Quicken For Mac Html Null

Quicken is the most popular financial software package, on both the Windows and Mac platforms. It has far less competition as far as Mac users go, as second place Microsoft Money doesn't have a Mac. Quicken QFX file import to SQL Server. View Options. No one has ever imported a Quicken QFX file into SQL Server? I did manage to find a database program for MAC OS X that will.

We’ve been using Quicken for Mac for the past year. I’m satisfied with the software, but I no longer trust their pricing and renewal. We paid $60 for Quicken for Mac 2015 on 7/31/2015. On 1/8/2017 we paid $48.41, presumably for 1 year of subscription service. On we paid $32.35; we probably switched from a “deluxe” plan to a basic plan.

Today I received an email requesting renewal: Your Quicken membership will expire on. In order to continue enjoying all of the benefits of Quicken, including connected services such as bank downloads, stock price updates, account sync, and free phone support, please click here to renew your plan. The link goes, however, to Quicken for Windows where we are shown as “deluxe” plan for $50.

Ok, so that’s presumably a mistake — albeit a bad mistake. When I go to I can see the Mac plans - Starter at $35 (so probably a 15% price hike from last year) and “most popular” Deluxe for $50.

I can’t compare to last year but it looks like most of the features added in the past year or so require the “deluxe” option now. Which leads me to reconsider my previously relatively positive attitude towards software subscriptions.

I’ve been generally in favor of subscription pricing for software. I think Microsoft has done a great job with Office 365. It does, however, come with temptations for vendors.

Subscription pricing makes it too easy to hide price increases and game features. It promotes “”.

I think Quicken has fallen for that trap. I don’t trust them now. We are evaluating options.
