5 out of 5 stars Much improved   March 8, 2010
Don Evans (Lafayette, CA United States)
I have used Quicken and QuickBooks for many years, always with a wish that they would improve this or that. Well, the 2010 version has it all! Rapid downloads from numerous financial institutions, well sorted out reports, easy manipulation. The only thing I could ask is that they allow users to manage the order of columns and the ability to get rid of some and add others. In all, a very good product.


5 out of 5 stars A must to track your budget   March 7, 2010
P. Greco (Alpharetta, GA United States)
I've been using quicken for the past 10 years and this version is much better than past releases. I really like the intergration with online banks, credit cards, stock firms, 401k and Turbo Tax. In fact it made doing my taxes even easier. I would get it...its much better then [...]


5 out of 5 stars Good product   March 4, 2010
Donald E. Null (Denver, MO)
I have used Quicken for many years. Although I think it is a rip to have to upgrad every 3 years, I can't fault this product.


1 out of 5 stars 2010 is a de-grade rather than an up-grade from 2009   February 27, 2010
midsummermagic11 (California USA)
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I paid $100 to upgrade from 2009 to 2010 and am sorely disappointed (putting it mildly). I do not normally write reviews..

The 2010 upgrade is more like a degrade. Several key features were taken away.
* The bill Calendar no longer has the balances. If you want to see the running balance totals you have to open a separate window that you have to close before you do anything else. This is real annoying for those who got used to the tab in the 2009 version (I regretfully gave away when I purchased this degrade). I like to go back and forth from the check register and the calendar so I can see how my balances are affected as I enter my receipts.
* The check register no longer has balance totals when sorted by "cleared status". This is a Big Problem because you have to now use a calculator if you like to match your transactions with the bank and see if your balance is square in between statements.
* If you want to use the new Spending Tracker (the main reason I paid $100 to upgrade) you better be sure you don't use subcategories because those categories will not total under the parent category.

EXAMPLE:
-------------------
Household (Budget $100)
- Laundry
- Paper Products
- Toiletries
-------------------
So if, say, you have a category labeled Household and underneath household you have the subcategories: laundry, paper products, & toiletries. Since this is a personal finance program you probably want to budget the money that is left over after paying your bills and living expenses so you can live comfortably within your means. In general you like to allocate about $100 for your monthly household expenses.

Unfortunately, you cannot track the entire Household group as one. Quicken makes you split your $100 among your various subcategories. The totals that will be tracked for "Household" will be only the transactions that you did not choose a subcategory. It cannot track the TOTAL spent (ie. Laundry + Paper Products + Toiletries). So you must make a separate budget for Laundry ($20), Paper Products ($40), and Toiletries($40) and track them separately.

The above example is impossible, your budget must look like this instead:
-------------------
Household
- Laundry (Budget $20)
- Paper Products (Budget $40)
- Toiletries (Budget $40)
-------------------

This is Totally Worthless because a lot of times I know in general I spend about this much in Household.. but the distribution varies much more than the total and this is why I have a general budget with 8 envelopes of cash, not 30!

(*Note: using tags instead of subcategories is not a fix to this problem because tags are meant to be used for unique categories that don't fit in your normal linear structure and I like my subcategories to appear in my reports)

I am hoping somewhere Quicken is listening.. so far customer support has just thrown a bunch of copied off answers from their manual on how to reply to genuinely pissed off people...



2 out of 5 stars Not so good.   February 27, 2010
Harry A. Hartley (Mountain View, CA United States)
Well, there is some error when I try to download from E-Trade. Not a big deal, errors happen, and they are usually my fault. But the really frustrating thing is that I can never really see the error as it is not displayed in the One Step Update Summary screen. Again... probably something I can figure out, but still... shouldn't have to mess with these types of errors especially since I was very happy as a 2007 user.

BUT! The worst part of my experience has been dealing with Quicken Tech Support. I spent easily 45 minutes on the phone and the support person was still asking me what my problem was. And they clearly had no clue what I was talking about or how the product works. HORRIBLE SUPPORT!

As far as the new UI goes, I like some of the summaries that are displayed, but the navigation from account to account, or where you find things like setup seem kind of awkward. Almost as if someone were redesigning just for the sake of a redesign. 2007 was very functional to me. Some of the things that I could do in a mouse click or two in 2007 now takes a lot more clicks and seems kind of confusing.
