Indeed. Liked the bit about

"Multiple portfolios - Allow you to track investments for multiple
people, or your own multiple portfolios."

Amazed that Quicken cannot do this in this day and age .....

Also, the NAIC has a package called Portfolio Record Keeper.

It has undergone major upgrades and facelifts in the past
ten years and is supposed to be quite good according to
product comparison reviews.

For Investments, Quicken is weak.
And, Quicken downloaded a transaction claiming that Fidelity Contrafund paid
a dividend yesterday, at least in my account, but not in my sister's
accounts. Fidelity states that no such dividend was issued.

"Portfolio Record Keeper"
" Personal Stock Monitor"
" Fundmanager"

Can any of these investment software download investment transactions from a
stockbroker or do all transactions have to be entered manually?
