I got this to write a proposal and I ended up also needing a business plan. So instead of renewing my business plan pro program I looked at this software. It was intuitive and easy to follow with lots of directions. The main learning curve has to do with using the software properly, just read the directions and it all works smoothly. It makes me look like I have a big team behind my small company! So many choices that I have little to do but fill in the blanks."
