Now that Q2018 is out, can anyone comment yet on how it is working, or not?
I am specifically interested in premier.

No regrets. Other than the 'click through' bug I'm happy with it. Everything I've tried works. Typically I did have to re-set a couple of my Preferences. Even seems to be a bit faster than my QW2017. - edited November 2017Thanks for your replies. Since it controls an important information, i am being cautious about being on the bleeding edge.

I'm not using Quicken 2018 yet.and won't until at least Christmas or before tax time.giving Quicken plenty of time to address all sorts of updates to fix what will surely be a litany of bugs and seeing how the sale prices and tax bundles shake out.Thanks for your replies. Since it controls an important information, i am being cautious about being on the bleeding edge.
What I've surmised is that I have copies of Quicken Windows 2017 AND Quicken Mac 2017. I have plenty of 'download life' left before I will need to upgrade.
And since your subscription basically starts on DAY ONE when you install the software, I'm in no rush to upgrade yet.
Besides, is there anything earth shattering in either version that I have to have? Nope.
YMMV. - edited October 2017I just upgraded to the Rental Property Manager version. I personally would wait before trying 2018. I've spent the last 2 days messing with it (and I am a computer software programmer, so I know what I am doing), and I finally decided to just start all the way over. This is going to take forever! It will only add 1 account at a time. It says it doesn't recognize the other account types, but they are accounts I've already added. This is very frustrating and I am very disappointed with Quicken! I hope they have a quick fix for this!
- edited June 2018I upgraded from mac 17 deluxe to mac 18 premier. Just noticed that I can not manage my auto renewal feature online. I am required to contact customer support. I should be able to manage my account settings without having to speak with customer service. It reminds me of the old days when i had to call the operator to make a phone call.

They don't want you to easily stop auto-renewal. I hate it when other companies default to that.

I minimize my cloud usage as we know nothing stored there is private or secure. If you read any of these use contracts closely, you see that they limit your use of their product, but they reserve the right in the future to do just about anything they want with our information.
Once they lock you in, you either succumb to their terms COMPLETELY, or lose use of your data.
For now, Q says there is a data guaranty for other than starter versions. - edited November 2017I've been a Quicken user for many, many years. Currently running '15 and I expect the 'sunset' soon as the 3-year support ends.
Last year I reviewed Money Dance and found it OK, but not as well finished a product as Q. At a cost of $60 / 3 years, Quicken 2015 seemed the best value.
Quicken 2018, at $45 / year is more than double the cost. - edited November 2017@Mark . I suggest you go to eBAY and buy a new in the box Quicken 2017 while it can be found there. Can be had there for very little $. Quicken 2017 will keep you going until the year 2020.
Can tell you that there is very very little difference between Quicken 2017 and Quicken 2018. - edited November 2017Does the new 2018 version have color back in the toolbar or is it still all gray with the overbearing bright white background throughout the screen?

I did what Rhinecliff recommended and upgraded my 2015 to 2017 yesterday. I got the Home and Business for $50 on ebay which will be supported for a couple more years. You might want to grab a copy of 2017 soon, as the price may go up as others catch onto the same idea.

Note that on the 'Online Bills' (Bill presentment) that has been in Quicken since 2016, but the retrieval of PDF statements is new. But it is quite limited in which billers are supported for this. Like they are claiming 11,000+ billers, I think the ones that will return a PDF are probably less than 1,000. Also there have been reported bugs in the PDF feature where sometimes you can't view/download them even when Quicken shows them to be there.
The release notes have some more details:

