Microsoft discontinues Office Accounting after 16th Nov

If you have been using Microsoft Office Accounting software, then there is some news for you.  As per the communications email from Microsoft, it will no longer be distributing Office Accounting after 16th November, 2009.  Though you may continue using it, but some of the service will not work as mentioned below:

Dear valued Microsoft® Office Accounting customer:

We are writing to let you know that we will no longer distribute Microsoft Office Accounting after November 16, 2009.

As a registered Office Accounting user, you may continue to use Office Accounting after November 16, 2009 and Microsoft will continue to offer product support for Office Accounting in accordance with the terms of the support policy.Microsoft-Office-Accounting

However, the following add-on services for Office Accounting will be discontinued on December 15, 2009: online sales through eBay, credit profile through Equifax, download of tax mappings for tax preparation software and setting up online banking.
………
The Office Accounting Team

So if you have been using MS Office Accounting, please consider using other software like Quickbooks etc.  Looks like Microsoft is really loosing hold on Money and business related applications.  Microsoft has already discontinued Microsoft Money.

Most probably, most of the users of Money and Office Accounting will migrate to Quicken.  Please note, Quicken has recently acquired Mint which will be replacing their Quicken Online Money management web application.  Other than that there is no major contender in this space.

What you have been using – Quicken, Mint or other money management service like Rudder etc?  Let us know how you manage your finance.
