Microsoft continues to get rid of non-core assets. In March, the upcoming closure of the Encarta (multimedia encyclopedia) and Windows OneCare (antivirus) projects was announced, and now it became known that another Microsoft product - the famous personal finance manager MS Money - was disappearing from the face of the earth. It has already been announced that sales of this program will stop at the end of June, and support will end on January 31, 2011.
After this date, people will be able to continue using the program, but they will no longer receive information feeds with personal information from banks, credit companies and other financial organizations - Before, these flows were automatically “sucked up” into the program, which was its main convenience.
According to analysts, Microsoft simply could not compete with the more advanced Intuit Quicken personal finance management program, as well as with a host of online managers like Mint.com and Quicken Online .