Anyone looking for more than 'incremental changes' over Quicken 2017 are going to be very disappointed for the most part. But it has been reported that Quicken 2018 is now working better with 4K displays that Quicken 2017 is doing with the latest patches. I don't have a high DPI screen so I can't verify, just reporting what I have seen in other threads.
Some people might like that for the report graphs you can change the colors. Note that doesn't extend into all graphs like say the projected balances. - edited November 2017
I updated to Quicken 2018 Premier last night took one look at the Bills Tab and found that Quicken split the Bills from the Deposits so I no longer see all my upcoming Transactions on one page. I actually liked the Stacked Bill Reminder in Quicken 2017 Premier and the total overview of what was due. The split version of Quicken 2018 gives you a Stacked view for Income on a subtab and a Bar Setup for the Bills on a separate tab. The Calendar View just looks way too busy. Needless to say I reverted back to Quicken 2017 and cancelled the subscription. The jury is out if I will follow through with Quicken 2018 to me they fixed what wasn't broke. I guess they are taking a page out of Microsoft's book i.e. The start button removal and Xbox One lack of backward compatibility. I would just like the option to keep the 'Classic' View.Downloaded Quicken 2018 Premier this morning from Quicken.com. ZERO problems. Bill pay is sooo much better. The product works very well.

I'm running Q2016 Premier and have been annoyed by the display issues (microscopic fonts on a 5K monitor). I took a survey from Quicken and plainly told them that I'd be happy to switch to a subscription service rather than paying for shyte every few years.

However, we are working to make this option available on quicken.com. We plan to have this feature enabled this year—well in advance of the first, 1 year subscription expiration dates.

I have tolerated display/font issues which I did not have before the Windows upgrade.
- edited October 2017You have a point there. I like having the updated tax tables. Also, some of the older software doesn't work so well on windows 10.
After, the last windows 10 update, i could no longer view the tax planner, and another program had to be installed. Installing Q18 fixed it. (Of course, reinstalling Q17 might have done that too. ) - edited October 2017Last night I was going to reconcile one of my checking accounts. For some reason, the update was not working, so I just downloaded a file from my Wells Fargo account and imported it into Quicken 2018 Rental Property Manager. Quicken failed to import 7 of the transactions. They all had to do with transfers between accounts. I had to manually enter them to get it reconciled. I am now very worried about what else Quicken may be failing to do! I am trying to track many different rental properties, rents, and expenses. Has anyone else had this happen?

If you have Quicken 2015, 2016 or 2017 I'd be using those versions until the termination of downloads is very near. Only then would I upgrade to the new annual/bi-annual subscription model.
Why? Well, first off you already PAID for your version and you have a lot of useful life left. Why pay for a subscription that will give you LESS useful life than the version you're already using?
Second, as you've seen, it takes a very long while for Quicken to iron out all the inherent bugs of their newest version(s). Why? I have no idea. It IS beta tested, but from my experience, what is beta tested isn't always what users see in the production version.
The only caveat to the above would be something earth shattering that is added or fixed. For example, if you're perturbed by the incessant 'click through' problem in the Windows version when backing up, and Quicken, by some miracle, actually fixes it.that might be a reason to upgrade.
For Quicken Mac, if by some revelation they release a version with a robust reporting engine that accounts for transfer transactions and can have those included in a budget, then I would upgrade in an instant.
But sadly.they haven't.on either version.
Other than that.I'm good where I'm at and resist the temptation to upgrade daily. It's like being in a Twelve Step Program.

