5 out of 5 stars Better. . .   April 27, 2009
Stephen T. Young (Nashville)
9 out of 10 found this review helpful

I have a SMALL business and have been using Quicken for years. Along the way I have noticed how a few years back that Quicken (Intuit) let their product slide and also introduced hype each year to entice you to buy something that wasn't much more valuable than the previous version. (During those years I tried MS Money, etc., but Quicken still had the edge IMHO in spite of the decline in quality)

When the business grew a little last year I also bought Quickbooks 2008 (I also fell into a hype trap about Payroll addition which was nothing but a service. . .but that is another story) Last year I used it a lot but found that Quickbooks was too cumbersome for a business of my size. So, that caused me to look around for a good product again.

Yes, I was VERY hesitant to buy this product; was planning on returning it if it didn't live up to its claims. . . but surprisingly, IT DOES. I have been using it about four months now.

The primary feature is the ability to separate your business and personal trasactions on one screen. Being a techie I understand that there was a signficant amount of database work to accomplish this -and they did it- and in such a way it is very convenient to use, even for business transactions that may be in accounts that are normally 'personal.' This product is a breeze to use for a business my size and to also keep up with personal finances. Probably if I had as many as five-ten employees I would use Quickbooks.

2009 also offers several other bells and whistles above Quicken 2008: The ease of adding new accounts, the reports, the way it imports data is better and some features I seldom use, i.e., 'Quicken Picks' which produces coupons from stores you use. Even these make it worth the price.

But again, it is the Business and Personal data that are easy to seperate, but managable together on single screens that does it for me --it is a signficant advancement along with these additional bells and whistles.

You may want to shop around. I looked at it here but then bought it from Intuit who was bundling it with WillMaker, etc., and etc. And their websites are also improving, e.g., when my computer crashed all I had to do was log back in to [...] and reload ALL that software. Intuit is definitely trying to do better, this product was well worth it for me.



5 out of 5 stars Forced from 2006   May 7, 2009
C. Burch (California)
9 out of 10 found this review helpful

At some point in time Intuit inserted a bug into my Quicken 2006 so I would be unable to electronically update my financial accounts after April 2009 and would be forced to upgrade. I purchased 2009 and the install failed. The program changed my WinXP registry so now I can not even run or install either 2006 or 2009. I am now dead in the water and unable to use either program. A program should work as originally purchased. Features should not be shut down to force upgrades.


5 out of 5 stars Didn't miss a beat   February 13, 2009

Like one of the previous reviewers: I'm one guy running my own remodeling business and if your like me, and you don't care about all the frills except to give your accountant the right info at the end of the year...this program will work great. It isn't complicated as some may say. If you have used Quicken before, then it's like riding a bike. People need to chill...lol. It works just fine!


5 out of 5 stars Quicken 2009 for Home and Business   April 22, 2009

This product was a breeze to install and learn. I have a small one employee business (Sub-S Corporation) and the software has worked perfectly for both my personal and business needs. If you need a lot of support with payroll you will have to add on another utility that costs a little extra, but I am able to get by with the features provided in theis package. Highly recommended.

Dawn (Pennsylvania)
I used a prior version years ago and like the ease of reconciling my checkbook. I don't do well with the traditional pencil and calculator making this a great time management item. I am also able to track my Flexible Spending Account and business related expenses associated with starting a new business. If you have a complex business, you may need more to manage the business aspect of your finances.
