Question: Why Should I Use the Financial Software Forums, Can't I Just Email My Questions?
I frequently get questions via email from readers, and those questions would be best answered in the Financial Software Forum. When I provide assistance via private email, it is often a disservice to other readers who would benefit from finding that same answer in the forum.
Answer: Reasons you should use the About Financial Software Forum:
- When readers post questions in the About Financial Software forum, they benefit from the input of others who use the software in question, and readers who come to About Financial Software benefit from reading questions and answers in the forum as well.
- I check the forum frequently myself to answer questions and while I am there, I get an idea of the kind of questions readers need answered on About Financial Software. Post a question in the forum and you may find it highlighted in my blog, or I may create a helpful article, tip or how-to from your forum post.
- Creating a forum account to be able to post questions is free. And once you create an account to use in the About Financial Software forum, you can use the same account to log on to any forum on About.com!
Forum accounts allow us to manage spam, making About forums more enjoyable for all. You can enter the forum as a guest, but you will only be able to read posts and cannot post your own questions.
