Stupid business model, mediocre product
I was happily using my 2007 quickbooks pro and then all of a sudden I am no longer able to download my bank statements. Why? Because intuit is stupid. All I can say is that intuit deserves nothing more than an entire customer group that does everything in their power to minimize intuit's profit margin and maximizes their bad press. Each year amazon reviews contain the same fundamental issue.. That intuit does everything they can to force upgrades, charge for basic items that they lead the consumer to believe is included for free, and generally rely on the fact that no real competitor exists. It amazes me that my distaste for microsoft in the windows 98 era is now realigned to the point that intuit makes microsoft look like apple. In 2010 windows me still lets you use a mouse In 2010 windows 98 still lets you email In 2010 windows 95 still lets you connect to the internet In 2010 office 2000 still lets you use the numbers on the top of the keyboard. So, Why is it that.. In 2010 quickbooks 2007 no longer emails? In 2010 quickbooks 2007 no longer lets bank downloads go into the program? Intuit deserves to have a competing software company receive a large amount of funding from some investors and put out a product that does a good job for a fair price, and guarantees it will never turn off your ability to do simple tasks and will entice people to upgrade because the upgraded version has better features. That is what I call a respectable business model. The exact opposite of intuit. Intuit, You Suck and so does the fact that I just had to pay $180 for nothing but the ability to turn my 2007's email and download features back on.
