1 out of 5 stars If you don't have to upgrade, wait until they fix it!   June 15, 2007
 6 out of 8 found this review helpful

I was forced to buy Q2007 as Intuit quit supporting the version I owned. Nothing has impressed me as being an improvement. And of course the switching costs (like time getting up the learning curve) were annoying. On this basis I would have rated it a 3 star.

However, I gave it a 1 because printing does not work. Everytime I try to print, preview, or print setup, the program shuts down. There is nothing wrong with my printers or drivers (besides working with every other program on my computer they worked with the previous version of Quicken). After spending a couple of hours troubleshooting, I discovered from Quicken's bulletin board that this is a known common problem, which Intuit has yet to provide a fix. Do they no longer have a quality control department?

I have been using both Quicken and Quickbooks for several years and decided to try Quicken 2007 Home and Business and have been very impressed with the functionality and ease of use with this new version. I would highly recommend this program to anyone who wants to track their income and expenses, investments and business. It is very easy to use and a very powerful tool for tracking all of your finances. Good Job Intuit!


1 out of 5 stars don't trust it!   June 4, 2007

pretty to look at, but it does not calculate cd's, spin-off's, or special dividends correctly. overall, the investment section cannot be relied upon for accurate accounting. and to top it off, you have to put up with advertising and zero support too!
crapware

I just bought a new computer with AMD dual core processor and 2GM RAM, Windows Vista Premium. After loading Q2007 on the machine, the program suggested I update to the latest version, R5 at the time.

When loading R5 the progress box said program not responding. I used task manager to cancel the program. DO NOT DO THIS! You will be unable to uninstall, or reinstall the program. I followed all the directions on Quicken's website to uninstall, but was unsuccessful. I called their customer support number and had a great experience. They answered within two minutes, the rep was very knowledgeable, and did not rush me at all. I would say we spent 20 minutes on the phone. He was in New Delhi, India.

Say Vista users, when you download R5 give it 30 minutes. The progress bar will say "program not responding," but just relax and give it a LOT of time.

Once installed the program appears to be working well.



3 out of 5 stars Better than before, but not perfect   May 3, 2007

I used to use Quicken Deluxe 2003 and had serious stability issues in Windows 98. I upgraded to WinXP and found that it was even worse. For some reason I bought Deluxe 2007 and have actually seen quite a few improvements in the way the software runs. It's much faster (at least on my machine) and has very nice features which are new to me. The calendar features and automatic online updates are really nice.

The Customer Invoices (business end of the software) are basically a joke and reconciliation is a pain in the neck! One thing that is so stupid is that to enter a payment received on an invoice, you MUST make a deposit into an account in Quicken. The problem is that unless you make a single deposit at your bank for each invoice you got paid on, it's impossible to accurately reconcile the bank statements. You also can't seem to enter a partial payment on an invoice, or an overpayment. And third in the stupid ideas category, you cannot print certain reports on customers and invoices, yet you can view them in a nice little pop up box. How hard is it to put a "print" button?!

All in all, it's not perfect, but it's functional and very handy for personal finance management. For running the finances of a business it's pretty useless, even a tiny business like mine.
