In November, Quicken released a new version for the Mac, Quicken 2018. I waited four weeks to purchase a subscription (more on this later) after reading many, many negative reviews of the update, mostly about the outrage customers felt about being forced to pay each year for a substandard piece of software.

Once Quicken 2018 for Mac was installed, I had a hard time finding many changes. Loan amortizations are now supported, along with some small changes to investment tracking and bill paying. No improvements to reporting though which I consider to be the biggest drawback of using the Mac.

I get Quicken 2018 to install using a Quicken 2017 bottle. Seems to install mostly. However, it gets stuck on the Quicken login by asking for an activation code -- I purchased direct from Quicken, so it doesn't need an activation code. Stuck here on what looks like a Mac window for login, and not a Windows window like expected

Hi! Just bought Quicken 2018 Deluxe because I really hated the way 2017 Deluxe looked and 2016 Deluxe was starting to be problematic.I've upgraded Crossover and my Mac. All latest software and patches.

I just installed Crossover 17.1 and tried to install Quicken 2018. It won't install. In either a new bottle or on the existing one, it laboriously installs .NET and various other Microsoft stuff, then starts to install Quicken. It errors out with "Error code 1603".

Installation is from the CD drive (/media/mah/Quicken) in a Win 7 32 bit bottle selecting Quicken 2018 from the available applications. Software is Quicken 2018 (not Deluxe or Premier.) My Linux is Ubuntu 16.04/3 LTS 64 bit. Quicken 2015 (Premier) runs fine (in a different Win 7 32 bit bottle.)

I tried to replicate the failures you are seeing using Ubuntu 18.04 Beta and CrossOver 17.1, but I got Quicken 2018 to install and launch correctly. I would suggest trying the installation again in a fresh bottle. Depending on your internet connection, among other things, .NET installation can be quite slow as well. If you are still encountering problems, please feel free to contact our support team using the "Contact Us" link at the top of the page.

However, as part of my work on finding a replacement for Quicken 2007, I discovered that Quicken has done themselves something of a disservice with their marketing: Quicken 2018 is not a typical software subscription, it's more of a traditional model.

Even if I stop subscribing, I'll be able to continue using Quicken 2018 (or 2019 or whatever) much the same way I use Quicken 2007 today: As a standalone app without access to online services or Quicken's support services. (Note that this doesn't apply to the Starter edition, just Deluxe and Premier. But Starter is very limited; I imagine most users will have at least Deluxe.)

I moved from Quicken 2007 to Quicken 2017 and was so disappointed, that after 18 months using it, I'm in the process of moving data back to quicken 2007. It had so many reports and other functions they simply did not bring to '17 -- I can't pull simple information for my CPA based on category reports, that show a total spend by category. I was printing out the report and adding the numbers up with a calculator!!!! And then I find the numbers are not even correct -- if an item was part of a VISA bill, it brought the entire VISA amount onto the report (not the categorized item). also gone -- QuickReport. Clearly the folks who did it just scraped the surface and did a very light version. Also annyoying, they try to sell you something every time you open the file. With NO WAY to turn it off.

You should probably give the 2018 version a trial: I find it much better than the 2007 version, especially in terms of interface and usability. They have a full money back guarantee, so there's not much to lose. Import your data file, spend a few minutes with it, and see if it's solved the issues you saw with 2017.

i have used quicken for many years; now on q 16. i will not go to subscription svc. i do not want my info stored outside my pc. i found that my two brokers (Schwab and TRPrice) have reports that give me all i need. Goodby Q in 19. floyd w

I upgraded to Quicken 2018 Premier on 12/1/18 for $47.80 with a $30 discount. $50 per year seemed high, but I was willing to pay it. My subscription auto-renewed today at the full $74.99. This is ridiculous. There were no emails with a discount for renewing early. This is another case of new customers getting a deal while loyal customers (21 years) are getting screwed. Not much I can do now. I have shut off auto-renew and plan to transition to something else before 12/1/19.

I purchased the 2018 Quicken for Home and Business in Jan of 2018, but in mid Jan my "subscription" ran out. I can no longer enter data(quickly or accurately) because they added a Pane about 2" wide on the right asking to renew my subscription (as well as a banner at the top). It squeezes the data space on the main part of the screen so that most columns are only 3 characters wide! I contacted customer service and they state that the advertisement pane CANNOT be removed!! They have "'handicapped" the program so that it is very difficult to enter new data quickly or accurately. I did not use the Download Date function. I will have to re-enter Jan and Feb in my old version and then see if access to my 2018 year of data remains available. Any other Programs available?

I've used Quicken (Mac) since 1995 and have stuck with 2007 because 2017 looked like Quicken Essentials. The old Quickens used to ask what type of account register you wanted and then they'd start one that had exactly what you needed. The registers had different colors depending on the account type: credit card, bank, investment, loan. The best part was that the people who wrote the software actually understood mutual fund investments. The action column had buy, sell, long term gain etc. There was a sharesin/cashout column and a sharesout/cashin column. There was a shareprice/commission column. These 3 columns were all interdependent and came up with a sharebalance. There isn't one other financial software that's so comprehensive in this regard. Most have a stupid cash balance column, which may be fine if you have a brokerage account. But a mutual fund account is for buying shares of mutual funds, and the cash balance should be zero. You want to reconcile the number of shares on the Quicken register with what the mutual fund company says you have. So, long story ... Are quicken 2018 registers as rational as Quicken 2007 registers? Also, can you still do a quick report for one category?

I started using q back in 2000 renewing version every two years. I have q 16 now. Agree with most of the comments that current owner is temporary and besides, having my personal financial data in internet for a hedge fund to watch is not one of my preferred options. I do not know what will do next. Quicken has been managing my finances for almost two decades. It will not be easy for me to change. I would like to see quicken going back to the stand alone version and allowing customers to decide what is best, or at least give possibility to have both alternatives. By the way, I am outside US with accounts in USD, Euro and local currency and cannot sync in app accounts in other currencies so access to internet is useless for me.

I have been a user of quicken since 1993. My purchase of that product and subsequent upgrades has been one of the best purchases I have ever made. The financial return on investment has been incredible in the larger scheme of things.

I was actually thrilled when Quicken was sold to another company because it meant there was a possibility that someone would again care about the product. I'm glad to see the same team (Eric Dunn) now with resources that that they need to improve the product. Since I have upgraded to the current version, I have had no issues or crashes and am very satisfied with the direction the company is taking. 2ff7e9595c
