Business Plan Deluxe

Summary: Not worth the money!
Review: Better off getting going to entrepreneur.com and doing free research than paying for a book and some templates. You pay the same retail price as Business Plan Pro 2004 for Windows and you get practically nothing for it. Mac's version gets 20 sample plans compared to 400 with Window's. Plus in Windows you get a Wizard to guide you throught the whole process. Whats more is that its not even complete. You have to have either Appleworks, Claris Works, Microsoft Word and Excel to use the templates. I admit, I was hoping it would be more user friendly than it is. Don't waste your money on this product. It's not worth it.

Review: If your small business needs a business plan for loan purposes this is great. Very concise and easy to use. I would recommend this to all sole proprietors.

Summary: The Best Mac Business Plan Resource Around
Review: This collection of text and templates was really helpful in pulling together my business plan. There were sample plans and the templates did all the math for me. I just entered my projected sales revenes and expences ... the software did the rest. This saved me time and it is a good value.

Summary: Easy for me!
Review: This product was a life-saver in helping me create a business plan to get a loan from my bank. In just two days I used the templates and guidance provided by Toolkit to put together a plan I'm very proud of. If you need planning software for your Macintosh, I would recommend this product in a heartbeat.

Summary: Waste of time
Review: This product was bad when it was new, about five years ago, and is really not worth it. The worst thing is that you get this one to save a few bucks and what you get is wasted time, when the decent ones are still under $$$. Business planning software does work when you use it right, but what a shame to spend time with this one when there are good ones out there.