Quicken 2018 For Mac Review: Now Subscription Only
There are no huge changes in the Mac release of Quicken 2018 but there have definitely been improvements to Bill Pay, Loan Analysis and Investment tracking. The overall interface looks slightly slicker too. The biggest changes are undoubtedly the introduction of 3 versions of Quicken for Mac users and the switch to an annual subscription model.
- 3 new versions for Mac users to choose from
- Much improved Investment Tracking
- Better Loan Analysis
- Subscription only - no one time purchase available
- Still lacks Quicken 2007 core features
- Many reports still missing
3.8Overall Score
Quicken 2018 for Mac is now available and the big news is that it has officially moved to a subscription only pricing plan. If this is the last straw for you, check out our look at some of the excellent Quicken alternatives for Mac that exist nowadays such as the impressive free version of Personal Capital.
MacHow2 was the first to report that such a move was in the pipeline shortly after the release of the Canadian version of Quicken 2017 for Mac although Quicken Inc later denied any decision had been made about the US product. Now however, it’s official that all Quicken 2018 products are only available on a subscription basis. In this review, we look at what this means for you and what’s new in Quicken 2018.
What’s New in Quicken 2018 For Mac?
Free cs go hacks for mac. For all Quicken for Mac users, the biggest changes in the 2018 version are:
1. Quicken for Mac is now subscription only – you can’t just make a one-off purchase anymore, you have to make an annual or bi-annual commitment to it. Note that 2 year subscriptions are only available from third-party retailers such as Amazon, Staples and Office Depot. Quicken Inc only sells 1 year subscriptions at the moment.
2. Quicken will now be available in 3 different versions that were previously only available on Windows:
- Quicken Starter for Mac
- Quicken Deluxe for Mac
- Quicken Premier for Mac
3. In any subscription, you also get 5GB of Dropbox space to backup your accounts. Third parties such as Amazon are offering up to 15GB of Dropbox space included in 2 year subscriptions. Dropbox backup support already existed in previous versions of Quicken but you now get more space. You can simply configure Quicken 2018 to backup your accounts to Dropbox for extra security.
For Quicken Deluxe for Mac subscribers and above there are additional benefits:
- You now get a customized investment portfolio with IRR and ROI. This also includes Investment Lot tracking, Linked eBills and PDF statements.
- You now get “What-if?” analysis for loans with ability to vary payment scenarios
For Quicken Premier for Mac subscribers and above you also get: Bitdefender for mac reviews 2018.
- Quicken Bill Pay for automatic payment of bills with 11,000 online billers now supported according to Quicken Inc
- Priority Phone support. It’s not exactly clear what this means because as yet, there’s no official Quicken Policy on it but presumably it’s the same as Quicken Premium Support which previously was only available for Windows.
Quicken For Mac 2018 Pricing
Dr phyllis chang dmg. Subscriptions for Quicken 2018 are available on a one year or two-year basis. However, Quicken Inc is only selling one-year subscriptions – two-year subscriptions are only available via third-party vendors such as Amazon. Subscribing for two years at a time works out cheaper than just a one year subscription, plus Amazon is offering 3 months for free and an extra 15GB of Dropbox storage (more on this later).
Robotmon service manager mac download. Subscriptions are tied to your Quicken ID and you can install Quicken on unlimited Macs or PCs with one subscription (more on this later). Note that there is no free trial although Quicken offer a 30 day money back guarantee if you’re not satisfied (which is down from 60 days compared with previous versions).
The exact pricing for the different versions of Quicken 2018 on Mac and Windows are as follows:
- Quicken Starter (Mac & Windows)
- One-year membership: $34.99
- Two-year membership: $49.99 (available at retail)
- Quicken Deluxe (Mac & Windows)
- One-year membership: $49.99
- Two-year membership: $79.99 (available at retail)
- Quicken Premier (Mac & Windows)
- One-year membership: $74.99
- Two-year membership: $119.99 (available at retail)
- Quicken Home, Business & Rental Property (Windows)
- One-year membership: $99.99
- Two-year membership: $149.99 (available at retail)
You can see full details of how Quicken 2018 versions compare here but In a nutshell, Quicken Starter will be too basic for most needs and most serious Quicken users will need Quicken Premier. The only difference between Quicken Deluxe and Quicken Premier is that Quicken Premier supports Bill Pay. If you can live without that, then the Deluxe version will do. The system requirements for all versions of Quicken for Mac 2018 are OS X 10.11 El Capitan or higher.
Although the news that Quicken 2018 is subscription only will grab all the headlines, the reality is that it was already semi-subscription anyway. The online features such as Bill Pay and transaction downloading already had a 3 year limit on them meaning after three years, you had to renew your payment for those services to keep them going. However, there’s no doubt that this move will significantly increase the cost for those Quicken users that didn’t upgrade every year. If you look at the bigger picture however, a Quicken 2018 subscription works out at little more than a few dollars a week which, if you find that Quicken is helping you save and manage your money, it doesn’t seem too bad at all.
