Book Reviews of Quicken 2009: The Missing ManualBook Review: Required Purchase For Quicken 2009 Users!!! Summary: 5 Stars
'Quicken 2009: The Missing Manual' is a must buy for all Quicken 2009 users that want to get the most out of their financial software. With over 550 pages of material (up 30% from the previous version of this book), this is the EASIEST way to not only start doing the basics with Quicken, but EVERYTHING Quicken has to offer!!!
My only complaint is the lack of color in this book, there really is no reason for not having color in all of these books nowadays.
Here's a McKinnon Overview for the readers:
01. Set Up
02. Starting Off
03. Setting Up Accounts
04. Tracking Transactions
05. Banking Transactions
06. Online Banking
07. Transaction Goodies
08. Reconciliation
09. Property & Debt
10. Taxes & Insurance
11. Spending And Saving
12. Investments
13. Quicken Tools
14. Reports And Graphs
15. Backing Up Data
16. Customizing Quicken
17. Exporting & Importing
I've reviewed a dozen+ 'Missing Manual' books and I feel they are some of the best computer books EVER written. Exceptionally designed, laid out, written, they really should have been in the boxes of all the software they were written for. My reviews were all so glowing I finally started to just say BUY THE BOOK and I am not changing my stance here at all. If you use Quicken 2009 or want to become an uber-user, BUY THIS BOOK TO-DAY!!!
***** HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
Book Review: QUICKEN 2009: THE MISSING MANUAL Summary: 5 Stars
I am a new user for Quicken.
Quicken 2010 is now available.
However, considering the pricing on the Quicken 2009, THE MISSING MANUAL,
it is well worth the investment to learn about Quicken.
This book covers 98% of the information needed to learn Quicken 2010.
Book Review: clear instructions, great index Summary: 5 Stars
An easy read with clear instructions and a great index. Well worth your money either veteran or newcomer. Troubleshooter's delight.
Book Review: Quicken 2009 Summary: 5 Stars
I found the manual to be very helpful. The product does not come with any written instructions, so this manual becomes a necessity.
Book Review: Pretty good book Summary: 4 Stars
I bought this book to determine whether I should upgrade to Quicken 2009 or wait another year. Although the book is very helpful, it also helped me see that the 2009 "upgrades" weren't worth the price of the software. My two main problems are that images are not always backed and the associated files can easily become "detached" from the backup files. Also, I have had some problems with file corruption.
Still, the book is very useful, especially since Intuit will never tell you the limitations and shortcomings of their products.
