Good. I use it everyday and find it very useful. I use it for day to day as well as monthly bill pay and budgeting. I use it on the business and professional level. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 3/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 3/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros That evening is organized,there are many options,categories and graphics showing your budget,balances etc. #### Cons Glitches. Sometimes, when there's an update, it does not automatically pull the data. I have found that happens and i dint enen know it. Updates from the bank or credit cards dont happen. This can be days weeks or months that you miss pending.On how much time has lapsed since you realized it.And then you have to put things in manually. #### Reasons for switching to Quicken Easier to use more seamless more customizable. --- ### 2 decade happy user - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Bruce B. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Financial Services - Company size: Self-Employed - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: December 2025 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. I’ve used for 20 years and would not change unless a better product comes along. I have not seen any better alternatives yet. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Daily updates of transactions and values gives me a good idea of my finances and give me peace of mind #### Cons Somewhat antiquated and website doesn’t work well. I still use the desktop application which works well but an online experience would be nice --- ### Quicken Review - Overall rating: 3/5 - Reviewer: ERIN S. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Real Estate - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used monthly for more than 2 years - Reviewed: July 2026 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered I have no complaints about Quicken. It met our needs for a time. It was cost effective for what we needed it for. Thankfully I did not need any customer support, so I can't speak to that. Keepting track and records of the accounts was mostly intuitive and easy to navigate within the software. We are a small homeowner's association and don't need something too robust. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 3/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 3/5 #### Pros Data entry into Quicken feels pretty easy. I like the variety of reports that can be generated for various tracking of accounts. #### Cons Creating invoices felt like a very manual process and I didn't know how to easily roll over information from one year to another while also creating new invoices. --- ### All the columns add up in Quicken for your needs! - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Rosanne R. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Health, Wellness and Fitness - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for more than 2 years - Reviewed: May 2026 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. We really enjoyed working with Quicken. But there were times when it felt very overwhelming for the size of our business. But you can''t be too organized when working with your own finances and Quicken comes through for us every time! #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros What I enjoy most about Quicken is its depth of services and resources. It's a wonderful program for small businesses to use, and there is little training needed to manage your invoices, view reports, especially for tax purposes and payment processing. It's a very comprehensive program for the value that you pay and is a great investment whether you work with an independent accountant, or reply on customer support to help guide you overt the bumps. #### Cons While it is a great program, one does have to balance its price with your day-to-day operations. That can feel prohibited for a small business just starting. That is probably the most obvious reasons for hesitation to use this program. --- ### Super Useful for Family Finances & Budgets - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Raegan D. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Accounting - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for more than 2 years - Reviewed: September 2025 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. I use Quicken to aggregate all my personal financial accounts so I can quickly work my family budget. I no longer have to log into several different sites to see current balances or recent transactions. I also like that you can manually add assets that are paid in full already to give true net worth estimates. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros I love that I can access Quicken Simplifi via the app on my phone or via the website. I also really appreciate that my bank, credit card, and liability accounts can all be linked so the data is aggregated into Quicken for me. #### Cons The only con I have is that some accounts that require authentication or regular password changes get disconnected from the app because of this. Not really a fault of the software but still an inconvenience. #### Reasons for switching to Quicken Mint.com was shut down in 2024 leaving users forced to find an alternative. --- ### Quicken, my experience. - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Verified Reviewer - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Investment Management - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for more than 2 years - Reviewed: September 2025 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Have used it for many, many years. Would love to see them develop the program further with Android full suit access. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 3/5 - Functionality: 3/5 #### Pros Reliability Ease of transaction entry Charts and graphs, downloads of transaction, property and debt calculations. #### Cons Web access is not the best. Software seems to work best when on main computer, not remotely. Web App is very basic. #### Reasons for choosing Quicken Familiarity of product and commonality of users. --- ### Lifetime of Disappointment - Overall rating: 2/5 - Reviewer: Michael A. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Automotive - Company size: 201-500 employees - Product usage: Used monthly for more than 2 years - Reviewed: May 2025 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered Overall, for the past 35 years it has been extremely underwhelming. Specialty import situations, jacked up investments downloads (gave that up long ago). No undo (really?). So Why can't I just use a CSV? Do they think that is a way to increase profits? Maybe for existing users, but for anyone who will listen DO NOT GET YOUR FINANCIAL RECORDS STARTED ON QUICKEN! ANY other software but quicken. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 3/5 - Customer support: 1/5 - Functionality: 1/5 #### Pros Has qfx connector exports in most financial ends of websites. Lots of features auto sorting, renaming #### Cons Without a qfx connector, you might as well find another finacial service supplier, or enter everything by hand. No UNDO (really?). No standard data import available such as .csv, .txt, or any non-proprietary format. #### Reasons for switching to Quicken I needed more functionality. I do not appreciate being told how many characters to type. --- ### Using Quicken to manage your rental property - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Dee B. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Real Estate - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for more than 2 years - Reviewed: June 2025 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Makes managing my rental property a breeze. You can download most of your transaction from both banks and cards. With little work you can categorize each transaction (create custom categories) on your own time. At any time, you can create a "Custom Report" to see if all the tenants have paid their rent or see what you have spent in the last year on any unit. Great tool!!!! #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros Makes tax time easy! Makes managing my rental property a breeze. You Can easily create custom reports to analyze your fanatical situation. #### Cons It takes a bit of time to customize the categories to be able to create simple reports to find the information that you need, but when you are done the time was well worth the effort! #### Reasons for choosing Quicken Ease of use, ability to customize to my situation and ability to like to my bank and cards --- ### Quicken Finances Organized - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Marsha L. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Hospitality - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for less than 2 years - Reviewed: July 2026 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

Great tool for bill tracking, budgeting and cash flow. Great for rental business finances. #### Cons I don't like that Quicken is a paid subscription.

