Quicken - Classic Deluxe 1-Year Subscription - Mac OS, Windows, Android, Apple iOS

Great price. About half of what Intuit wants for the same thing.

I'm a repeat user, so pretty much hooked on Quicken. I like how easy it makes managing my personal finances, by making answers to tax questions a matter of running a report and answering questions on "when did we?" or "how much was?" so easy. I DO wish that it was easier to tie in my investment accounts to download current market values and transactions. Still haven't been able to manage that.

I am a long term user of Quicken. Just like everyone else, I am angry about Quicken now forcing you to subscribe every year in order to use their on line tools. The For me, I really only use the one step update to download quotes and investment information. I didn't mind upgrading the program every 3 years. But to pay what they want every year just for this service is frustrating to put it mildly. Before I made a switch to another program (Empower, for instance), I saw Qucken Classic one year subscription on sale at Best Buy. It was important that the product description for what I bought did not say "for new users" (others do). Also, it was not a digital download but a physical box that I picked up in store. The box did not contain a CD as in the past however. I did succesfully upgrade my subscription for one more year simply by opening the existing version on my PC and, at the top where it said my membership had expired, I clicked on "Activate". This took me through the steps to enter the one-time-use activation code that came on a piece of cardboard inside the box. After I entered the code, I received a green check mark, I clicked on "Activate Membership" and all seems to be working. I verified by updating the program (which I had not done in over a month) and viewing Help->manage my subscription. It shows I now have another year. Sorry for long review, but I wanted to outline the steps to confirm to other users such as me that this activation path works so you can purchase a new one year subscription while on sale.

I've been using Quicken for nearly 30 years and it's a solid product excellent for keeping close track of all your financials. The desktop version for Windows has a ton of features for tracking and reporting and functions well even with a huge data file. I wish the MAC version came closer to the Windows version though....and I could do without the new subscription-based pricing.

Been using for many many years. Best I can find for my personal banking. Wish price was lower. Seemed to rise considerably yearly. No great "specials". Don't need all the extras. Would love just basic downloading on financial banking,
