Review Microsoft Office Accounting Express
With Microsoft Office Accounting Express 2008, the software behemoth from Seattle proves it's capable of producing high-quality, free software for the masses. Beneath the clean layout, big icons, and point-and-click interface sits a foundation of solid business features that can benefit almost any company.
The freeware version covers most imaginable needs a small business might have for supportive software. Charge customers' credit cards or manage your bank accounts, payroll, and vendors. You can create and log invoices, quotes, cash sales, and even refunds. Beyond that, the program provides for the modern business, featuring built-in PayPal functionality--an absolute necessity for e-commerce--and a built-in connection to your Equifax profile for looking up credit profiles.
There's also a letter-writing function with modifiable templates, simplifying your communication with clients and vendor. The paid version provides more features, such as multiple user profiles, international currency support, regional transaction tracking, and a fixed asset manager. As part of the Microsoft Office suite, the program includes contact-list integration with Outlook.
Unfortunately, the installation is enormous and time-consuming, and it surreptitiously installs Microsoft SQL Server 2005. Secret installations do not instill confidence. The "advanced options" screen during the install process allows users to choose different database managers, if they have alternatives, but the choice isn't explicitly clear. Overall, Office Accounting Express is an incredible piece of software for business managers. Comprehensive and obviously affordable, Office Accounting Express is hard to beat for business-software value.
