### "Mint an excellent choice for all your budgeting and financial planning needs"

August 4, 2022

5.0

I have been a customer that has stood the test of time. After many attempts years ago to find the program that would work best for me, I was introduced to Mint and never went back.

Pros

I love that I have had one piece of software that I have used for more than 10 years! I also appreciate that updates make it better each year! It has served my purposes in personal finance and in business which thrills me. Thankful for software that truly helps its customers rather than just seeking to take advantage of or use its clientele.

Cons

Some features are frustrating. I would like to be able to adjust past budgets for instance and have everything updated to the present. Also, getting the categorization feature to be consistent as I always have to double-check most months. While this is a con I am super thankful for the items it get right!

Reason for choosing Mint

Mint replaced Microsoft Money for me and was a great find.

### "Intuitive Interface and Simple Synchronization Outshine Competition"

December 6, 2022

5.0

This finance-tracking software is the best that I have come across since it allows me to easily establish goals and keep track of all of my finances.

Pros

For years, I've used Mint and its been so helpful to me. I check it every day, and it has been quite helpful in keeping all of my funds organized, especially with keeping track of multiple streams of income. Mint's interface is really simple to use and straightforward. All of my information is centralized and very simple to see and read. Also, the program's affordability is just unbeatable. Their ad-supported version is free, while their ad-free version is just $1 per month. Connecting several bank accounts, loans, etc. has always been fairly simple. Custom transaction types and tags are simple to add, allowing you to search and filter according to any criteria you choose.

Cons

Sometimes Mint is unable to distinguish between distinct transactions, which makes for incorrect budgeting results if I don't keep a careful eye on the details. If possible, this could stand to be cleaned up, but the app is still useful for doing most of the heavy lifting.

### "Easy way to keep track of your personal and families finances!"

December 14, 2022

5.0

Love this solution to keep track of our complete financial picture! It's easy to search for present and past transactions. You can set up budgets and see how your spending compares! It's a great solution that everyone should use!!

Pros

Mint is an easy product to set up and it directly links to your financial accounts. It is very secure because of Inuit's expierience with cloud solutions you can access your information on any device securly.

Cons

There is not a lot of negatives. I would say some financial insititutions occationally loose their connection to Mint but they work on it to correct the issue.

### "Mint is the best Personal Finance Software"

February 28, 2021

5.0

Mint has been a tremendous lifesaver in helping me to aggregate all of my personal finance data into one single location. I am very happy with this program and will continue to recommend it to all of my friends. I feel that being able to use this software and being able to quickly see all of my financial accounts in one place has helped me tremendously with budgeting and with financial growth.

Pros

Mint is a novel, innovative software for tracking finances. I was an early adopter to Mint and have enjoyed seeing it blossom into a fully featured program for tracking finances, transactions, investments, debts, expenditures, credit, and much more. I like how the program provides a simple, elegant interface for tracking a wide variety of financial components all in one place.

Cons

What I like least about Mint is that sometimes it is not compatible with certain financial products or with certain banks/businesses, which requires me to manually input data in order to replace this information. I have found that sometimes the connectivity with Mint is also inconsistent.

### "Budgeting Done Right"

March 23, 2021

5.0

Overall Mint is my go-to source for making sure there are no irregularities in my budget and that I am spending wisely. Due to my large amount of money accounts, I couldn't trust any other company to continually track my money.

Pros

For those who have many credit & checking accounts across a wide variety of banks, Mint is one of the best solutions out there to easily track your spending. It lets you link an unlimited number of accounts, so if you are like me and have many credit and checking accounts you can make sure you will be able to easily stay up to date on all your transactions. It also sorts all purchases by store so that you can easily search for them later.

Cons

I do not like that Mint doesn't let you delete transactions as this can cause miscalculations within your budget, especially if you are using a credit card and checking account it will show the money was taken out two times because it includes the charge and the payment. This can cause the numbers to not properly be balanced.

### "Mint is a decent financial management solution, albeit limited in scope with questionable privacy"

November 22, 2021

4.0

Pros

Mint is relatively easy to setup and allows you to link a broad category of accounts including: bank accounts, credit cards accounts, utilities (such as gas and electric), internet, and even investment accounts. In addition, Mint supports a broad number of companies within each category such as Wells Fargo, Chase, Xcel Energy, Xfinity and Robinhood. Mint provides a fairly robust set of tools to manage your finances and set budgets. You can create categories for your purchases, and Mint will attempt to automatically assign your purchases to a specific category. Perhaps one of Mint's best aspects, it is completely free.

Cons

It is not unusual for linked accounts to suddenly become unlinked, and while Mint is supposed to notify when that happens, it often does not. To relink an account you must go into the Mint app, go into the account settings, and manually relink each affected account. While the process is not difficult, when an account becomes unlinked you no longer get notifications when say a credit card bill is due. The security and privacy of Mint has been brought into question by many sources, since linking accounts gives Mint nearly full access to those accounts. I personally have never had an issue, but it is something to consider. The overall Mint interface can be rather clunky and difficult to navigate.

### "The easiest way to manage all of your finances!"

July 22, 2021

5.0

I've used Mint for years, and love it. I check it daily, and it has really helped me organized all of my finances. The daily credit score and tips are great. I have recommended to many people!

Pros

I love that Mint connects with all of your credit cards, bank accounts, and loans and gives you an easy to read list of balances, due dates, progress towards goals, and much more.

Cons

Some bank account connections need to be re-established regularly, but it is easy to do. I am guessing that is a security feature of the bank, and not the software's fault.

