Quicken is a personal finance management tool developed by Intuit, Inc. Different (and incompatible) versions of Quicken run on Windows and Macintosh systems. Previous versions ran on DOS.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Quicken for DOS )〕 There are several versions of Quicken for Windows, including Quicken Starter, Quicken Deluxe, Quicken Rental Property Manager, Quicken Premier, and Quicken Home & Business, as well as Quicken for Mac.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=All Quicken Products )〕 Since 2008, each version has tended to have the release year in the product name (e.g., Quicken Basic 2008); before then, versions were numbered (e.g., Quicken 8 for DOS). Quicken's major marketplace is North America, and most of the software sold is specialized for the United States and Canadian marketplace and user base. But the core functions can often be used more widely, regardless of country; and versions have been tailored for a variety of marketplaces, including Australia, Germany, Hong Kong, India, New Zealand, the Philippines, and Singapore.〔(International Versions of Quicken ), Updated: 6/20/2011, quicken.intuit.com〕 Development of the UK-specific version of Quicken was stopped in January 2005, with sales and support ending shortly afterwards. There were also versions for Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Denmark, Ecuador, France, Mexico, the Netherlands, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Uruguay, and Venezuela.〔 ==Related products== The Quicken brand has been extended to other personal and household areas, including healthcare.
