Microsoft Unveils Microsoft Money Plus

[Nikos Kartalis]

Building on the company’s 17-year history of delivering award-winning financial management solutions, Microsoft launches Microsoft Money Plus, the latest release of the popular Money product line. Money Plus debuts innovative new tools that enable consumers to effortlessly manage all their finances. With customizable “Insights,” Microsoft Money Plus delivers important financial information right to the desktop, without the need to open the Money program. Consumers can personalize Insights to alert them when they are close to preset spending limits or when bills are coming due and can also quickly and easily check accounts to see balances and cash flow.

“Everyone is busy these days, and sometimes you just need to know your account balance or check out whether you have enough extra cash to splurge on dinner, an amazing outfit or the latest ‘must have’ golf gadget,” said Chris Jolley, group manager of the Financial Products Group at Microsoft. “Microsoft Money Plus is designed to provide quick information right when you need it with comprehensive tools, services and commentary to help make financial decisions with confidence. Microsoft Money Plus takes out the guesswork, so you’re able to spend less time worrying about money and more time enjoying it.”

Money Plus is available today at http://www.microsoft.com/money and will soon be available at retailers.
