PCWORLD magazine : selects PlanMagic Business an Editor's pick.

Review by ZDNET : PlanMagic Business contains a series of documents and spreadsheets to help you organize a comprehensive business plan. A walkthrough user interface is included to describe the use of each of the modules, which include plan, profit and loss, balance sheet, statistical data, investment budget, organizational structure, sales, cash flow, profit and loss forecasts, time table, and a graphical presentation. Some information is omitted and some documents are password-protected to encourage registration, but this trial version offers enough formatted information to see the level of quality being provided.

Review by ZDNet
PlanMagic Marketing 5.0 guides you through a detailed market analysis and creation of a model marketing plan. You'll work your way through a well designed browser interface that explains the entire process, step by step. At each point you can click on a document template and jump immediately to MS Word or MS Excel to edit the actual documents in your marketing plan. There are 18 documents and a workbook in the analysis portion, and 16 documents and another Excel workbook in the marketing plan. All the documents are OLE-connected so the entire work remains current and consistent. You modify the model templates to create the exact plan you need. PlanMagic is clear and well organized, you will have to have some knowledge of MS Office to handle the editing.

Program Pros:
* Clear browser layout explains the details.
* Step-by-step process forces you to gather the data and answer the tough questions.
* Transparent links between browser descriptions and Word/Excel templates.
* Thorough !
* Easy install/uninstall.
