Extremely bug-ridden,
Quicken user for 20 years. Don’t buy this update — almost everything I tried to do, I found a bug in the software (downloading & accepting transactions, entering investment transactions)…Felt like it must still be the alpha version. After much frustration, I am giving up and going back to Quicken 2010. And, by the way, back up your files in a separate place before you try 2012, otherwise you wont be able to revert back if you don’t like it.
More generally, I am pretty fed up with Intuit’s updates, which seem to repeatedly introduce needless UI changes and new bugs.

|Warning — Don’t buy this product,
I’ve never written an Amazon review before, but I feel I have a moral obligation to warn people away from this product.
I’ve been using Quicken since 1993, and have been very happy with it. The automatic download of transactions from my Bank (Bank of America), has never really worked, but I’ve always been able to manually download .qfx or .qif files and import them into Quicken.
This does not work with Quicken 2012, which I recently upgraded to (what a mistake!)
I contacted Quicken support and told them that every time I tried to download transactions, I get a “Quicken Server Error”.
After a few days, they told me they had fixed their “script” on their server. It still didn’t work. Their support people asked me to send the logs (again). I sent them. They said the logs were corrupted. I sent them again. They said I sent the wrong log files. I sent them again. Finally, I contacted Quicken Support using their “online chat”. I was able to confirm that all of the files I had previously sent were in fact correct (and yes, I sent them again to be sure, 5 more times). I’m not really sure if their support people are technically inept, or if they are just giving me a run-around, but they are definitely not working to solve my problem.
I’ve wasted a huge amount of time trying to get this problem fixed.
Unless you are willing to sacrifice about $1000.00 of your personal time trying to get this product to work, I strongly recommend that you try a different product from a different company. I’ve been working with their support people for two weeks now, and nothing has been resolved.

|Nice New Features – With Bugs Yet Again,
First off the new features are great. After using this a couple of days I am very disappointed. I did a clean installation on a new hard disk and basic features that worked fine in 2011 no longer work. Online Banking returns a cc-501 error code and despite troubleshooting instructions from the Quicken website I can not get it to work. Memorize Payee no longer works. Used to when you type a Payee Name it would automatically be memorized. In every version of Quicken I have used the last 15 years this worked fine. I verifed preferences were set up correctly. I have to manually right click on the Payee to select Memorize and do it manually. What a hassle. How did something so basic get thru testing? I am using the R2 Update which downloaded automatically when I installed it from CD.
