Domain Name Com's - Software : Quicken 2008 Home & Business [OLD VERSION]

- Can't do without it!
I've used Quicken for years now and have gone through several versions. I've never had the problems that other users have mentioned in the reviews. I use it for both my personal and business finances, and I can't imagine doing without it. Definitely recommend, and I have no desire to switch to another competing software!

- run away, run far far away
I should have listened to the other reviews on this one. I'm still a fan of turbotax, and thought, hey this should work well with it, but was I ever wrong. Fundamentally the product has the right features and reports but it just doesn't tally well, which is after all what financial software is supposed to do. I have spent 10-15 hours just trying to get a couple of accounts to tally accurately and they never do. Its not by some large margin, but a couple hundred bucks here and there and you start to lose trust in the accounting application's fundamental capabilities. At this point I'm resigned to use it account approximately and report on "roughly" the right numbers but that really just isn't good enough for what is supposed to be basic accounting software.
One example of a bug, on credit cards from MBNA it doesn't download the interest charged, and won't let you manually put the number in when you try an reconcile.

Anyway, I would recommend people steer clear of this bloatware. You'd be better of just using excel.

- The Blue Screen of Death Generator
After much deliberation, I upgraded from the very stable MSMoney to Quicken 2008 Home and Business. It works fine when it works, featurewise, not a whole lot diferent from comparable MSMoney version. Except for this nasty feature: As you work along in quicken, quicken decides it is time to reboot your PC, so you get the infamous windows Blue Screen and pop, you are rebooting, whether you like it or not.

Support is useless, unless you want to pay to train their support staff and do the Quality Assurance and Testing on their product. Big mistake, now I have to re-convert everything back to MS Money.

- Nice Features But Unusable Due to Bugs
Avoid this software at all costs. I'm a long term Quicken user (15+ years) and, though they keep adding nice features in terms of reports, views and tools, they are unusable due to problems like the software using up 100% of the P.C.'s CPU without ever letting up. When certain views are selected, the CPU will go to 100%, with Quicken being the culprit, and it never lets go. Only terminating the process by way of the Task Manager is your only lifeline. Even then, it seems that Quicken leaves the P.C. in a bad state. I've only had this problem with Home & Business 2008.

I do have to agree with the other reviewers in that there are other quirks that leave you feeling less than confident about how Quicken handles your financial data. This was never the case with version from the 90's. They've tried to add too many features and have given little attention to software quality.

If you are thinking about this software for the first time - forget it! If you have a migration path away from it - take it!

- Pain in the rear to get started. Need accounting background...
I have a small photography business and use this to keep books.

Takes some serious effort to get started and the help files are worthless for understanding how to set things up.

Get a good book on accounting and you should be okay.

CONCLUSION:
Takes some work but is an okay solution.
