It is a valuable tool when managing finances, and its useful for me as I want to develop better budgeting habits Pros How it helps organize the finances in one place, you can track spending, create budgets, and monitor bills Cons It can be confusing when first learning how to use, there are several features and tools that can be confusing Review Source Consultant Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "Product is ok, customer service needs to be fired and replaced with AI" November 2, 2026 1.0 Not very positive, tbh. I expect more from humans manning the CS desk. They should be better trained. Pros The product is fine, but the sales/customer service people could clearly benefit from training. Too pushy: "would you take the offer or not?... are you there?...". Sending disrespectful emojis. Overall, the tone of the conversation lacks basic manners. Even AI would do a better job Cons Price keeps going up, functionality is still somewhere in the 90s. What is then the justification of the price increase?

Review Source Charlene S. Owner Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "Quicken Over Quickbooks Everyday!" October 30, 2026 5.0 Over the years this still remains affordable, easy to use and way less aggravating than Quickbooks Online or otherwise!

Cons I don't have any complaints about Quicken I have been using it for years and still love it to this day :) Review Source RH Rod H. Civil Engineer III Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "Quicken software review" October 30, 2026 5.0 Pros It is the best financial tracking software available. Has massive support and easily syncs to your financial bank. Cons Few years ago or more quicken switched to a mandatory annual subscription model. Learning curve at first but gets easy very quick. Review Source Owner attorney Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "Quicken still good, but functions don't all work anymore" October 29, 2026 4.0 I still love quicken, but it should work effectively, and not have things like split removal that fail after decades of me using it- why now, and their price is going up... sigh. Pros Makes it easy for me to track everything I spend and have in my accounts- vital for me in my home management Cons I can no longer clear a split unless I go into the entry- this function is not working for months and it is not great. Review Source Assistant coordinator Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "The software that does it all" October 28, 2026 5.0 Relatively pain free, I enter my stuff.It's software track of what I have Finance wise tax wise i can import it later Pros Ease of use and i can get a quick understanding of my finances in one place and can see how they are performing Cons They don't have a monthly plan. They only have a plan that's built annually.Which is okay, cause it's not that expensive. It would be nice though Review Source Account Manager II Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "A good option. " October 1, 2026 5.0 So far, it's been a great experience and I feel that it will be helpful in the future come tax time and year end. Pros I like the ease of use when it comes to keeping all of my finances and financial information in one place and accounted for. Cons I didn't have anything I did not like but I am still using the system so as I grow within the system, I am sure I'd find something that's an area of opportunity. Review Source MR Mohammed R. Technical engineer Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Simple and Effective Personal Finance Management" September 27, 2026 5.0 Pros Quicken is easy to use and makes it simple to track expenses, budgets, and overall finances. Its clear organization helps keep financial information in one place. Cons Some features can feel a bit outdated, and syncing with financial institutions may occasionally require troubleshooting. Review Source Founder CEO Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "Good for household management" August 27, 2026 4.0 Overall all experience was good wish I still had it for personal household use but last I checked it was too expensive Pros I liked that it worked well for my household and home management. It was easy to use and connected with my other accounts Cons I hated that you had to buy a new version every Couple years or couldn’t use the product, also it got way too expensive went it moved only online Review Source Erin S. Treasurer Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "Quicken Review" August 2, 2026 3.0 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. 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. Review Source Patricia M. Designer Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Best for Small Business" January 13, 2026 5.0 I am very impressed and excited about using this tool. As a small business owner, it is very helpful for my operation Pros quicken is very secured and the customer support is top tier, it is what all small business operation needs to process payment Cons you can only access it online so if you are not connected, it can slow down the process of making payments Review Source Owner Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "Using Quicken to manage your rental property" June 19, 2025 5.0 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!!!! 