Too late
I plan to try to get a refund after the first day of finding this 'Hub' product is nothing more than what I have at my fingertips in my Classic Quicken Deluxe Account….
Most importanly….
as far as read before you buy…I interpreted what I read to state that this would be a much more concise way to view all aspects of your 'life' making it easier for beneficiaries
Disappointed that Intuit would sell this!

Intuit hasn't owned Quicken for years. New company is called Quicken Inc.
And for the basic functionality, yes that has been in there for years. Most of the new features are online features.Missed the "HUB" comment. The LifeHub is a new product from Quicken Inc, which I think mostly targets the same people that might have purchased "Home Inventory".

LifeHub and Quicken Classic aim to solve different problems for users. Quicken Classic, the legacy product which has been on the market for 40+ years, is all about managing your finances: tracking your income and expenses, your loans, your investment holdings and performance, and bringing all your financial accounts from different financial institutions together under one roof. Quicken LifeHub is about organizing your records, documents, contacts, access to accounts, etc. under one roof to help you and/or family members or friends, have proper access to your records and documents both while you're alive and especially after you pass. There is only a very light integration between the two (LifeHub can import your account list and balances for Quicken Classic), but they're very different products for helping organize different aspects of your life.
this 'HUB' product is NOTHING MORE than what I have at my finger tips in my Classic Quicken Deluxe Account
Whether it's useful to you (or your spouse, children, or heirs) is a question everyone needs to answer for themselves, but LifeHub certainly allows you to gather different data and documents than Quicken Classic. Wills and Power of Attorney; deed for your home; title for your vehicles; life, home, auto, and umbrella insurance and product warranties;, past tax returns; digital copies of drivers licenses, passports, social security card, medicare card, health insurance cards, medical records; lists and/or documentation of jewelry, furniture, artwork, and other assets in your home; passwords for computers, phones and other devices; login and passwords for memberships and services — the list of what you can organize and store within LifeHub is extensive. I'm sure different users use it quite differently depending on what they own, aim to track, and late life/end-of-life plans and needs. Only a little of this can easily be stored and accessed in Quicken Classic.
And LifeHub allows you to grant access to multiple individuals and to specify which data they have access to.
Not everyone will find LifeHub useful; not everyone will want to do the work to enter/load all their information into it; not everyone will want to pay an annual subscription for a product which might prove ultimately most useful when they die. But I think is an interesting and useful product which many people may find useful.
As noted above, Quicken, Inc. is an independent company, and hasn't been part of Intuit for nearly a decade now.