Overall it was a good experience for the ease of inputting information and the price. It just did not do everything that I needed it to. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 3/5 #### Pros The value for the price. Compared to other accounting software - it is much more cost effective. #### Cons For a small business it was missing some key components like payroll. Only have 1 employee but payroll is a must. #### Reasons for choosing Quicken Cost was the main factor and it had been recommended by a friend. #### Reasons for switching to Quicken Trying to save money but in the end having to go back to quickbooks for the features. Kept Quicken for home use. --- ### Simplicity with Quicken - Overall rating: 3/5 - Reviewer: Deborah M. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Non-Profit Organization Management - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years - Reviewed: October 2024 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

No incentive was offered I use Quicken for both personal and business purposes and find that it has a broad use of categories and accounts to handle both. I have been using Quicken since its inception 40+ years ago and find it useful on a daily basis as well as monthly and tax related reports. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Quicken is a versatile personal finance application that covers something as simple as checking and savings account record keeping to more complex accounts such as credit card, investment and mortgage accounts. It can generate reports and graphs to provide a complete picture of one's personal finances. #### Cons To the best of my knowledge Quicken is only available on a subscription basis. In the past one could purchase upgrades as they were released or wait a year to purchase when more features were available. --- ### Quicken from a Person who is not techie - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Debbie N. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Health, Wellness and Fitness - Company size: Self-Employed - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: January 2023 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically.

No incentive was offered If I could give less than 1 star I would! I have been a huge supporter of Quicken in the past. I encouraged my kids and clients and anyone that would listen to use Quicken. Sorry! I have now gone to using my online banking bill pay through my bank which is free! #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 1/5 - Value for money: 1/5 - Customer support: 1/5 - Functionality: 1/5 #### Pros This used to be a great product! I have used it since 1993 to track my business finances and investments. It really helps at tax time. #### Cons Support is worse than non-existent. It is March 8th and I have been trying to get support since the first week in January. I was on the phone with a rep for 2 hours trying to get bill pay to work. I was told to hang on I need to ask my manager about that and then hung up on. I tried chatting and was told that you cannot use chat for online bill pay. Called the support number and was told that there is a special number for online bill pay. I called that number and was told by the rep that I needed to go to quickenbillpay.com but he would stay on the line and would call me back if I got disconnected. That was a week ago. Still havent gotten at call. Went through the insutructions on the quickenbillpay.com website to set up a new account and it indicated it would take 2 -3 days to set up an account and I would receive 2 transactions on my bank statement from them. Check my statement and then come back and enter those figures to confirm I own the account. That was 6 days ago and still no transactions. Yesterday I received an email that I must send in 1. My drivers License. 2. My Social Security Card. 3. my most recent utility bill from water, gas, or electric company only. 4. A voided check from each account I want to use. Sounds like an internet scam to me. I called quicken and explained I wasn't comfortable sending all of this over the internet and by the way I have been paying for your services for 25 years and now you want all of this info. Their response is quicken was sold and that they are a new company and they have to have the info or no bill pay services! No wonder they bill pay services are now included in the Premier package. No one can use it! The bad part is I have all of my payments for cars, houses, utilities, credit cards set up for auto pay using quicken bill pay. Now I have to find another way to get them paid because it has taken 2 months and I still am not set up for bill pay. By the way they don't tell you this is what happens when you download Quicken 2018. Beware! --- ### 30-Year Quicken User - Overall rating: 2/5 - Reviewer: Peter M. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Computer Software - Company size: Self-Employed - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: February 2021 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered Intuit is so exploitive, that I would actually consider them to be immoral and I have tried many times to move to a different product, but they make it very difficult. