Looking Ahead: What’s Next for Quicken

My December post about Intuit’s decision to “end of life” Quicken Online and several recent press interviews have stirred up quite a bit of interest from the Quicken community about what’s next.  Since your feedback drives our product development, I thought I would say thanks to all of you who wrote in, and address a few pressing concerns.

•   Quicken Online End-of-Life – The Quicken Online “end of life” does not have any impact on Quicken Desktop products.  Quicken Online users will be migrated seamlessly over to Mint.com, preserving all of their account history and account connections.  On Mint.com, they’ll be able to track their investments, avoid more bank fees, and find more savings opportunities with a completely free product – while maintaining aspects from Quicken Online (like manual transaction entry).

•    Unified Platform – Instead of having three platforms – Quicken PC, Quicken Mac, and Mint.com – that are largely incompatible and have disparate feature sets, longer term (and a big caveat is this could be years away), I’d like to move personal finance to a unified platform.
