 Hate Quicken 2004 April 20, 2004
For years I have entered at least 10 hours worth of data per month, and 2004 Quicken makes it MUCH more tedious. The interface is very non-intuitive and clunky, for example the shortcuts make no sense - press "Alt G" for "Securities Bought," or "Alt R" for Securities Sold. The hard to see cursor moves slowly through fields and gets stuck in awkward places making it difficult to enter data. Quicken 2004 is a huge step back.
 It works just fine April 13, 2004

I am a long-time Quicken 98 user. The old one worked just fine, but the downloads will no longer be supported. After 5 years, that's OK. So, despite all the bad reviews, I figured I would back up all my data and try out Quicken 2004 Deluxe. Lots of new features I don't really care about, so I just ignore most of them. It has a new interface, it is a bit of a pain, but it works just fine. I've now used it fairly extensively without any major problems - just a few things I don't much care for.The only things that scare me about this new version is that it wants to connect online to all kinds of servers, including quicken.com and every institution. A little thinking about privacy and security makes this a bit worrysome.
Quicken 2004, save your money April 11, 2004

Each new version of Quicken seems to arrive with a screen more cluttered than the last. This is the last version that I will be buying.I updated to Quicken 2004 hoping that it would finally become easier to use but it definitely is not. The screen is a cobbled up maze that is very difficult to follow and trying to do file operations is next to impossible. Some operations that I need to perform will have to wait because their "help" appears to have been written by someone from another planet. The instructions they give just do not work and in many cases, are wrong. I would love to go back to Quicken 2000 or Quicken 2001 but they fix it so the data cannot be read by their older versions. I am going to try an older version Microsoft Money soon if I can find one and if it will convert Quicken 2004 data.
Disappointing.... April 11, 2004

I can't believe I'm thinking of moving to a Microsoft product (Money). But this version has given me fits, problems with installation, converting, lack of customization, and poor, costly, and slow customer service to deal with these problems. PLUS backing up files are more complicated, and it leaves a little "gift" file on my desktop, something which Intuit says its aware of but can't do anything about right now. Capital Gains are impossible to track...
...so next move... MS MONEY!
long time quicken user very disappointed April 10, 2004

as a quicken user since the early 90's i was excited to pick-up 2004 deluxe. i was disappointed with this version to say the least. it converted much of my data incorrectly, the investment register was modified by someone who appeared to have never used it to actually track & update investments, the interface was clunky, etc. it's unbelievable that a company who used to be passionate about utilizing user feedback on their products could release such a product. i ended up taking my data backup and re-installing the 02 version. 04 is terrible.
