New features in Georges Budget for Excel v18:
Customers have different financial needs so the budget app is always improving with new tools to make managing your money easier.
New Feature #1: Added two additional registers for a total of 14 accounts, allowing you to manage more accounts in one great checkbook app with integrating personal budgeting (prior version had a maximum of 12 accounts)
New Feature #2: Added "Account Type" Excel slicer (filter) to the Pivot Table Net Worth Chart & Report so you can easily filter your accounts by all Asset accounts and / or all Liability accounts. This allows you to see trends in your cash accounts or debt accounts separately as groups without having to individually select each account to see all your assets or all your liabilities. Currently, you can select a single account, a group of accounts or all accounts but this slicer (filter) will make it quicker to select all your cash accounts or all your debt accounts and see trends in them over time and track your balances so you know where you stand financially and can make better financial choices.
New Feature #3: In the top summary section of the 14 account registers, added a count of the Total Cleared transactions similar to the existing count for Total Outstanding items giving you another tool to help you reconcile your account by allowing you to quickly see a count of how many transactions have been marked as cleared (reconciled). It is important to balance your checkbook and reconcile your credit cards due to the increase in financial fraud and this is another reconciliation tool to help you catch fraudulent transactions such as unauthorized credit card purchases.

Outstanding Software
George is definitely an Excel master. It shows in his work. I cannot recommend this any more highly! I am an accountant and am very tired of the stranglehold Intuit (Quicken, QuickBooks et al) has on this marketplace. I am having my clients switch to this. Cheers George!
Hi James,
Thank you for your 5-star review! I appreciate your feedback on the budget template and hope that more people can break free from the recurring subscriptions fees that these big software companies charge. Thank you for recommending my checkbook software to your clients...It's great to have your support.

Georges Budget for Excel v18
I recently upgraded to Georges Budget for Excel v18. The spreadsheet is an excellent replacement for Quicken, without the annual subscription. George responds quickly, to email questions. I highly recommend his products.
Hi Greg,
Thank you for your kind words. I'm glad to hear you are able to benefit from the budget spreadsheet. Being able to cancel subscription services that are no longer needed is a good reason to celebrate!

Outstanding application -- as always. Still my favorite.
George has once-again done an excellent job with his enhancements with V18. This product remains my favorite budgeting and tracking application. Unless you need the all the over-complex features from a package such as Quicken then V18 is exactly what you need! Very robust and powerful, yet familiar and very easy to use. Job well-done!
Hi Jonathan,
Thank you for the awesome review and for being a loyal 6-time repeat customer. Your feedback related to product improvements and design ideas is greatly appreciated. I'll take simple over complex any day!
