This has all the features that I needed. I accidently purchased Simple Start (Quick Books) and that program was very lacking in features.

This one connects to my bank with no issues and downloads my statements and. . . well it just works.

I’m currently working to determine if there is an issue, It routinely does not take deposits and reflect them on the register (the program) thus making my available balance different than actual balance. This is a recent event. This has not happened prior to Feb 2010. An update???

Evidently Quicken users were /have been clueless as to how a money management software could work!!! after trying quicken I miss Money even more!! I’m even more frustrated that its the only game in town. I used to think Quicken and Money were comparable or Quicken even better based on reviews but since I had used Money since the start. . . But No more do I think that way! I have till August for my copy of Money to stop syncing with my Banks. I may just go back to Balancing manually and keep using Money as Quicken is just too Quirky!! Sad that even Intuit seems to think i want online (Mint) not stand alone software. Too bad. I’m sorry Microsoft that I took you for Granted!

I started with Quicken in the early 90’s and moved to Money in the late 90’s. I was a little apprehensive about using Quicken after learning Money was discontinued, but I have really been favorably impressed after a month of ownership.

Rather than convert my historical Money file I opted to do a fresh implementation with data starting as of 1/1/09. I was able import the 11 months of 2009 data from my major banks, but I am not sure that will work with all banks. Thus an easier approach would be to just start the first of some month. I am really impressed with the ease of updating bank information with one click. For my bank accounts this is superior to Money. The whole interface and cleanness of the Quicken program is really great.

I did opt to track my investment data on Excel, so I am not sure how this would work in Quicken.

I would have rated it 5 stars except the QIF data import is missing and the Money file conversion from what I have read is problematic. Thus it got 4 stars from me, but at $33 it is a bargain considering all it does.

I was looking to replace of old 1995 version of Quicken which would not install on Windows 7 system. Several negative reviews had me trying (and paying) for Shareware versions of banking type programs. After beating my head against the wall with one of the shareware programs, I decided to go ahead and give Quicken 2010 a try. Did the instant download from Amazon. Everything I could hope for in this type of program was there. Setup was easy, account setup was easy, works smoothly. Very pleased!

I have been using Quicken for many years now and still love how easy it makes life.
Over the years I have had several different operating systems, has worked well with all.
Sure, there have been little glitches now and then, but all in all it continues to work for me!
Also love the fact you can now download the latest version on Amazon.