Intuit ID Becomes Quicken ID
One big change that affects all Quicken users is that Intuit ID has been replaced by Quicken ID. If you’re using an earlier version of Quicken for Mac or Quicken for Windows and use online services like Bill Pay, you may have already been prompted to update with a “Mandatory Quicken Update Required” message.
Don’t worry – this is not trying to force you to upgrade to Quicken 2018. It’s simply upgrading you from an Intuit ID to a Quicken ID which is used from now on to tie your subscription to your Quicken accounts.
You cannot share a Quicken ID with other users. Your subscription is tied to one Quicken ID and password which requires multi-factor authentication to log into via your phone or email. You could of course share your ID, password and phone/email authentication with another user but it’s neither secure nor practical to do so.
Main New Features
The most noticeable changes in the Mac version of Quicken 2018 are as follows:
- New Bill Management Center. Bill Pay now supports around 11,000 online billers and the bill management center has been revamped.
- What-If? Analysis for Loans. You can see how different scenarios will affect your ability to payback loans. Loan Amortization was already introduced in Quicken 2017 and continues in Quicken 2018 although it’s only for fixed rate loans, not variable or daily interest rate loans.
The other notable changes are to the Investment Center which looks a lot slicker and more detailed. However, although overall Quicken 2018 feels a bit quicker and snappier than 2017, there does seem to be some lag when scrolling through investments, especially when dealing with several years of data. Stock price updates and stock prices from other countries aren’t available though and many investment reports aren’t available in the mobile version.
Note that one current bug is that if you’re migrating from Quicken for Windows to Quicken for Mac, currencies are not imported properly. For example, UK pounds will be imported as US dollars instead so if you have multi-currency accounts in Quicken for Windows, you should hold switching for now. Note also that there’s no support for crypto-currencies such as Bitcoin and Ethereum in Quicken 2018.
Still No Transaction Download Acceptance & Matching Control
Mixmeister 7. 6 mac download. One of the most requested features by Mac users is the ability to control transaction downloading and matching in Quicken For Mac. This is one of the many features that used to exist in Quicken 2007 for Mac but later disappeared when they rebuilt Quicken for Mac in 2010 never to return. It used to be possible to require manual acceptance or automatic reordering into the register but downloading to the register in the Mac version still does not allow users to control or verify that transactions are correct.
The ability to review downloads from your bank and credit card transactions before you accept and categorize them is useful in catching fraudulent charges or errors, editing transactions and other tweaks or checks. Another other problem is that automatically accepting immediately affects the balance of your register or account before they have been verified. If you’re someone who likes to check receipts against the downloaded version, then you’ll find this very time-consuming as you’ll be left double checking every automatically accepted transaction.
Is Quicken For Mac 2018 Now The Same As The Windows Version?
The big question on many Mac users lips will be is Quicken for Mac now finally exactly the same as on Windows? Despite now offering more versions of Quicken that were previously only available on Windows, unfortunately the answer is no. In fact the core functionality of Quicken 2018 still doesn’t match up to Quicken For Mac 2007. The download transaction matching feature mentioned earlier is just one of many features that exists in Quicken for Windows and not in the Mac version but there are many more basic differences.
Most notably, the Reporting features of Quicken 2018 are still far behind what was available in the 2007 apart from improvements such as Investment Lots. There have also been slight improvements in how you can control reports such as font size, row colors, Excel export and an increase in the number of rows and columns supported. Unfortunately Tag Reports, Category Reports, Columnar Reports are all basic reporting features which are still either poorly implemented or lacking in Quicken 2018 on macOS.
However there is hope for reports junkies as Quicken Inc claims that there is a new reporting engine being used in Quicken 2018 which is already being used in the Transaction, Comparison and Transaction reports along with the standard portfolio view. This suggests that the addition of new types of reports is in the pipeline and could be easily added in future updates to Quicken 2018.
What Happens To Your Accounts If You Cancel A Quicken Subscription?
