Over the last few months, I've seen numerous posts about the data being transmitted from Intuit to your Quicken accounts. Apparently, NO ONE is LISTENING! Tonight, I had to manual upgrade five securities. It's sad that YAHOO can get the quotes right thirty minutes after the markets close.
Since 1992 I have religiously upgraded my Quicken. Knowing full well there was not that much difference between the previous year and the new year's edition. 2008 is different. Since Intuit chooses not to listen to our voices, maybe they'll pay attention to bottom line. THE PRODUCT HAS LOST IT'S RELIABILITY! I will NOT upgrade to the 2008 edition.
Next, speaking of of Intuit revenue, do you realize that if you download information from your bank, you are paying a monthly service charge. The monthly charge is $5.95. It's not that difficult to manual enter your transactions. Plus, how reliable is the data being entered for you? And yes, the reason for the monthly charge is to pay for the service! You can bet financial institutions are paying royalites to both Intuit (Quicken) and Microsoft (Money).
Hopefully when sales decrease, someone will finally understand why! Product quality has gone down the tubes.
Done typing, done buying annual s/w upgrades and done paying monthly bank fees for a product I have to review DAILY for accuracy!!
