Strengths: This version has a nice interface, helpful guides, and business related features.

Weaknesses: Although not really a fault of the program itself, various financial institutions use different methods for connecting to the program.

Overall Evaluation: I was previously using Quicken 2001, and the new interface is particularly appealing. This version also makes good use of guides for setting up accounts and exploring data. Although not really a fault of Quicken itself, various financial institutions seem to use one of several different methods for connecting with the program--if there were a higher level of standardization, interacting with the program would be simpler. I haven't had a chance, or a need yet, to try the business related features, but having them as an option is appealing should one choose to integrate that aspect of financial life. Overall, this program does its job well, and I have enjoyed using it.
