They have tripled the ongoing cost since the price is about the same but it's an annual subscription fee instead of a download you can use for 3 years (if you want to continue to d/l bank transactions). While you can continue to access your data and run reports, you'll no longer be able to download transactions, or add manual transactions. I wonder if the user base can have any influence on getting this egregious change reversed? We need to make ourselves heard. Completely unacceptable doesn't fully express my frustration with this approach. Given the three year sunset rule that Quicken imposes for downloading transactions, it certainly looks like they've rigged the window to benefit themselves and harm their user base. I bet many people won't read the fine print and will be nailed by this extortion. Think long and hard before you pull the trigger on Q2017. So in 2018 you can't go back to an earlier version like 2016 or 2015 and manually update your data. When you upgrade to 2017 your data gets converted. This breaks the trust between Quicken and its user base.īy subscribing to this new model you also consent to this new extortion racket. It effectively becomes a read-only snapshot of your data as of the date of expiration. Under this model your use of the product ends completely. Under the old model if you didn't want to upgrade you could continue to use Quicken manually. I can understand that even if I don't like it. The $90/year subscription fee is a cash grab. You'll no longer have access to connected services, like the ability to download banking transactions or investment quotes, mobile access, or premium care. What happens to the program when access to Quicken Connected Services ends?Ī. Operating Systems: Mac OS X 10.10 (Yosemite), 10.11 (El Capitan), 10.12 (Sierra), or newerQ.Quicken ID: Online access is required for registration.
"Newer" would have to be High Sierra, but still, it doesn't clarify that it works. For both Quicken 20, it just says Sierra or newer. I don't have it, so I can't say for certain, but Intuit's site isn't clear, either.
