sometimes data displayed are wrong or need screen refreshing.
#Slow process of correcting known issues (like upgrading stock prices)
#No feedback from support when bugs found will be fixed.

Reports are just bad, failed to list investment income, no special tax report. No thought in this product.

I was a long time quicken user. Quicken price structure changed so I took the risk to move to Moneyspire about eight years ago. I have NEVER regretted it. It is easy to use and reasonably priced. Their response to my few concerns have been timely. They annually provide improvements. My son also made the move to Moneyspire.

Just what I needed for my checkbook needs. Short learning curve, basic, no pop-up windows trying to sell you crap you don't need!!! Nice transaction duplicate function for those monthly entries.

Best replacement to Microsoft Money!
Easy to use. Help is easy to follow

There is room for improvement

When Quicken abandoned MAC, we looked around and found Moneyspire. It does 99% of what Quicken did. It has gotten a better each year. We are very satisfied with Moneyspire.

Once populated with people and things, input can be quick and reliable. Reports continue to have limited success- there are no options to format report layouts for printing - what you get was set by Moneyspire - that turns into many extra pages. Graphics reports need to be expanded to help visualize trends - there is a lot of data that could be easily plotted and I’m hoping the next revision really opens this up.

Moved to Moneyspire over 12 months ago from Acemoney where support & development was lacking. I had some initial teething problems with the download of portfolio prices but with the excellent support from Moneyspire they resolved the issue quickly. Great piece of software, easy to manage, good reports meeting all my needs.

For me, as a Money99 user for many years, Moneyspire is the ideal successor programme for my private bookkeeping. I had to buy a new PC because of Windows 11. Money99 no longer worked properly there. However, the data transfer to Moneyspire didn't work properly either. So now I simply have the old accounting data in Money99 on the old computer and the current data in Moneyspire on the new computer. I didn't have to get used to the new programme and that's very good.

I've been using Moneyspire for a few years and it's pretty good for what I need it for. My needs aren't complicated, but I have quite a few accounts to keep track of. I would like it better if they added biometric authentication to the mobile app - this seems pretty basic, but they have not adopted this suggestion since I raised it for the past 2 releases. If they had biometric authentication, I'd probably rate it 4 starts. Likewise, it would be nice to have some way to order and group accounts on the sidebar. Given that they group by account type, I have suggested adding user defined account types, but no luck so far so I make do using the account types provided and a naming convention to create the order and groups I want. All in all, it's pretty good, but there is room for improvement. I have purchased the past 2 upgrades, but they really haven't improved the experience much as they are focused on features I don't use.
