I am also a long time user of Quicken, 25 years. I work offline and manually enter transactions, the volume is not an issue for me. I have pretty much stuck with the basic transactions/accounts/investing information. I have some customized reports, but for anything extensive I export the data to Excel.
The versions probably after 2011 did not seem to add anything useful for me, but I did upgrade to Quicken 2017. I am staying on it for as long as they let me. I dealt with the quotes download by using the available stock price REST APIs and a little web age scraping to write a program that automatically runs every evening to download and format the quotes I need, to import them via CSV.
I export my data every month into QIF format. I plan to test importing it into MoneyDance (trial version) as a way of planning ahead should they "lock" Quicken 2017 at some point.
