Yes, I have this device is amazing. You can do almost everything I also do investing in the stock market, About the security all depends of the Wifi connection you use. If you have you own wifi service provider with a password, you don't have to worry about it , but if you use a public wifi you always need to be careful even with a laptop or any device. Just consider that you always will need a wifi connection in order to work in this amazing device.

Having used Chromebooks for banking and investing since 2010, there is nothing available that is more secure than ChromeOS. I pity the person that still uses any OS less secure for on-line banking, bill paying, investing etc. No viruses, keystroke loggers, etc - no software programs get downloaded and installed into the operating system unlike the old-fashioned OS's.

Chrome OS is very secure (Google regularly rewards hackers for breaking into its OS), and most banking websites have SSL (https) encryption enabled, so this combo is IMHO more secure than Windows. I do not recommend doing any banking on un-encrypted public Wi-Fi, however.

Yes, you can go to your banks website with no problems at all. Very secure unless your bank is has a problem.

With the newer credit cards you have no choice. Just make sure you get all the proper security numbers and signature.

Yes it can. But you will be able to locate it once it goes online. Make sure to setup security options though. Or download androiod device manager or avg free.

If you mean a password, no there is no lock. However, all the checkbook calculator stores is the balances and a review of the transactions you have entered. It does not store the account or routing numbers. This works well for me.

Best and safest way is to go to their website and to verify by either e-mail or a phone call,thats what I did to be 100%sure.JK

yes you can. you have to order the checks that are made for Quicken. Are you planning to use Quicken for personal or for business? If you want it for business I recommend QuickBooks instead. It does a better job with reports.

Yes. However you won't get any updates and you won't be able to download cleared transactions from the banks and you won't be able to enter payments in Quicken and then sync with your bank. However there are loads of features that don't need the internet like budgeting, check register etc. Even if I wasn't on-line I would still find it indispensable.

If the question is, will you be able to pass it through security without taking out your laptop, than the answer is No.

I haven't tried but i think they would allow it. I've brought it to other secure locations and made it through security with no problem.

Yes. We do often and have not had any problems depositing them via mail, atm, or teller.

I think it helps but best to use all possible safeguards. I like having a separate wallet just for credit cards.

It will work, however, it is simply an external HD which you can access from other locations. Some people make a backup to an external HD and keep that dive somewhere other than their house such as in the bank safe deposit box, etc. Also, copy photos to a true cloud such as Amazon, Dropbox or Google and they should be safe.

Yes! I run two accounts on it, syncs up well with the bank and credit cards. I know what money I have, if I remember to add it to the register when I get home!

It seems pretty secure, but like anything I'm sure if you really work that you could break in. That goes without saying, you could break into a car house as well. I think for it's purpose, it's a pretty good level of security.

You can't link any, which I prefer because is it more secure. You just download the bank data and import it. As far as how many accounts can you work with inside the system, probably 30. But less is better and easier to manage.

Yes you will need some form of a"always on internet". I have that at both of my places with this system and we love it. we have the Nexia System and use it very often to allow persons to enter the property withouth us having to leave a key. The system tells us when someone uses an assigned code or attempts to enter without a code.
