The financial site, not the herb. If you want to talk about the latter start your own thread. :D
We happily used Microsoft Money from the mid/late 90's until it was discontinued. We switched to Quicken which has been nothing but trouble. LOML has had to rebuild the data file a few times and spent hours online with support. And frankly its about the only reason she couldn't move away from having a home laptop to a tablet. She has been talking about trying Mint for a few weeks now. Anyone using it that can offer a review? One thing I'm less than crazy about is the cloud aspect. Then when I think about it more I realize all that data is already exposed by the banks on their sites so its not that much different. And over the years we've gotten more than one "oops" letter about security breaches even from them.
Really, the only thing we really use it for is to consolidate information from multiple institutions into one spot. She's pretty happy with the online services the various institutions have, but we have about 4 different ones which is a pain. We don't use it for budgeting, investments, or loan tracking.
