financial software

Someone asked me the other day which software is better, Quicken or Money. 
 
Personally I use Money.  Why? Because Money had a free trial.  Seriously that was it.  I wasn't sure I would really use the software at all, so the trial was important.  I can't see any reason one is better or worse than the other.  (OK, I can, but none of the features are different enough to matter to me.) 
 
The real point is you have to use the software.  You can't just buy it and expect to better manage your finances.  If you use any finance software, or even tracked your finances on paper with discipline, you'll be way ahead of where you are now.
