Allow users to select an aggregator (FDA) - Reduces connectivity issues

Options

I recently completed a trial with a competing online money management product. One of the neatest things about this product and something that Quicken is really missing the mark on, is it allows the user to select from 3 different aggregators to connect to tens of thousands of financial institutions. If you don't know what an aggregator does, this is the method in which the money management program (or Quicken) connects to your bank and imports your data. Quicken has been plagued with issues connecting to various financial institutions for the past several years. However, with this competing product I have been able to connect to every financial institution that I do business with (about 20) including the 7 financial institutions that to date, I currently can not connect to via quicken. Because of these issues, I really think it would behove Quicken to implement a similar method for the user to choose from different aggregators should the preferred not work.
