It has issues, but it is the only software that can do everything I need it to, and it does it fairly well. I'd say it has gotten more polished and stable over the past few years, not less. Leaves a lot to be desired, but nothing else comes close if you don't have simple, basic finances. I've got 20 years worth of data in it and being able to pull reports on prior years and track all investments in one place is of value to me.
I do not know what you mean by "perform as expected" but Quicken has had me able to have a complete record of near forty years of financial data readily available. It managed my business and personal income, bank accounts along with loans and mortgages. It manages all my brokerage accounts along with IRAs 401Ks etc. and does all that down to the transaction level. End of year I have reports for tax and income both personal and business ready to go at tax time
It is almost a miracle if you think about it and a few bugs that may have freaked me out in hindsight are almost for sure expected considering what it does.

Recently, something happened to my 2016 install where it would lock up. I suspect the db got corrupted or just became too big so I created a copy and basically deleted tons of old unused account and now it's stable but I miss looking at what junk I spent $ on back in 30 years ago.
Many are built in/ premade but you modify or create your own and add accounts and transactions.
I do not know how I would manage without it. Do keep in mind your reports will only be as good as the data you put in and keep track of. To pull a good personal financial report you will have to have all your asset and liability accounts at least added. You can or can not get down to doing transaction level entry and see below for more thoughts on that.
If you just need a one time or on occasion personal financial statement for net worth and liabilities you may be able to do that simpler and easier with one of the app or web based services out there that keep track of net worth. I would not get Quicken to just do that on occasion but highly recommend it to just keep track of your life and finances.

One of the most important things i learned is that if I am disciplined and paying attention to money a little I can watch my net worth grow and it is while I strongly advise anybody to keep track of your finances at some level. I can look back and see how I went from a clueless twenty something with good income but no savings or net worth to learning to grow my net worth over a period of years. Nice to have hard data showing I did something kind of right in life and have hard evidence to support it.
As it is now, Quicken is not really a subscription at all if you do not sign up that way and iust retail software with a one year licence like you can purchase here. They had such negative feedback from users as to a subscription model that they made that change and I'm afraid if more people sign up for the recurring credit card charges they will go the full subscription route that Adobe and others have went. If it was a better price that way that would be one thing but at the same price this is the much better and safer deal
What they sell on their site is a different thing and they sell you a recurring charge be it monthly or yearly. Corporations make make billions from recurring charges that people often forget about or don't use anymore. They are much like gift cards and should never be recommended as a slickdeal as they are only slick for the corporation.

In conclusion, signing up via the website (as I forgot to mention I did last year) is of no less benefit than the retail manner. Either way, you renew when you want to and no harm done. You are allowed to continue using the program (albeit just the data) or you can renew via them or here at NewEgg. I do NOT use the transaction downloads or anything else really. I just use it as a fancy check register. I tried making my own, but even non-subscription this has more benefits.
One man's trash is another man's treasure. You do you.
Edit: Forgot to mention I canceled renewal long ago so there is no surprise charge having to reverse. Don't recall when, probably after purchasing the subscription. The renewal price they want is $72. No thanks. Will buy it retail or on their site at 50% off down the road.

If you buy retail you buy a license that gives you one year use of the software. All software has kind of worked like that, some ran longer or could be nudged along but usually features or changes came along that required another purchase of a license if you wanted improvement and continued good functional use.
Many other software packages do the same and they are not subscriptions. Older versions of Quicken expired in two years before the would block online downloading but back then the software was near double this price. I guess we could have considered that a two year "subscription" but it basically works exactly the same way now. I used to have to pay again every two years and now it is one at around half the cost. Care to explain why I should be upset? What is all the uproar about? The bottom line is that I am happy to pay around forty a year to get the value it brings me.
It only becomes something you subscribe to if you choose to go on their site and subscribe. If you do not like subscriptions do not do that and just buy the one year licence like you can get here and you get to use it for a year till the license expires. You can grab another license and add it to continue using. Installed software has worked like that forever.
Yes they are playing games and trying to make it appear an subscription and the more they can fool people to sign up on their site and believe it is one will make them more likely to switch to a real subscription model. The fact that you and others chose to subscribe with them on their website will be used by the marketers and money counters in the company to push harder for a true subscription model like Adobe has.
You are cursing the goose that gives the golden egg right now and ready to strangle it over pennies while ignoring it's tremendous value to you. Kill it and see what you get. If anything Quicken should be getting praised a bit for deciding not to do a real subscription model
I don't like paying for things but I estimate at 40 years of use that Quicken has cost me $800. For what it does that is an extraordinary value. That is what I would pay and accountant in a few months. $800 or $40,000 is not a hard math or value equation to understand. Even you say you see its value yet curse them for bringing it to you. When I find great value in things I do not mind paying for them as I do not lose in the transaction but gain wealth and value. You can do the same and should be happy about it not moaning and being upset like it is some injustice.
I'm not you enemy here and have been advising you the best way to keep Quicken non subscription and you fight and argue every step of the way like I am trying to do you wrong, Do yourself and us a favor and buy the retail packages or key cards when they pop up on sale and forget the online monthly or yearly "subscription" charges that you have to worry about tracking. You will have a code ready for the next time it expires and you wont have to choose to pay full price at their site.

I agree with you that if EVERYONE (or most) buy directly from their site, they will forego the retail version as it would be an unnecessary cost to them for the physical content and wholesale pricing. However, Quicken does have "sales" on their site from time to time although I am not signed up for notifications. I buy from whoever is cheapest. I AM on SD ya know?

And no, my data is not on a shared drive and I don't turn off my computer without shutting programs and the system properly. ([rant]speaking of shared drives, one would think that in 2024 Quicken would figure how to use a database on a shared drive reliably. I mean, for chrissakes, Emacs has been gracefully handling simultaneous editing of files for multiple decades IIRC[/rant])
Why don't you trying googling it. Links to it from slickdeals are blocked.

I just ran it now and it reports no problems that have popped up. When I did get the errors previously I did not start fresh. I'd recommend maybe validating more often and make sure to keep backups. I to am most interested in the current year and probably don't need all spending transactions but it is nice to have the record. It is critical to have all the investment records and Quicken has kept that good from when I started back when the internet and online investing was just getting started and we were all going to be rich investing in the internet. I was way behind in that and but did balance many years of transactions and all my numbers came out spot on. I do find some of the brokerage downloads do not get categorized properly but that is a problem with what they report to Quicken. Fixing at time of import makes short work of it if I keep up with it.
Yes it does have bugs on occasion but I find the fact that it managed all those decades almost a miracle. I know nothing in life that is perfect but still must pay for value when I find it knowing as with all things it will have quirks, bugs, downsides or obstacles to overcome.
I can curse the people that bring that bring that good and value to me and wish they were perfect or I can pay the price for what I find value in and call it a win. If I gave up on all software that had bugs I'd have none to use. All these gifts we have are newly created by people doing things I little comprehend, I try not to be to hyper critical.
IMHO they can leave the database sharing off it it means less chance of data corruption. They can probably do that but it will probably bring an increase in cost and a decrease in performance. Luckily for us all Ford was not shut down early on as their user base were so outraged by cost, flats and mechanical issues. I try not to curse and be to antagonist to people that bring small miracles to me at low cost. I can complain but my alternative is an accountant at thousands per year ad tens of thousands over the period I have been using the software. Accountants to have there issues and bugs. One I used cashed my check and sent nothing to the IRS May father was paying one $400 a month in the mood seventies to just keep track of income expenses and receipts and taxes. I can do all that in some minutes in the evening during the year.
