As a popular finance and budgeting software for PC and Mac, Quicken released the latest version (2019) of the software on this Tuesday, with some new changes.

One of the significant changes is that Quicken 2019 introduces the web access features, which allows users to manage their finances online by using web browsers.

"We prioritize updates primarily based on feedback from these users, and adding web access was the number one requested enhancement," said Eric Dunn, Chief Executive Officer of Quicken. "As an agile, independent company, we've been able to deliver this highly-anticipated feature, among other exciting new customer-inspired updates, on schedule and with great quality."

A customizable web dashboard is created and designed for users accessing from web browsers, which allows them to switch personal view between displaying full details on all features and just showing essential information in a streamlined view.

Besides, users can check their balances, monitor transactions, view budgets, expenditure trends, past expenses, as well as other information on their accounts.
