Product Description: Track bank accounts and more in one place! Reports show you where your money goes. Makes tax time easier with these easy to use tools. Also connects Quicken to your bank, brokerage and 401k accounts!
DO NOT BUY QUICKEN Poor programming. Importing feature make errors repeatedly. Have to reinstall several times to get working with errors caused by quicken. Error messages blame financial institution but turns out to be quicken error. Overall I do not recommend quicken and wish I had read the rest of these comments before buying in the first place.
This is a TOTAL piece of garbage!!! I wanted to organize my finances, and friends have recommended using quicken. I have a degree in finance and work at a software company, and this has to be the most confusing program I have ever used. Entries are constantly being placed into the wrong categories, payments to credit cards are showing up as INCOME and EXPENSES at the same time. Transfers between checking and savings keep showing up as income on reports (by quicken's estimate, I am making 4x my salary in income just because I move money between accounts.)
I think I am going to dump this program and use Excel instead ... I spend aboout 3 hours every week just trying to get everying to balance, and this program is taking a lot longer than it would do do things by hand. I've been trying to get ths software up and running for over 3 months, and it just doesn't work, period. Quicken: What are you doing?!? This was supposed to make my life easier ...
Save your money and data and computer As with other users I have been a quicken user for years. The 2004 and 2005 are in shortest phrase; worse ever, bugges loaded with, and if use with xp media edition make sure you save all data, or when closing quicken some times you will lost you drive drivers.
Be afraid, be very afriad! I've been using Intuit products over 10 years, both at home and work. I was recently forced to upgrade Quicken because my bank no longer supported imports into my existing version. Ever since I have had nothing but trouble. I have lost hours, even days of my time working with customer support, I even spent $30 to pay for support for a "fix" that lasted all of 2 days. I am so frustrated with the software and support that I have sworn off purchasing an Inuit product again, ever.
Save yourself some time, money and frustration by staying away from this product!
Quicken 2005 is the WORST yet After being forced to upgrade to 2005, I'm feeling lucky that I haven't completed lost all my data. This is the buggiest software I've ever encountered. I can't seem to use it without my system hanging up about 90% of the time. Their customer support is a joke too. Last year, Turbo Tax incorrectly included a deduction on my taxes twice, and after hours with their phone support folks and no help, I refused to pay for the software, and re-filed on another (practically free) site in less than 1 hour. Needless to say, I haven't even bothered to go that route with this product. I'm just going to find a replacement for it.
This company doesn't have a clue. Stay away from their products. If you think Quicken 2004 is bad, 2005 will make you wish you were still on 2004. It has gotten worse with every upgrade -- I believe I've been using it since 1999.
Makes me wonder about the VERY FEW users here that don't seem to be having problems. Maybe they work on Quicken's "Help Desk."
