Summary: Can't install!!!
Review: I've tried to download the software and was unsuccessful despite efforts by the phone-tech. She recommended that I buy the disk. The disk won't load either and returns an Error message of "1608:Cannot create Istalldriver instance, Return Code 2147467262"

Summary: Wait before upgarding!
Review: If you REALLY want to upgrade to this version, you might want to wait until the on-line reviews calm down. I upgraded awhile ago and have to agree with the complaints that:
1. It hogs memory and theefore crashes or freezes lots (and I have LOTS of memory).
2. It is buggy.
3. It has this wierd registration thing.
4. You WILL spend quite a bit of time trying to figure it out.
I am not impressed. If you still want to upgrade, at least think about waiting awhile until it gets a few fixes in it.

Summary: Warning: Don't use the portfolio analyzer function!!
Review: The porfolio analyzer tool uses 'asset class' data that Quicken downloads. However, in my case, I found that the it was downloading inaccurate. I called tech support, who was able to recreate the problem exactly, and confirmed my findings.We compared the 'asset class' data downloaded into Quicken Premiere, with the 'asset class' data found on quicken.com and found them to be miles apart. The tech support individual told me that Quicken does not download the data from quicken.com, but from another source (he didn't say which, but take that statement as you will). What he did say is 'what you see is what you get.' I asked when it would be fixed, and he said there would be no way to ever find out (except to repeatedly try the function until I see that it works properly). I have no idea how long this problem has existed, but it is frightening to think that people could be making signficant financial decisions based on Quicken's 'portfolio analyzer' which is using some inaccurate data.

Summary: Quicken upgrade and service needs improvement
Review: The recent purchase of Quicken 2003 premier has left me a little discouraged with the product. Having used Quicken 1999 H&B for years I figured it would be an asset even with the mediocre reviews. Well I join the others. I find the reports do not meet my needs and with the Service Pack I still cannot produce some reports like before. I also found a problem with adjusting a category in the paycheck for reimbursments that I was able to do in the other program.

Summary: The New Look
Review: The upgrade (database update) went smoothly for me when installing this new version. It took a week or so to get used to the new screen layout, but now I like it better than the old one. I like how all of the account windows stay open now and you just select the account names to move between accounts in the Account Bar. Current balance is displayed at the bottom of screen by default which I changed to Ending Balance by selecting customize at the lower left of the account bar and then clicking options in the tool bar. The Online window now closes when restarting the program, but it is just a matter of using an Online Center button in the menu bar to get there instead. Another difference for me is that I now need to click on Investment Center to view what I would have seen before in the Portfolio view. But for me, having gotton use to these differences, I like this new interface better.