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 Review Source President Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "Good program to track expenses, receipts, and bills" January 20, 2025 4.0 I've used Quicken for many years. While it can be frustrating at times, I have found no other program on the market that allows me to track my receipts, expenses, and bills, as well as does Quicken Pros It makes it easy to keep track of expenses and bank accounts Cons It can be buggy at times, e.g., downloading transactions into the wrong account. Alternatives considered [QuickBooks Money](https://www.capterra.com/p/170065/QuickBooks-Money/) Reasons for choosing Quicken Quicken was the best available product at the time. Review Source Owner Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "All the columns add up in Quicken for your needs!" May 27, 2026 5.0 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! 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. Review Source Receptionist Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Its okay but could be mucb better " June 14, 2026 4.0 Pros I like using Quicken instead of a check register, because it makes recording checks easier (autofill, recurring payments) and balancing the checking account faster. Would prefer to see Bills and Income separated out in the Tabs section, so it wouldn't take two clicks to find each. And when reconciling the account, it would be better to go to check register to add something without having to go back through the initial screen of entering the balance, etc. Cons I strongly dislike having to pay each year for use of software presumably because I get new features and updates. I don't use the new features you add. I don't use the majority of features that have existed in the product for many years. I don't rent my house, nor lease my car. I want to buy things once and use what I bought. Every time you add features the user interface becomes more cluttered and harder to find the features I do use. Frequently when you "update" the software, access to the features I use are found in different places in the interface. Review Source Director Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "Good but they make not impossible to transition" December 31, 2025 5.0 This is still the universal standard, new capabilities and plenty of opportunities to customize but expensive and hard to transition from Pros This is still the go to bill keeping and invoice tracking software for us, it has new features like send auto reminders that level it up Cons It’s expensive for the lowest tier service and if you ever try to transition away they make it hell to get your data Review Source Director Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "QUICKEN is good enough, but is it the best?" May 6, 2026 4.0 We have found the QUICKEN offers us comprehensive options overall categorizing items making it easier in tax time, Belin, our checkbook and paying bills. QUICKEN has done all of the things that it says it will do and then some. Pros I like the integration of our bank accounts and ability to pay bills and look at payroll and other activities at very few key strokes. Cons I’m looking at some newer platforms that may be simpler to use it integrate with AI and may work better with some of our banking options. Review Source Admin Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "Quicken review" May 18, 2026 5.0 My overall experience with Quicken was while doing accounts payable and receivable which I found to be working very well. Pros I found using Quicken to be very user friendly, making it easier to do my everyday tasks. Invoicing seem to be very smooth with being able to process. Cons I felt Quicken was just a tad on the expensive side. I would have liked to have seen it be on the cheaper side. Review Source President Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "Quicken, not a premier experience" February 17, 2025 3.0 It's a love-hate relationship. I keep looking for something with all the features I need, some come close but so far no viable replacement Pros I've been using Quicken for years. I like having all my financial info in one place, I also like the online downloading of transactions. Cons Bugs. There are a bunch and it takes forever for them to be fixed.

Pros The features and functionality of Quicken meet many of my business. The reporting is simple and easy to apply and access. I think managing multiple businesses is good with this system. It has more of a scaleable feature. Cons there are times when making entries or correcting entries that I think the steps could be simplified.

October 22, 2022 5.0 Placed it on 2 units at first to try it out in our office and loved it so much we decided to switch everyone to it instead. Been using it daily for almost 3 years now. It's an excellent program! Pros It's very easy to self learn this program. It is equally as easy to teach to others too because it's simple to understand Cons I have no complaints. It was easy to set up, it was easy to convert info from the prior program we were using. It was easy to learn and easy to teach to others. 10 out of 10 far as I'm concerned!

January 10, 2025 5.0 We have over 40k clients that use a purse acct. for bookings with us, that's a lot to keep track of. Quicken makes that as easy as it possibly can be.

Review Source Senior accountant Used the software for: 3-5 years ### "Great bookkeeping software" January 2, 2025 5.0 Been a good experience overall really effective and efficient Pros It's a good bookkeeping service to use on the computer Cons Some limit in options but still solid definitely efficient Review Source Admin Assistant Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "Simplicity with Quicken" November 6, 2024 3.0 Quicken has been easy to use and budget my personal and small business accounts.