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 1/5 - Value for money: 2/5 - Customer support: 1/5 - Functionality: 2/5 #### Pros Of the personal finance managers, Quicken is probably the best. Other packages at or below this cost lack a majority of their features and in order to get them, you would have to upgrade to a much more expensive package, so it is at a price sweet spot. #### Cons I've been using Quicken since 1992 and consider myself quite familiar with the package. The Quicken business model is and always has been exploitive and has been adding and subtracting features for years in an attempt to always have a new product to sell. Their current subscription model is no different. However, they never improve the product. There are bugs still there that have been there since the 90's. They're reports and windows do not zoom. They do not use Windows conventions, for example keystrokes. When working properly, it provides a lot of value, but it is very easy to introduce errors into the data and impossible to fix them. Their customer support is an absolute joke. It's normally a 40-minute queue to talk to an idiot and they are so propaganda driven, that they delete any negative posts or reviews from their sites and their forum. They purposely obstruct you from transferring to their competitors. I myself have had to purchase 7 versions of the program since 2000 and that's BEFORE they moved to a subscription model. Every release introduces more bugs, but they make it impossible to freeze a particular version, constantly cutting off web access and they have Upgrade Nags constantly that you can't get rid of. And they are entirely shameless about it. --- ### A great tool for any small business or nonprofit - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Teresa S. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Non-Profit Organization Management - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for more than 2 years - Reviewed: December 2022 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Quicken is great in my experience, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a program that is easy to learn, user-friendly, and not cumbersome. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros Quicken provides all the tools that many small businesses and most small nonprofits would need to track their expenses and to provide reporting to different departments. It's very user-friendly and easy to learn, but can get quite messed up if the data going in is not entered appropriately. Trust me on that one!The reports are simple to run, and provide all of the information that I have needed in a small nonprofit. #### Cons I really don't have complaints about Quicken for the youth and the reports that I need it for. I'm sure that a larger company would not find it appropriate but for a smaller one it is perfect because the price is right, it's easy to use, and it's easy for reporting. --- ### User since the 1990's - Overall rating: 2/5 - Reviewer: Craig A. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Retail - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: June 2023 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered Since late 2022 it has been horrible. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 3/5 - Functionality: 1/5 #### Pros I have always liked how easy it was to learn and use Quicken. Getting started is easy. #### Cons In the last year Quicken changed their product so it only works on one computer. I have used Quicken for over a decade with OneDrive as the main storage for the database and more recently my own personal server. This made using Quicken essential for travel between my office, my home and on my laptop during travel outside the country or on family vacation.Quicken no longer allows this type of functionality and only allows you to store the main database on a local 'C' drive. Yes, you can copy and paste the database onto another computer (if you remember to do so before leaving), but then you need to re-sign into all your financial institutions. Unfortunately, the product is no longer business friendly and has rolled back to twentieth century technology when people only had one computer to use.Why programmers made this horrible decision is beyond me since almost everything has moved to cloud based programming or allows you to store and use a database from an online storage platform. --- ### Excellent for Blended families and small business - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Grant Bentley T. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: E-Learning - Company size: Self-Employed - Product usage: Used daily for less than 6 months - Reviewed: February 2024 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered My only issue getting started was 'Adding' an account. Followed every step to frustration almost cancelling subscription. Finally I phoned customer service and they were amazing! Took over screen and walked me through. Ended up being my display on the Mac, once corrected worked great! #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros For $80 Cdn / year this is a fantastic program for blended families with multiple sources of income and complicated expenditures that require organizing. As a lay financial planner, with a rental property and a second marriage, I have spent way too much time trying to organize the finances. What has taken me literally days to do on a spreadsheet has taken me 3 or 4 hours on Quicken. Monthly expenditures and small business management will likely take me 2 to 3 hours a month now, at most. Once you organize your Transaction Payees into Categories (a few hours the first time) you never need to do that step again! Spending charts / pie graphs are clear and 'quickly' ... you know where the money is going, almost to the moment. The program was super easy to show my wife how it works and unnecessary stressors have been eliminated. #### Cons I say almost because transactions from the bank are not simultaneously dropped into your application. Even if you update the account (refresh) it can take time for the new transactions to show up. Apparently the web app doesn't have this issue but the downloaded desk top version does. For me, no issue, but for someone who requires immediate updates it might be a problem. --- ### Quicken..
