Content: I've been using Quicken for at least 10-15 yrs. I have no business relationship to Intuit other than being a long time user of TurboTax and Quicken. I've read all the negative comments about Quicken 2005 and am very surprised. I've been using 2005 Business & Premier for 2-3 yrs and have had no problems after upgrading from earlier version. It's a great program. Works perfectly. I'm a little disappointed that Quicken is making me upgrade to 2008 shortly due to lack of on-line download support. But I'll pay for the upgrade because of the overwhelming value I get from Quicken.
Summary: Long time Quicken user

Content: The changes Intuit has made to what was ONCE a useful product, are TOO MUCH! The WORST, to me, is that much of my 15 years of investment data became inaccessable after I converted. Am not sure, but think the program refuses to access old, inactive investment accounts.
Do not KNOW, because I simply kept the old program (Q2000) and data! No apologies - the company always claimed to be intuitive and user-friendly; for over a decade, it WAS friendly enough, even when I had to start using ZIP disks to back up. It isn't friendly any more, though.
I've spent untold hours recording all my financial information since 1991, including those inactive investment accounts. Quicken 2000 will simply have to keep me going; had meant to upgrade earlier years ago, but am no longer sorry. Read the reviews of Quicken 2003-onward - enough said.
Summary: Quitting Quicken!

Content: There are problems when making payments to vendors. If I select "print check" it will NOT show up in check writing section unless I give it a check number, save it, then put it back to print again. You also have to re-click on values several times to get credit updates to sync. I've gotten so used to it I do it automatically, but these are basic things that should have been worked out.
Summary: It has bugs

Content: I have tride both Peachtree and Quickbooks. These software offer robust accounting features but can be overwhelming for a home office/medium business user. Quicken answers with this great piece of software. It has features for all of my small business and personal finance needs.
Summary: The Best Accounting Software So Far...

Content: I was surprised to see how buggy this piece of software is. Couldn't get it to work. It downloaded statement from my bank but that was a month old.
I am reverting back to Money Express that came free with my PC. That one has much less feature set but at least it works for my basic needs.
Tried the trial version of Moneydance. The user interface seems like it was developed by a bunch of school kids. But it works for many of my needs. Didn't want to pay 30 bucks. Will consider it in future though.
Quicken really shocked me with its poor quality. It crashed several times. It is ironic that an anti-Microsoft* guy like me is actually happier with their product compared to its better selling competitor. Oh well. Shame on Intuit.
*p.s: am a fan of Mr. Gates though
Summary: Too buggy
