"Honest Review of Quicken 07, 08 and now 09"
1. Is it perfect, of course not but I've used all the Quickens since 2007 and have had a positive experience with them all. If you want to do online banking you must call your bank first and let them know you intend to do this with software and then

OK personal financial software package

Quicken 2008 is a small upgrade of Intuit's popular personal finance program. This well-built money manager is easy enough for novices yet powerful enough for veteran number crunchers, although it feels like a warmed-over version of last year's model

PROS: Quicken 2008 works with more than 5,300 online financial institutions, offers some helpful feature and interface improvements, adds new Bill Minder Gadget for Windows Vista users, TurboTax integration, free chat, and e-mail help.
CONS: Quicken 2008 is a minor upgrade with few new features; installation dumps icons on your Windows desktop.
