    Software "Upgrade" is really a "Downgrade"

    Software "Upgrade" is really a "Downgrade"
    I have been a Quicken user since 1994 and have gone through 4 upgrades. Note that Quicken forces people to update the software every 2-3 years or you lose support and online services. My past upgrade from Quicken 2014 to Quicken 2017 went from ok to worse - particularly with the display, graph colors and support. Having a bar graph on a budget report showing both favorable and unfavorable bars with the same red color makes no sense and there is nothing that a user can do to fix this. The support community on Quicken is very frustrated with a similar issue with other graphs but Quicken refuses to acknowledge the issues and offer a fix. I will be considering other financial software options for home use and I would encourage anyone in a similar boat to consider the same.

      I usually face the prospect of a Quicken upgrade with fear and loathing. I have had some experiences where it has taken multiple revisions to work out bugs and other issues, so the prospect of this upgrade was not appealing. I usually wait to after tax season and then buy last year's upgrade for a 60% discount. By that time I am more confident that the usual bugs have been resolved even though it means I am on a two year renewal cycle.

      This year I decided to upgrade to the most recent version for two reasons. I want the new owner to have a positive and profitable experience with Quicken because I, like so many here, have become dependent on Quicken. There really is no alternative for managing personal finances on a desk top. I hope that the new owner has a commitment to the product although the fact that they are a private venture firm causes some concern. I also saw the $44.95 Amazon price which puts the cost back into the realm that is affordable.

      I HIGHLY recommend going to another review "1runr" entered on November 26, 2016 in the Premier edition reviews under 3 star section and follow his/her instructions. Previous upgrades have stumbled on password issues. I have found that over the years, removing the passwords before the upgrade, and then reinstalling them after the upgrade, has been necessary and contributes to a smoother experience.

      I will add some additions and clarifications to his instructions. After the initial backup of your data and the completion of the file validation process with the necessary corrections, make a backup of the validated and corrected data file. I have been a Quicken user since about 1990 and my file size has over 200,000 items! After the first validation, I had to manually fix some 10-15 corrupted entries. Quicken fixed some other problems and reported the results to me. It took about 3 validations to have a perfectly clean file.

      Quicken 2014, my previous version, did not allow me to enter a "blank" password for the Password Vault. Instead I reviewed the accounts to be sure I knew each of the account passwords for the "one step update" for each account. I then deleted all of the passwords by deleting the password vault. This DOES NOT delete the web linkage to the external accounts, it just deletes the passwords and they are easily reentered after the upgrade.

      Instruction #6 may be confusing. For Quicken Deluxe, 2014, it should read "go to Edit/Preferences/Intuit ID... and make sure you can login – you will need the loginID and login password to upgrade to Q2017. Quicken calls this password your “Intuit/Quicken ID Password”." The Intuit ID works very well. I enabled 2 step authentication to the online account previously, so I know no one will get access to any of my data.

      Interestingly, after the upgrade, I reran the validation test and about 30 previously unidentified corrupt or erroneous entries were reported. I will have to go back and check them, but they are from the early 2000's. Perhaps they are the result of earlier formatting that has subsequently been modified through serial upgrades. I hope they will be easily rectified but I skipped over them over for the time being to test the functionality of the new product.

      Many of us are really very long time users of Quicken and we like the centrality and control over finances that Quicken, as a desktop application, offers. I hope the new owners appreciate how really loyal their customers are, and will be, even if the customer is displeased with the upgrade experience. Before the web connect functionality, the ability to organize and centralize banking activities, and print checks seemed miraculous. However most Quicken users now have graduated and value the portfolio update function, the automatic web connect download and the reconcile function. I have used some of the web enabled download and reconcile features for credit card accounts and a few bank accounts, but will, as of next year, implement this function on all bank accounts and brokerage accounts since it has worked so seamlessly and accurately for a number of years. Quicken allows for almost total automation of common financial activities. Only your idiosyncratic uses will require manual input. What a time saver both for regular oversight of your finances and year end tax reporting! Historically, I have not, and probably will not use the mobile component so I can't comment on it.

