2.0 out of 5 stars
Financial Institutions Don't Like it,
This review is from: Palo Alto Business Plan Pro 2005 (CD-ROM)
I purchased this software with the intention of writing my business plan for my start-up. The software was very helpful in fleshing out the ideas for my new business with the step by step process. However, the stubling block came when I submitted my business plan to my financial institution; they don't like it. My loan officer and I spent many hours making corrections and getting the document properly formatted for submission to underwriting.
I did get approved, but in the future I will only use the software for structuring the document and will do all the numerical calculations in a separate spreadsheet and import the data.
