Download.com staffSeptember 27, 2018

So you've taken out a loan, and there's just one critical question on your mind: How much do you have to pay? This freeware program helps users easily figure out payments over the lifetime of a loan.

The interface is fairly amateurish, but straightforward. Loan parameters are entered into one pane, producing the payment schedule in the other. The program also can display the results in an easily-read chart form. The payment information can be exported into other formats, including HTML and Excel, and the program contains helpful links to other financial tools, articles, and lenders. Overall, for people who aren't in the market for a professional financial adviser, Loan Calculator can help shed light on financial obligations for years to come.

Very Good and Practical
cherubiiDecember 23, 2013
Pros
Simple, Easy to use
Cons
Copy and pasting on the loan amount doesn't work, not a big issue
Summary
Very good, user friendly. You will have the basic calculation details. Fair enough for non accounting people. At the end of the calculator, it gives a summary, up to what line you have chosen. So, select the correct line to avoid confusion.
Does exactly what I needed it to do

Pros
Small package, simple layout, quick calculations, easy to read, easy to use
Cons
Doesn't make coffee
Summary
This program is perfect for what I needed... which was, just an easy "smart-phone" like app for doing loan calculations. It doesn't get any more simple or easy than this program... I don't know what people are complaining about; why rate it poorly because it's a "base" model. Would you expect your Honda Accord to have the features of an Acura?

Pros
Oh did not set my puls up. It has a nice setup for the amounts that will occeur through the years. works fine and its free
Cons
I think that only one rather fixed function is a bit cheap for a program like this.
Summary

Helpful if you're about to get a loan

Pros
Tells you what your minimum payments will be, what your interest is going to be each week/month/etc. Handy. Also can give you a report in Excel.
Cons
Cant choose any payment other then the minimum payments. And you're not able to set a date that you want to finish by, etc.
Summary
It's free, and handy! Get it.
Very basic, Very good

Pros
Provides a good amortization schedule; for a free program, nice that it allows a start date
Cons
Can't think of anything
Summary
I was looking for a free, easy, basic program. This is it. I needed an amortization schedule, not just payment calculation. This allows you to select a start date. To print the schedule, you export to Excel, so you have the ability to customize as desired. Serves my needs perfectly.
Missing one feature (for me)
michelcharleboisJune 26, 2008
Pros
range of calculation
Cons
Does not convert well to Excel on my system. Does not let me change the amount of the monthly payment & add a final payment to compensate for the rounded-of monthly payment. Found another program that allows me to do this.
Summary
Great for work.

Pros
I just wanted to be able to run numbers on loans, and this even gives you the amortization schedule. It's not one of those complicated ones that I can't figure out.
