4 out of 5 stars good product   November 12, 2008
 1 out of 3 found this review helpful

The only reason I gave this only 4 stars is because I found it a bit difficult to use right out of the box. I used Money for so many years that I found Quicken a bit confusing a first. Made many errors in the beginning. Quicken help desk is great which I would give them 5 stars.


5 out of 5 stars Worth the Money to Upgrade, Even from Deluxe 2008   November 8, 2008
 1 out of 4 found this review helpful

I recently upgraded to Quicken Deluxe 2009 from the 2008 version of the same product. I have no regrets, and believe it was well-worth the money. I find the program works smoother and faster for me than 2008. Converting my data files was a snap, and I have experienced no problems downloading transactions from my bank. Not purchasing Quicken 2009 immediately upon release may account for my lack of issues with it. I always wait until my bank insures compatibility with a new version before I buy it. The delay also gives Intuit time to correct any bugs that existed initially.

The graphics are fresher and brighter for 2009. The task bar is a welcome addition. Navigating through the program is easier than in previous versions.

If you use personal financial software several times each day, as I do, then this upgrade is easily worth the price in the improvements present. If you are considering Quicken for the first time, I am aware of no other financial management package that comes to close to the quality and features found here.



1 out of 5 stars Quicken quagmire   November 5, 2008
 4 out of 4 found this review helpful

I have used Quicken for longer than I can remember. The most recent version was 2004 Deluxe on a Windows XP Home SP3 PC, and I made a grievous mistake when I blindly chose to buy Quicken Deluxe 2009 for my new Windows Vista Ultimate SP1 PC. My condolences to the folks troubled by transaction download problems. Quicken Deluxe 2009 is an obnoxiously gimmicky and propagandized interface that foists numerous links to Intuit products and services which distract from the use of the software. It stubbornly ignores stored preferences. Its backup fails capriciously. It stores memorized transactions like a deranged hoarder. Quicken's technical support staff make long-maligned DMV clerks look like five-star waiters. If I am lucky enough to get through to a live (leaving definitions of life aside for now) chat agent, they eclipse the ability of teenagers to procrastinate, misunderstand and break away. Email support offers an equally courteous and misguided approach to problem resolution. Blame the Vista OS and reinstall the program after scrubbing the hard drive with a belt sander are the preferred responses, usually after deciding that my stated backup hard drive is a CD drive and my carefully worded questions are unworthy of direct response. This product and its service are disgraceful.


1 out of 5 stars 1 Star is probably too generous   October 30, 2008
 2 out of 5 found this review helpful

I've used Quicken for personal finances for 12+ yrs. It always worked OK despite occasional bugs. It ALWAYS downloaded transactions from my VISA card bank and other banks. To me this is the most important feature of Quicken. My current version is Quicken 2008 Deluxe. After we had to switch to Chase VISA this summer, I was successful at downloading transactions from within Quicken only once. I've tried using their suggested work-around (go to Chase and download from there). That option worked once or twice, then quit. For the past 6 months, I have used the Windows VISTA operating system. I'm sure this is part of Quicken's problem, but not much I can do about that.

I have regularly upgraded the software in hopes of getting around problems, but after reading the reviews here, I'm not upgrading to 2009 any time soon. It looks like I am stuck entering transactions by hand for the foreseeable future. Any suggestions will be appreciated--ALOT!!



5 out of 5 stars Quicken..Does it matter?   October 30, 2008

For the last 10 yr's I've been using Quicken 99, Then decieded to up-grade to Quicken 2009.
At first I thought " Oh No What Have I done! "...Thinking I'd loose everything I had in Quicken 99 When I switched-over to Quicken 2009.
But the transition was as smooth as silk, Quicken 2009 brought everything over from Quicken 99, with (NO) problems.
If you are using an Older vesion of Quicken...Please Up - grade now, you will not be sorry, Like anything that looks different, It takes some getting used to, I was up and running in Apx.20 min. Although it took me 2 days to get the hang of it(part-time) Computer user...It is so very worth it.
