Quicken 2015After 8 years, Intuit has come out with an update to Quicken. Has anyone tried it? The reviews haven't been kind. |

It'a actually quite good. I switched from the Windows version after using it about 15 years. It migrated all my data flawlessly. There new version is still a bit light on reporting, but other than that it works well and is easy to use. Intuit is releasing new features each month or so, based on customer feedback. |

I cut over to it from the 'ol pen-n-paper a few months ago, and indeed, it is quite good.
It's progressed tremendously over the last few months as well. Really happy with it. |

I have looked at Quicken in the past and was under the impression that it was a kind of subscription service. Their website says it is not a subscription service, however it is not clear if your financial data is held on their systems or only on your computer. I am not interested in having any of that data on anything except my machine. Is this a stand-alone-package?? |

Quicken is the main reason I run Parallels and Windows on my Mac. The Mac version of Quicken, and to a lesser extent, QuickBooks, have been seriously lacking in features compared to the Windows versions. I'd love it if they finally got Quicken working well for Mac. |

Qucken 2015 for MacOS is "better" than has been available, but it still lacks a feature that is a must-have for me to finally migrate over from Quicken Windows...Loan Amortization. I cannot for the life of me understand why that is still missing from a personal finance program...so I wait. |

It stores your data in a file like anything else. I use Little Snitch; I only see it connecting to Intuit to get updates. They're adding features in at a pretty decent clip. |

Anyone know how Quicken 2015 compares to Quicken 2007 for Lion? Can you pay bills directly from Quicken 2015 and download transactions from a bank without going through the website and importing QIF? |

The only mention I see of the ability to pay bills from within Quicken is on the "Vote For Features" area... so I guess not. |

That's correct...bill pay has not yet been added. "Vote" for the three top new features you want...vote early and often. |

I have been using it for a couple months now, and it isn't much different from Essentials. Graphics have changed slightly, and not necessarily for the better. Downloads are still hit-or-miss - sometimes they work, sometimes they don't. If you are using Essentials, there really isn't a reason to upgrade. |
