    4 out of 5 stars Great Product   September 1, 2008
    Michael V. Hansen (Bountiful, Utah)
    I really like how organized I have become with this program. My only grip is that there is a lot to learn up front and its not exactly fool proof. other than that i really like this program.


    5 out of 5 stars Best Money Management program ever   August 30, 2008
    C. Brior (Pennsylvania)
    Quicken is easy to set up, easy to use, and packed with lots of neat features. I am still exploring all of the things this great program does. Don't miss the budgeting part. I now know where my money is going and where I can take control. And balancing a check book has never been easier.


    3 out of 5 stars Forced To Upgrade   August 25, 2008
    T. Truex (Boca Raton)
    I purchase this upgrade because I recently got a patch from from Intuit to "upgrade" my version of Quicken. When it did, it broke the ability for me to download information from my banks. (if you have Quicken 2005 or before, it would no longer support the ability to download your statements directly into Quicken) this was HUGE for me. I have been on quicken for almost 10 years but I was so mad I looked at switching to MS Money. But after calming down, I decided to just go ahead and fork over the money for the new one. (I was very happy with Quicken 2005)

    Well it installed fine, but it appears that I do not have the history going back as far as I had.

    I did have backups of my data, but I did not do one just before this new install that updates the database. Lesson learned... make a backup just before new install.



    5 out of 5 stars What a relief!   August 24, 2008
    Jaycee (Portland)
    The 5-star rating is given because my requirements for this kind of software are few. I have used Quicken since 1995.

    I have been using Quicken 2002 since it came out(checking/savings only) and found it perfect for my limited needs.. the only problem I experienced was getting my back up done on a CD disk (Quicken 2002 just wouldn't recognize the drive) forcing me to use floppys in my A-drive to get that function done. When I bought a new computer I planned for this contingency and ordered an A-drive to be part of the total package. But lately my error messages from Quicken in terms of backing up on that drive have becoming more and more frequent.. I finally bought a new copy of Quicken (Deluxe 2008) despite some very negative reviews and installed it yesterday. The installation was seamless, a great relief to me.. the ROM drive was at long last recognized by the software, and the format, while a little changed, was still recognizable; all my backup files from 1995 loaded without a problem after the process uninstalled my 2002 version. You can "date" each backup so you can recognize at a glance the most current version you've saved. All in all, a very satisfying experience.. I wish I hadn't waited so long to re-purchase the Quicken, since I'm left with an A-drive I'll never use!



    5 out of 5 stars Working Great   August 24, 2008
    Friends Fab Fan
    I had the 99 version and it finally fried. This one is working great so far. Hope it lasts at least as long as the 99 version. :)
