Life changing
I've never had real money concerns, but I wanted to get a grasp on where things were going and to make sure things were being spent on the right things. YNAB helps change mindsets, and I think of money a lot more differently than I did before.

Swiftly fixed an import issue
I had an issue with my credit card not importing and they fixed the issue relatively quickly. They got back to me right away, and told me they were working on it and what I could do to help. I did my part and waited a few days, and now it works again with no issues.

Changed my life. Seriously.
This straightforward tool has seriously changed my life. Yes, I was ready and willing for a change, and there was a definite learning process, but the way I manage my personal finances will never be the same.

I love YNAB
I love YNAB! It has been super helpful to put our money to work for us. We love that aspect. I wish there was a way to plan future paychecks so we can plan for the future a bit better but this helps so much track what we are spending and where that money is going.
