Its The Little Things

daniel.terry

This discussion form is for all the quicken web users who wish beyond wishing that Quicken would just listen and fix the little things on the Web and Mobile apps that drove my wife to say "I can't use quicken on the web anymore" because Finances are already hard and the little things that aren't working are like death by a thousand paper-cuts .

My realization
My realization that it really is the little things that makes people say "I love this product" or "I could see my self using that product". It is true you have to get the fundamental functionality right but what really keeps people coming back are the little things that make the software simple to use ever day.

I have a family of 6 and my wife and I have been using quicken for years. As a software developer and product owner for a big Investment bank, a CPA, and an avid quicken user I moved quickly to adopt Quicken's mobile app and then Quick on the web. The benefit of both my wife and I being able to work on the finances together clearing transaction meant we could do our finances much faster. What can I say we have lots of receipts to clear and the draw of getting it done twice as fast was alluring.

As we jumped in about 4 months ago we found that it really was great to both work on it together. BUT THEN THERE WERE THE LITTLE THINGS:


Please add to this post #TheLittleThings that are keeping you from loving quicken and lets make Quicken Mobile and Web Great again!

As for bugs...you can certainly report them here. If you do not get a mod to pick it up, then you can contact Quicken Support to raise the issues.

The ONLY Official Quicken Support can be reached for FREE via chat or phone.

For Quicken desktop, there is the feature to "Report a Problem" under the Help menu but not sure if that would be the right path for QWeb.

Where possible, you could supply a link back to each relevant thread in this forum.

The inline calculator that allowed you to use the 10 key while in an amount field to add things up or divide. So hard to manage receipts from Walmart where I need to add all the personal expenses from a receipt together.

in Quicken on the web split transactions amount fields move your cursor over one number when deleting the amount from the field. This means when you try and type 125 it types 251. Drives me crazy!
1) On split fields only
2) deleting the amount from a split field and then clicking backspace
3) Type the number 125
It will first put the 1 in the field and move the cursor in front of the 1 and then will add the 25 resulting in the number 251 instead of 125.

See attached

Agreed, only concern was some of them are bugs and some are new features. Was not sure if that was the best place to post. But i do like the idea of people being able to upvote. Thoughts?