      I was happy to see, after the upgrade, that all of the functionality that I was able to quickly test, was totally intact, including reports, quote update function, and the web connect and download features. I had to change the display to one line view and compact view to emulate the look and feel of the way I had Quicken 2014 set up, but that was a minor adjustment. On the plus side, the slightly smaller font allowed more columns to be displayed in the investing/portfolio window. I must admit I do not like the absence of color in the toolbar and the muted colors for the remainder of the graphs and displays will take some getting use to. I also noted that the display definitely was slow with poor refresh when the window resized. However, I usually fix the window size and do not need to adjust it, so I don't think this will have a significant impact on my use.

      My guess is that some of the disgruntled users may have had some difficulty with the upgrade because they have corrupted files, or they have failed to remove the passwords to the program file and the Quicken vault. I remember problems with previous upgrading and discovered that the problem was caused by the failure to remove the passwords. However, following "1runr" from November 26, 2016's instructions worked seamlessly for me. And, it gives you a chance to clean up the corruption in your files you may not have even known existed, especially if you are a really long time user of Quicken and have gone through multiple upgrades.

      I have been highly critical of Quicken in the past. A long-time user (Since version 1.0), I have made efforts to find another solution and have had just horrible experiences with past versions, importing data, having my data corrupted, having product features not work, or having the software completely crash. In 2015 I made a strong effort to find a replacement and frankly, there really isn't anything comparable that is still supported.

      At this point, I back-up my data with a religious fervor, as my level of trust just doesn't exist and full disclosure; I skip updates "riding" a version as long as I can before upgrading typically well after an initial release. I also refuse to pay full retail. Last year, I decided to try the Mac version and we won't talk about that here, as I'll spoil my good mood. So yeah, not a big Intuit fan.

      Why then am I giving 4 stars?

      Quite simply, given the feature set and ease of use, nothing out there touches Quicken. Nothing ever has which is why many of have tolerated a rocky road to this point. (My 2015 Quicken install corrupted my Windows install and I had to go in and repair it - Not a happy camper)

      I upgraded to Quicken 2017 from a backup of Quicken 2015. Here's the thing; it worked flawlessly. The software did one update to the program, rebooted Windows, then asked me where I wanted to store my QDATA file. (I opted under user files under Quicken) I felt all warm inside as I stated disbelievingly at the screen. Good god! It worked!

      Adding new accounts is simple and they are easily established and transactions downloaded from the host bank, brokerage, etc. This is a lot faster than previous versions too. I noticed a couple payment reminders off from my last version but a couple tweaks and I was all set. I felt a little better finding one small thing off. I feared for a moment the installation would be flawless and that would have had me worrying something more malevolent was taking place behind the scenes. The software allows installation on up to 3 machines and you will need to sign in with your Quicken ID on each of them.

      I have Quicken on my main machine at home and on a notebook that travels with me. Sometimes, I do updates during the day then backup to a USB disk and restore on my home machine. Why do this? I haven't had a good experience with Quicken Mobile prior to now. I just installed that this time around and will see how that goes but previous versions, I found useless and I found transactions recorded there weren't consistently recorded in the PC versions of the software - that did it right there for me... It seems to function OK now but largely is a viewable snapshot of your finances. I just don't find it all that useful.

      I took a star off for Quicken Mobile and for the fact that you can only "upgrade" from a previous version i.e. if you had Quicken Premier or Quicken Deluxe and decide you just need to say keep track of your bank accounts, you can't import the data from your earlier version unless upgrading to a like or higher version so no Quicken Basic for you!

      Best Quicken version in recent years and that is saying a lot. I'm very pleasantly surprised and kind of disappointed. I kind of look forward to raging at the computer screen, hurling expletives, and vowing that I'll never ever purchase Quicken again... Oh well, there's always 2019!
