Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

It would be zero stars if Amazon would allow it. 1. Your existing Quicken account cannot be linked to this purchase. Who knows why that is but nevertheless, you have to effectively "start over" with Quicken.com. It's a multi-step, frustration-filled process where Quicken makes it known you, the purchaser, are completely at fault for not having purchased Quicken at quicken.com. How dare you! 2. There are exactly zero improvements between 2016 Premier and 2018 Premier. Well there is one change: Although I knew this going in, the price doubled. Oh, and annoying things got added like "Link it Now", which is even more annoying. And the UI is a train wreck of conflicting ... well, everything. Nearly impossible to read without a headache. 3. Still doesn't display correctly on high-resolution monitors. Those fancy laptops that have existed for 10 years now.... 4. Conversion of 2016 to 2018 data doesn't work. Account balances don't match between the two products. I validated the file before the upgrade and it found no problems. That's about par for the course but it would have been nice to see. 5. Since it is Quicken 2018 one would think maybe the Tax Planner would support 2018? This is kind of a big reason to, you know, PLAN. Apparently not to Quicken. 6. RANDOM ADVERTISING EVERYWHERE. Half the registers now have an advertisement (1/3 of the height of your screen) extolling the virtues of "Zillow" (don't know why that's relevant in my "Cash" account but whatever). Close the advertising down and sure enough, it re-appears the next time you start Quicken 2018. 7. SLLLLLooooowwwwwwwwwwwwwwww..... I have history back to 2001. Press <enter> after entering a transaction, wait 2 seconds. May not seem like much but using it is a nightmare. Quicken 2016 was maybe 1/2 second. Still pretty awful but about normal for Quicken performance. Switching accounts takes 3 seconds. Garbage product to be avoided. Returning it, such as a 'downloaded' product can be returned. Getting money back anyway. It would be better spent elsewhere with a company that deserves it.
