Quicken Deluxe 2000

Pros: Easy to use and comprehensive
Cons: Sometimes there is a little too much

Quicken 2000 is a solid and easy to use program that allows you to manage your money and pay your bills efficiently. I have used Quicken (though not 2000, now that would be impressive) for 7+ years, and I would not move to any other program. ...

Pros: See Review
Cons: See Review

We have been using Quicken software for our financial needs for about 5 years now. I don't even own a check register anymore! (This works particularly well if you use duplicate checks. If you use single, I suggest you hang on to that.)

Pros: Good for financial management.
Cons: Can cause problems for downloads

I have spent a lot of time working with both Quicken and Microsoft Money. It was part of my job doing technical support for a large bank in the northeast to know them pretty well, as many of our customers used them to keep track of their finances. To be...

Pros: easy to install, get started, and maintain
Cons: none

Being a computer professional, the last thing I wanted to do was buy a home computer and have it become a focal point of my non-professional life. The rationale behind that statement stems from spending a substantial portion of my time in front of a...

Pros: Easy, great for debt-reduction plans
Cons: Can't think of any

Quicken Deluxe 2000 is capable of so much more than what I use it for. All I really wanted to do was keep track of my credit card bills and monitor my progress in paying them down (when I got married I suddenly had twice the number of credit cards).
...

Pros: Every day finances
Cons: long term planning

My husband and I have been satisfied Quicken users for the past 9 years, using not only Quicken but also Quicken Financial Planner and Turbo Tax Deluxe. Intuit stopped supporting and updating Quicken Financial Planner in 1999 so we upgraded to Quicken...

Pros: Manage your finances, internet connection to many financial institutions for account updates
Cons: Outrageous tech support, unstable, no option quotes

Quicken is on the surface a very comprehensive tool for managing your finances. It takes a good amount of effort to enter the information to get started, and a good amount of effort to maintain it - but it is worth it. All financial information, up to...

Pros: Great tax reporting schedules
Cons: A little tedius for setting up stocks & funds

I was given the daunting task of doing a day trader's (genuine, bonafide day trading client)schedule D (capital gains and losses) for the tax year 1999.
I have Quicken for my own stocks at home, but thought there must be something else specifically...

Pros: checking, saving, and investment management
Cons: some features require an internet connection for best usage.

Quicken 2000 Deluxe provides you with all the tools you would need
to manage your household finances.

I use this product to manage not only my checking and savings, but my investment accounts and tax burden.

checking and...

Pros: simple for beginners, powerful for power users
Cons: annual upgrade treadmill

You need this program. Period.

I love Quicken. Best thing that ever happened to me. Less than 10 years ago I was in an accident, not my fault, yet ended up over $10,000 in debt with no job, no savings, and no transportation. It was the low...

Pros: Many features.
Cons: Clunky user interface

I bought a package that included Quicken 2000 Deluxe with TurboTax US and state for $50. I was/am very happy with the TurboTax. I cannot say that I'm as happy with Quicken.

My main complaint is that it is has a very bad user interface...

Pros: Ease of use, can use basic features or more more complex features.
Cons: Some automatic features can make this complex to use.

Years ago I had an old version of Quicken, and it was a time consuming nightmare to use, since downloading information from your bank or credit cards was not as prevalent as it is today. I am very impressed that Quicken 2000 has many basic features that...

Pros: Easy to get started, full featured, easy to get outside help if needed
Cons: There is so much to Quicken it may intimidate the novice

Quicken is one of the most powerful personal finance tools you can buy. Do I sound like a true believer? I am, because I use it often to monitor my spending and update my portfolio. No matter which version of Quicken you choose, you can get started...

Pros: Works.
Cons: User interface is not very intuitive to me.

When I got elected to be the volunteer (read that non-paid) treasurer of a non-profit organization, I started using QuickBooks to handle the financials and reporting for the non-profit. I liked the product so well, I bought Quicken for my personal use....

Pros: Easy to use. Performs most financial functions anyone could want for home finance.
Cons: Runs slow on older machines

Having used various versions of Quicken over the past 14 years I continue to be impressed by it's functionality. Everything one needs for their personal finance is contained in this one package. You can track 401k accounts (I track 3 of them), stock...
