However, as part of my work on finding a replacement for Quicken 2007.

When Mac Quicken 2018 was announced as subscription only. Also, once you log in you’re also required to complete a survey before you can begin using the app. Being able to save data in a local file seems, to me, to be something I should be able to do without linking to Intuit’s back-end, particularly if I have no plans to sync Quicken with any of my mobile devices. While I understand the purpose of using a Quicken ID-it’s used to sync Quicken data on your Mac with iOS devices-I don’t like that this is a requirement for using Quicken.

Quick on the setup The setup of Quicken 2016 is a little uncomfortable from the jump, as it requires that you use a Quicken ID in order to set the app up. Not to mention a brief name change from Quicken to Quicken Essentials and back to Quicken again., the application resulting from this mini-morphing over the years, is a solid tool for managing your personal finances that remains as easy to use as was its predecessors, but it’s no longer the only personal financial player in the game.
