If you frequent personal finance sites on the 'net or you visit social bookmarking sites or Web 2.0 news feeds, you have heard of Mint already since it has racked up a few awards and has enjoyed quite a bit of chatter across the Internet for a few months now. If you still haven't heard of Mint, it is free online software for simple money management. Mint.com is is easy to use and has some really cool features (no pun intended - really) like automated transaction downloads that update accounts every night, weekly or month account summaries via email or text message and great-looking graphs to keep an eye on where your money goes. Oh yeah, and Mint give you ideas for saving money on the things you are buying now, but it does not throw ads in your face to do it. I love being able to refer to offers when I want to, and not be inundated with pop-up ads.
Read my Mint.com Review, and be sure to check out Mint.com.
Have you tried Mint? Let us know what you think in the comments!
I tried to add my bank account but it didn’t work, I am going to contact them for help. It looks like a good site overall.
I have downloaded Mint over a month ago and if it doesn’t support your bank it really isn’t of any help with your checking account register. I was able to do my credit card and investment account but I was looking for check register software.
I tried to set up Wesabi many times and it did not work so I tried MINT! I love it! Set up was fast and easy and I love the budget overage alerts I get! They have it all figured out at Mint.com. I highly recommend it!
I have tried mint,yodlee in the past.Mint was good but Still I was not getting the right chord with the finances.My friend(financial accountant) suggested me manageME which really helped me a lot.Now a new enhanced version is coming with a lot more new features.You may check at http://www.manageme7.com
Really great concept, layout, and features but Mint simply doesn’t meet my needs. I have accounts with Wells Fargo, which Mint easily connected to, and with a fairly large locally-based bank which Mint could not connect to, and accounts with a relatively small credit union which Mint also could not connect with. I would love to use their services and as soon as they support my institutions I’ll use it regularly.
I actually recently did a design analysis of Mint, Wesabe and Yodlee. Here’s the link if you’re interested:

Mint is my personal favorite.
Just wanna share that I have recently signed the exclusive pre-launch offer of upcoming verson manageME7.I happy to say that I am getting great discounts for using it’s services.You may also get the early user benefits by visiting http://www.manageme7.com/
Also great features such as multiple currency support that will really help me and you out there while travelling will be incorporated in managEMe7.
I love Mint.com
I spend 3 hours playing with it yesterday. Not that it takes any time, but i had to create budget and sort items arround and split transactions into multiple items. So far its doing good job showing me how i spend my money. It does that better than Bank of America website.
Must admit I really liked the review, it prompted me to visit mint.com. Nice website and product. As a small business man I need to keep a track of my expenses and invoices. Though I have been using http://www.invoicera.com/ for invoicing, I am also looking for an efficient money management software.

I was using MS Money until it could no longer connect to my bank when they changed how their sign-in works. Mint.com had no problem connecting to my bank and does a far better job automatically categorizing transactions. I love it.
