Customer Ratings & Reviews

The software works, better price upgrading to Premier is less than renewing deluxe directly with quicken current subscription.

Good price on 1 yr subscription to Quicken. Much cheaper than Quicken charges for auto-renewal

I used to use Microsoft Money for years but due to avalibility I started using Quicken for my banking and investment tracking. It is a bit quirky in that sometimes it has issues connecting to my accounts. Maybe its the financial institutions fault. It also has fairly frequent updates...thats fine for keeping security up to date. Sometimes have issues with the wrong accout information dowloading into my register about a transaction so some manual adjustments are needed but at least I don't have to enter all of the transactions manually. Overall does the job with room for improvement.

I have used H & R Block Deluxe version since 2016, when I switched from Turbo Tax (used from 2008 to 2015) due to Turbo Tax moving some investment components to a pricier version, which I felt was not worth the added cost. I have been very happy with H & R Block over the years but I have run into one or two issues where it didn’t work correctly but there was always an update that fixed the problem. Once software is installed you just start and it will walk you thru authorizing it, etc. Since I had used H & R block previously it was easy to import the prior year’s tax info. When I switched from Turbo Tax 2016 it also imported my TT tax info from prior year with no issues – so if you are looking to switch it should be pretty painless. You can have the software import your W-2’s and financial info – which I have tried in prior years with varying degrees of success. I have found that just typing in manually works better for me. The software walks you thru every part of the tax form – asking you questions as you go as to what may or may not apply to you. While this can get tedious it has made me remember some things I had forgotten about to be included. It will give you a running total of your federal tax amount as you fill out the forms. Once completed it will go over everything and highlight any areas of concern that may need more info. Once that is all good it will run a “test” as to completeness and your audit chances. Once all is good it will ask you to indicate your state to be downloaded and once selected/installed it walks you thru your states return in same fashion as federal. Once state is completed it runs one more completeness and audit check. If all is good you have the option to e-file federal and/or state. What you may not be aware of if you have never e-filled before, is you can pick the date to pay if you owe. If you file in February you can set a date for funds to come directly from your account anytime from then until 4/15. Overall, I would recommend H & R Block software especially in a price comparison with competitor options. Just be sure you get the version that fits your financial needs.

If you want Quicken to perform certain basic functions (i.e., downloading financial transactions) you need to have an active subscription. Purchasing this product provides a subscription for one year. Also, instead of renewing your subscription thru Quicken, you can keep your service active by using the activation code within this box for that purpose. If timing is right, you don't need to pay full price thru Quicken. Wait for it to come on sale.

Bought to renew my subscription. Just entered the activation code on the card included card.

Quicken offers a lot of features that other finance software or online software does not. However, I feel price to be high, and also, there are a lot of bugs with the software. Still use though, no better alternative.

Quicken is a good financial package for individuals. I have been using it for years.

I've been a Quicken user for over 20 years and I really can't imagine personal finance without it. It has helped me organize all my checking, savings, investments, and retirement accounts. Because of the direct download of transactions from my banks, it makes it very easy to track and manage all of it. I wasn't crazy about the subscription change but ultimately I think it's providing funding to keep maintaining the product, and the support has been very good so far.

I have used Quicken since 1994. It has provided everything I've needed to support my investments, savings, loans, mortgages, and checking accounts as well as supporting my retirement planning, savings planning and budgeting. I preferred the old purchase every 3 years option but understand the need for annual subscriptions to be able to maintain the software. I have not found any other single software that covers everything I use Quicken Premier for.

I have used Quicken Premiere since the 1990s. It haall the features I need in a personal financial management tool and then some. One key attribute is that Quicken lets you store your data where YOU want it, not in a propriety database under their control. (It does provide online storage if you want it, but I like to keep info where I control it.) Plenty of tools to track all your accounts, and the option to use a smartphone app (with a limited store of recent data) so you can keep tracking your money on the go. But again, you control which acvounts interface with the smartphone app. You can choose to download account data from your bank and broker websites, or if you're on the paranoid side, you can do it all with manual transaction entries and reconciling your accounts with paper statements. My only problem with Quicken is that they transitioned to a software-as-a-Service model a few years ago. In the past, you could buy a license that would be supported for at least 3 years. Now you must subscribe annually, or you lose many key usability features. That is why I give it 4 stars instead of 5.

It doesn't cover everything we would like it to. It needs a little updating.

I was easily able to use the authorization code contained inside the package to extend/renew the Quicken membership that was getting ready to expire.

I might have given this four stars, but the learning curve from my 2015 edition to this one has been challenging. I have found the built in help topics to less helpful than querying information from the internet.

Been using Quicken for years and have all my finances on this software. Quicken does have a few quirks, but I don't see any other solution to track and manage all my accounts elsewhere. I was able to extend my subscription for 1 year using this purchase.

Still have issues at times when connecting to banks for download but still am pleased.

I don't like that I have to buy this every year. But if you don't then you can't down load bank and credit card data. It mostly works well, but be prepared for days that the downloads don't work. And if you do anything in the investment area, Quicken can have difficult time making the exact transaction. I have been using Quicken since it was invented. So I am a very experienced user. If you want to get the value out of Quicken for more than a check register, you have to get at least the Premier version

If you are already not a long-time Quicken user, I would recommend not getting started with Quicken because it is now a subscription service so you are forced to upgrade every year if you want to download transactions.

I have used Quicken for many years. Like the ease of downloading transactions into the Quicken register for bank accounts and credit card accounts. Reporting of income and expenses is very useful especially for year end tax reporting. One issue I have found is that you can have issues with the download functionality if your credit card is comprised and a new number is issued. Best to have the Quicken support staff help when this happens.

Best financial software out there for setting up a Budget, tracking investments, etc. Easy to use.
