Hi Mel,

I have the full version and am very pleased with it. I run my consulting business on it and have found it pretty easy to customize. Unlike Quickbooks, the data is stored in MS Sql files and the API is readily available. I do like it better than Quickbooks even though it doesn't have as many features. My big disappointment is the support from Microsoft. I do not actually need support but I don't feel that they are putting much resources into the line. The MS groups are not well attended and you very seldom see anyone from MS there. I could be wrong but I wouldn't be surprised if they dropped it like they recently did the Money programs. But, I plan on continuing to use it and hope they will continue to bring out new updates in the future.