Adobe cs6 mac download full. If you discontinue your subscription Quicken’s Data Access Guarantee states that you’ll always have full access and ownership of your data. However, note that this only applies to Quicken Deluxe and above – Quicken Starter data will become read-only and you won’t be able to edit your accounts anymore. For subscriptions to Quicken Deluxe and above, if you cancel your subscription or it expires, you will still be able to view, edit, export and manually enter transactions and accounts. However, you will no longer be able to use any of Quicken’s online services such as downloading of transactions, mobile syncing, Bill Pay etc. Quicken will continue you inform you of changes and updates to the product.
What Happens If You Don’t Want Quicken To Store Your Data In The Cloud?
The move to a subscription only model means that some users will feel even more uneasy than they already do about Quicken having more control over their financial data. However, even with a subscription, you can still prevent Quicken from storing your data online although it does mean losing access to certain services. If you want to make sure that your accounts are now uploaded to Quicken Cloud then you must disable Quicken Connect, Mobile Sync, Alert Notifications and any Clean-up Payee options you may have activated.
If you still want to be able to download transactions from your bank, you can use Quicken Direct Connect instead which is a direct connection between your bank and Quicken which bypasses Cloud storage. Alternatively, you can use Web Connect which downloads a QFX file from your bank or financial institution and which you can then upload to Quicken. You can find details here out how to configure Direct Connect and Web Connect on Mac.
How To Turn Off Subscription Auto Renew In Quicken 2018?
One of the slightly annoying issues we found is that you can’t actually turn off auto renewal of Quicken 2018 subscriptions in Quicken or on Quicken.com. You have to phone customer support to deactivate it. Quicken Customer Support is available on +1 (650) 250-1900 between 5:00am to 5:00pm Pacific, Monday through Friday. Be warned that at the moment, you may face long waiting times on phone support as the release of Quicken 2018 means the lines are much busier than usual.
How Many Macs Or PCs Can You Install Quicken 2018 On?
Quicken For Mac 2018
You can install Quicken 2018 on as many computers as you like as long as they are tied to your Quicken ID. Initially there was a 3 computer limit but Quicken Inc has revised the Quicken Terms of Use to remove any mention of this limit shortly after the launch of Quicken 2018. However, all versions will be limited to the functions and settings that are configured for your Quicken ID such as Credit Score etc.
When it comes to Cloud syncing, this is more limiting than the old Intuit ID system which allowed you to create a new separate ID for each data file so you could have multiple credit score for multiple accounts. If you therefore used to have different family members or colleagues using the same version of Quicken as you but with their own account, Cloud syncing separate accounts under one subscription will no longer be possible. For each account you want to create and sync across mobile devices, you’ll need a new subscription. If you don’t need Cloud syncing though, this won’t be a problem.
Note that you don’t have to buy the PC and Mac versions separately – a Quicken subscription now entitles you to download both the Windows or Mac version as many times as you like.
Quicken For Mac 2018 Issues In Education
Best Deals To Buy Quicken 2018
Quicken For Mac 2018 Release Date
The launch of Quicken 2018 has already seem some pretty competitive pricing mainly between Amazon, Staples and Office Depot. Retailers are currently the only ones offering two year subscriptions – you can only get one year if you buy direct from Quicken. The best deal we’ve seen so far is for Quicken Premier on Amazon which is currently offering an exclusive extra 3 months subscription free plus an additional 15 GB of Dropbox storage on Quicken 2018 Premier meaning you get 27 months with 20GB of Dropbox storage. In fact all versions of Quicken 2018 purchased via Amazon are offering the exclusive 3 month extra and 15GB extra Dropbox storage deal.
You can however also buy it online from vendors such as Staples and Office Depot. Be aware that currently, all vendors outside of Quicken are selling the CD version of Quicken 2018. However don’t worry as this doesn’t mean you actually need a CD/DVD drive in order to install it. It just means that you will be shipped a physical box with an installation CD in it but within the box, there is an activation code with a URL to download Quicken from so that you can also install it without the CD. If you buy from Amazon or a high street retailer website such as Staples or Office Depot, you will be emailed an activation code. Purchases direct from Quicken do not require any activation code.
Note that as yet, there is no version of Quicken 2018 on the Mac App Store although this will probably be released soon. Existing Quicken 2017 users will probably get some kind of discounted upgrade offer direct from Quicken in the app or via email at some stage.
One word of warning – avoid purchasing Quicken from eBay as most likely they are bootlegged or illegal copies of Quicken. Nowadays every copy of Quicken sold by third-party vendors comes with a one time activation code and without that code, it won’t work.
