This program and Ultra-Check are the | top-rated home accounting programs by our | criteria, with Cash Control edging out | Ultra-Check, in our opinion, because it has | more features. Here's how we graded CC: Setup | - none; you start using the program | immediately and add accounts as you need them | while entering transactions. Overall ease of | use is very good. Data Entry is fast and | efficient, with a one-screen approach that we | wish all data entry type programs had. | Recurring entries can be handled in bulk or | by pulling entries into the register by just | entering a couple of letters of the payee's | name. Other features include the ability to | customize the check printing output format, | display bar and pie charts, reconcile | accounts, and a pop-up calculator and clock. | One important feature which only a few | programs have is the ability to charge a | check (almost) directly to a balance sheet | account, such as Investme as Investme | (Reg.Fee: $30-$35) CASHC_2.ZIP 22350 09-17-91 See CASHC_1.ZIP CCI_HOME.ZIP 137542 02-11-90 CCI Home Budget allows up to 96 expense | categories; 16 transaction types (check, | credit card, cash, etc.); 10 balance sheet | accounts (savings, stocks); 24 predefined | transactions, such as mortgage payments, for | quick entry; automatic posting of paychecks; | and more.

Massingale) (Reg.Fee: $15) EZFINANC.ZIP 293434 01-28-94 EZ-Finance is a very good home accounting | program, although it is a step behind Cash | Control and UltraCheck. It comes very close | to a one-screen approach for entering and | editing data, except that you have to exit | the screen to change from checks to deposits. | Another shortcoming is that it does not | automatically increment check numbers. Also, | if you do not have most of your 640k free, | the program will run out of memory during | operation and unceremoniously dump you back | to DOS. It has no budgeting capability and it | will not memorize repetitive transactions. On | the bright side, the program is very complete | and easy to use. You can review, edit and add | transactions without changing screens (other | than to change between checks and deposits). | When selecting a category to put an item in, | a scrollable chart of accounts automatically | pops up and will let you add accounts on the | fly.

Features of FB include a | financial analysis section, including | mortgage analysis and amortization schedules, | and graphical analysis of accounts and cash | flow. FB has a unique idea - separate charts | of accounts for your business checking | accounts and your personal checking accounts. | The drawback is that if you have one account | that you use for both business and personal, | you can use only one of these sets of | accounts for it, and you will be limited to | only 39 budget (expense) accounts, the least | of any of these programs. The major drawbacks | to FastBucks are that you cannot add accounts | on the fly and that you must specify on every | transaction if it is tax related. Other | programs let you specify accounts as being | tax related or not, which is much more | efficient because you only have to do it | once. Again, this is a relatively minor | nit-pick, but minor things add up.

(Reg.Fee: $35) TREEBASE.ZIP 322459 01-29-94 TreeBased is a unique accounting program for | home and small businesses. What makes | TreeBased unique is its user interface, which | is a mix of a spreadsheet, outliner, and | checkbook. The main screen, is built around a | financial statement display with the | categories on the left and three | user-selectable time periods (months, days, | weeks, quarters, etc) in the columns. Like a | spreadsheet program, you can scroll the | columns. Like an outlining program, when you | select a category, a box pops up showing | detail of the accounts in it. Because of this | visually nested approach to subaccounts, we | feel that it is easier to set up and follow | subaccounts in TreeBased than any other | accounting program we've seen. In contrast, | Quicken's subaccount approach seems | completely muddled.
