Quote Server Unavailable

From: "Don in San Antonio"

| Is it just my imagination or does the Quicken Quote Server have problems | every time there's a big jump in the market?

It looks that way !

Yup!

Yup!

It's probably overloaded from everyone checking their portfolio values.

No. That's its objective. Every so often, the quote servers go down fot several hours to a full day. I haven't seen them go down for more than one day.

Yup, that's the objective in an ideal world.

However, that does not mean that Intuit has enough servers to handle the load. Intuit could just take the approach that they will handle the load up to 95% of the peak, after that they do not care.

Your erroneous presumption is that Intuit cares about the problem. Time and time again, Intuit has shown how little they care about their Quicken customers.

You are right. The Quicken company SUCKS !

However, the quote servers appear to be provisioned for their load well.

So quit bitching already and switch to MS Money.

P.S. *OR* MAYBE Quicken is so MUCH better than the competition, it's worth the occasional aggravation.
