    Good Program, but subscription model (& cost) not

    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.

    Great way to track your financial activities. Easy to use. Would be better if they sold the software instead of requiring an annual subscription.

    Quicken is the old standby for keeping track of household finances. My only beef is the yearly cost of admission. If you are locked in to the ecosystem it would be nice if the yearly subscription were lower. I tend to wait till I can find it on sale and then buy it since it saves a few bucks.

    I have used this software for over 25 years. What I will say is that I dont like the annual subscription fee. Customer service works hard but in my personal experience, my issues were not easily resolved. I continue to utilize Quicken because i am familiar and the fits my needs but i may explore other options in the future.

    Easy to order and fair price. What I don't understand is why Best Buy does not provide a digital code via email to open this program. I waited almost a week to get the package in the mail only to get the code, but no disk.

    It's a good product and we've been using it for years, but ever since they switched to a subscription model, I don't think it's a good deal. Unfortunately there are no decent alternatives anymore ever since Microsoft stopped selling MS Money years ago. If I had to start over I'd use one of the online products that cost less. A lot of the features are hard to use and understand (like investment tracking)

    I needed some help with setting up a home budget and more closely watching my spending habits. There are lots of online "free" options but most seemed very cumbersome and not very user friendly. So far, although I'm still setting things up, Quicken seems like a good alternative option, particularly when the software is on sale. I was very disappointed in the delivery time, however, as it took well over a week for this item to be shipped to my local store and it turned out to only be a digital code. That code could have been emailed at point of purchase just like with Amazon instead of actually mailing a cardboard box with only another piece of cardboard inside.

    An Able Budgeting Tool

    I have used Quicken for years to budget and track expenses. I do not link to bank accounts or credit cards but one could. I buy the new annual in order to get a nicer view but it can be used after annual expires if you want to put up with the ads - it is annoying that Quicken now does that. Otherwise I would use the same version for a few years.

    Still faithful to the program after 33 years

    Best Buy is the only place I buy Quicken from. The discounts plus any rewards collected make keeping the program up-to-date worth while. As a program, it doesn't do well over multiple devices - desktop, laptop, app on phone, and online. The data can get skewed or corrupted if too many places access and update. Best to have a primary and a secondary for input. Use any other source for reference only.

    Have been using this to keep track of my bank and credit card transactions. Helps to find the restaurant you like years back. Helps to generate reports on spend categories. Have been using it for last 15 years with every 3-5 years upgrade. Now with yearly service its a bit expensive but no competitor option available.