### "Mint for budgeting"

July 25, 2021

4.0

Mint has been a good platform to keep track of our accounting.

Pros

Mint does a great job in tracking the expenses I make across several different account. It gives a good overview of my financial status. It helps to make budgets and adjust my expenses to cash-inflow. I can also check credit score.

Cons

Of late, they try a lot to push in credit card and other financial product offers on the platform, this can be distracting for an user who primarily uses the platform for accounting.

### "A wonderful product for personal financial tracking"

June 4, 2021

4.0

I love using this to keep track of my personal finances. I feel much more in control of everything than before I used it.

Pros

I login for a couple of minutes every day. Since it's automatically linked to all of my accounts, I am way way more likely to catch any fraudulent charges. I feel much safer keeping an eye on everything, all in one place.

Cons

I'd be happy to pay a bit monthly towards removing ads. The phone app is difficult to use, you really need to use the online version on a computer.

### "Life Changing "

August 4, 2022

5.0

I am in love with this program. With inflation and the cost of groceries these days my husband and I felt like we needed a better understanding of where we were spending our money. Now we see in real time where each dollar is allocated. It set up a budgeting system for us and allowed us to tweak it to our personal/family needs. Anyone who is not a financial expert should have its. It is really life changing.

Pros

All of your information lives in one space and is extremely easy to see/read. This platform takes all of your spending and shows you where your money is going. The budgeting tool is automated and shows you in real time where you are spending and where you need to cut back.

Cons

Setting up the accounts is time consuming- that is mostly because you need to remember your user name and password for ALL of your bank accounts, credit cards, entertainment, utilities etc. My mortgage company does not participate so I had to figure out how to manually enter that information. If you already are organized and have easy access to all of your accounts then it shouldn't be as stressful as it was for me.

### "Mint - Budget Software"

July 27, 2021

5.0

I've been able to better manage my money and make better personal finance decisions. Staying on top of money gives me peace of mind and confidence.

Pros

I like that I'm able to connect with my bank accounts, credit cards, Venmo, PayPal, etc. Being able to connect to the systems I use for exchanging money allows me to best budget within the app.

Cons

I don't know that there's really anything I like least. The good part of Mint is that they are always releasing updates and it seems that they take user feedback very seriously.

### "Perfect for personal budget"

February 2, 2022

5.0

Pros

I like that my husband and I both can see where we're at with our budget at any given point, and easily adjust each category depending on what we have coming up that we might need to save for. That helps me plan what hours I'm working as well.

Cons

It seems to disconnect pretty frequently from syncing with my bank account, but I'm not sure if it's a security feature.

### "Makes Managing Finances Easy"

March 2, 2021

5.0

Easily track day-day-day credits and debits of all accounts.

Pros

Mint is a phenomenal program to help me keep track of every penny (pretty much) that is going in and out of my various accounts daily. Additionally, I can track bills and get suggestions. I'm an avid user and for good reason.

Cons

It sometimes cannot connect to certain accounts and as a read-only platform, it's not intended for robust transacting.

### "Unbelievable!"

July 10, 2021

5.0

The best way by far to track your finances and budget.

Pros

Mint is a great way to track all your personal finances, the mobile interface is great and it is easy to link all your accounts.

Cons

Nothing bad to say here, at points it was hard to link certain accounts and they would not refresh, but those issues have for the most part been resolved.

### "The best alternative for personal finance tracking"

April 8, 2021

4.0

It is still the best free-to-use personal finance tracking. If you can handle the ad and regular manual adjustment to correct the automatic categorization, Mint would work for you.

Pros

Mint is free to use, feature-rich personal finance tracking. Mint supports all major financial institutions and automatically download user's transactions. It provided a meaningful overview of personal wealth, income statements with categorized expenses.

Cons

Since it is free to use, Mint uses ad which may distract end-user. The automatic categorization makes the same mistakes until the user applies manual adjustments. The manual adjustment process is slow and has not been updated for at least 3 years.

### "Mint integrates well with Intuit's ecosystem"

October 9, 2022

5.0

I will continue to use Mint as an alternative to cost-based options. It does everything I need with no cost. Pretty amazing, actually.

Pros

Super easy to use and very intuitive. It integrates all my personal finance accounts in one place, permitted me to take regular snapshots of my financial picture.

Cons

It takes several minutes to update the accounts once the web-based UI is invoked. I would think this could be done ahead of time instead of based on a user's clicks.

### "Perfect for a first time budgeter"

November 28, 2016

5.0

My husband got me hooked on mint! The idea of budgeting was intimidating before, but with mint's ease and organization, I'm addicted! I love the program. I love that I can create new budgets, split purchases between budgets, and create budgets that roll over between months.

Pros

Splitting purchases between budgets is a huge advantage! SO easy to set up and to get all your transactions in one place.

Cons

I wish the budgets I wasn't using (for example "restaurants" instead we have a "eating-out/fun" budget) didn't have to show up all the time if I wasn't using them. I also wish you could have multiple logins for one mint account.

### "Decent for expense tracking, but that's about it"

July 7, 2022

3.0

It helps with expense tracking and it does very well in that regard.

Pros

It does a good job of automatically logging expenses and after implementing a few custom rules, it's pretty accurate with categorizing them properly.

Cons

The budgeting aspect of mint does not match the reality of how people "really" budget. There will always be months of overspending and months of underspending... and everyone's "income" is a bit variable (monetary gifts, product returns, etc). Mint doesn't account for these very well and it does nothing for planning.
