Quicken is a finances and accounting application for Windows. This application has been around for more than 12 years now. Much has changed and much is going to change. The major changes have been due to the new technologies that the Internet has brought upon us and how we have more freedom to do things online. Quicken allows you to interact with your bank accounts and retrieve any data that can be retrieved from them. Thus, you save time in not having to manually input all your costs and the money that you get. The application can work hand in hand with more than 1900 banks across the United States. It also works with brokerage companies and 401(k) companies. Since its beginnings, the application has been characterized for giving you sound advice about what you should do to get to your goals. The application even asks you what your goals are and gives you practical tips for achieving them. Quicken 2007 was so complete that I could hardly think of any features that I would have liked to see in Quicken 2008. But they still found some. Apart from obvious design tweaks and some fixed problems, they have added what they call Bill Center, I think. Where you can track all your bills from a single location. They now track what you spend your money on, and give you tips and even coupons for you to save money. This is an excellent piece of software.
Manage your personal finances, including loans, cash, bank accounts, and stocks.
