The app is simply dragged to /Applications.
There is a 35 page Getting Started PDF file, a directory with instructions for converting old data and a conversion tool, and, of course, the QE app. dmg file, but it really makes no difference.
I reviewed Quicken Essentials version 1.3f4519 - which was an Internet update subsequent to the original version (1.1f4360) supplied by Intuit’s product manager, Eddy Wu.
Quicken Essentials does not include many of the advanced features in other versions of Quicken, including Business features, Rental Property, lifetime planner, cash flow forecast, spending plan, debt reduction plan, emergency tax records, tax planner, and home inventory manager. There is no direct BillPay from within QE. There is no buy/sell detail for investments. There are some things that version 1.3x of QE cannot do: You can import data from the previous Quicken for Mac, Quicken for Windows or Microsoft Money - with some limitation. Special “picker” boxes make data entry easier - just click instead of typing. A single app that’s simply copied to /Applications. Categorizes transactions to highlight where money is going. Overview mode provides snapshot of all money coming in and going out. Learns user habits for data entry over time. New interface allows one to see all accounts in one place. Uses a secure file format for use data on disk. Connects to over 12,000 financial institutions. Regrettably, it is still somewhat unrefined and has some serious limitations.įirst, here are the notable features of Quicken Essentials (QE): It’s a good looking, basic application that has plenty of room for growth. Quicken Essentials is Intuit’s ground-up rewrite of Quicken for the Mac in Cocoa.
