1 out of 5 stars Save your money   February 13, 2008
 6 out of 7 found this review helpful

Having used three different versions of Quicken over the years I find that they have become progressively worse. In the 2007 quicken for the Mac this is the worse one yet. It appears that the developers have gotten lost in the high finance end and this program no longer functions well as an instrument for keeping one's check book. Some of the issues are:
Screen display not adjustable so you can barley read the characters on a 20 inch screen.
The bell or chi-ching is gone so you have to look to make sure your entry happened.
The payee field will not pop up instead they make you go back into the menu and pull it up.
Deleting an entry is now extra work.

And the list goes on and on. In short they need to learn to walk before taking on space flight!



3 out of 5 stars Quicken - Good Personal Finance Software for the Mac   February 11, 2008

I have owned different versions of Quicken since the early days. I think 2007 version is very good for what I need it for. For some reason, it still crashes on occasion - I don't know if this is because my data file could be corrupt or if that file is too big - I tend to keep many years of data in each file. There are some new features that the 2005 version didn't have that I like.

I have always thought of Quicken as sort of one of those programs you use but don't get enthused about. After all, it manages your money, something you have to do.

Recently I had a hard drive fail completely and thought my stuff was backed-up. Turns out it wasn't. No surprise there but Quicken backs-up to your .Mac account (sorry Windows sufferers, you lose again) every time you use the software.

My financial data was 100% backed-up and secure and I was able to resume without a hitch. I've had zero issues with the software before this experience but this made me realize how powerful a tool this can be - imagine losing all your financial stuff?



1 out of 5 stars A BAD PROGRAM - At least they have a 60-day money back guarantee   February 3, 2008
I used to have a PC and used MS Money. It was a very good program. Now I have a Mac and I switched to Quicken. This is a VERY BAD PROGRAM. As an example, in 30 minutes this morning, it shut down on me 6 times! One of those times it even corrupted the file so I had to go to a back-up copy. I NEVER had any problems like this with MS Money. Makes me actually wish I hadn't switched to Mac! The only good thing I see is that Quicken's website says they have a 60-day money back guarantee. I haven't tried it yet, so I hope I don't get problems returning it like I have using it!!!!


1 out of 5 stars This program is awful.   February 3, 2008

DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT. As a new Mac user I was looking forward to moving my Quicken data from windows to mac. As a Quicken user of many years I thought the move would be easy. This program is awful. It is not at all intuitive. The sorting doesn't work. The data had to be saved in a new format within windows before exporting to mac vs converting it upon installation. I think I'm going to use the windows partition (in Parallels) and use the windows version. This program is less than useless.
