I already have been using the quicken software for a few years.

I wonder if there is a reason to switch to online. If I use online, can I keep the transactions on my hard drive?

Once I used Mvelopes, an online budgeting site, for a few months. It wasn't free. It was about 35 bucks a quarter. Then I decided to go back to my quicken software, and I hadn't paid mvelopes so i lost all that data after it expired. So i am a little gunshy about using an online budgeting site. thanks

Does upcoming transactios, etc, reflect from the desktop to the online website?

I used to use Quicken Online last year, but got frustrated with the way it worked with US Bank.

Now that MS Money is discontinuing, I decided to go back to Quicken Online for the main reason that my wife and I can view and update anywhere.

However, I'm interested in the desktop version if they both sync, to use more tools.

Thanks.

    Hi DelaCombos,

    Sorry I missed replying to this earlier. The desktop and online products don't sync with each other. You can download the same transactions from your banks to each product, so the resulting transactions and balances will be the same.

    But any data you manually enter in one product vs the other doesn't sync up with the other.

    You probably figured this out already, but just wanted to clarify.

    Hi, I have been using Quicken desktop for years, still at version 2007 but getting ready to upgrade. I just started looking at Quicken Online and I like it for the concise overview of my finances it offers.

    Does downloading transactions into Quicken Online prevent those same transactions from downloading into Quicken Desktop? If so, would it be possible for Online to update itself but not prevent me from downloading the same things into desktop? I did read a FAQ that telss me how to transfer from Online into desktop.

    I'm watching this, and related discussions for better insite into the synchronicity/connectivity of the various Intuit/Quicken/TurboTax products.

    I use Quicken 2010 Home & Business; TurboTax Online; Pocket Quicken; Quicken Online; and, others.

    Even Intuit/Quicken Support departments are dis-connected from each other!

    In today's age of "connectivity" can't we expect more from our purchases?
