I just graduated from LSU and entered the work force and I would like to stay on top of my finances from the get go. What's the best software for this? I've used mint.com before but I was wondering if anyone had any experience with something more in depth.

Mint works very well for me. Haven't tried anything else.

I use both Mint & Excel, I prefer Excel. I'm also an Analyst and power excel user. Mint has some good features, but I've had problems with syncing historical data so it makes it hard for trending.

Mint.Com is great, until you use Campus Federal.

I wrote my own with Excel and functions in VBA.

But... I have degrees in ISDS and Finance.
