Meh. What sucks about it? I just use Schwab and their web interface and sometimes their mobile app. It's fine. If you are an active trader (but why?) you can get desktop software from them. If you have issues you can always get someone on the phone and you can file paperwork via their sites messaging system. I like them better than e-trade and have been a customer for a long time.
Everything. Researching is horrible. Purchase flows suck. Fees suck.
Portfolio analysis terrible – For example on a stocks page there isn't even an easy way to see existing positions, let alone my historical purchases like when, how much and what price. It's just "here's this stocks history" not "here's this stocks history including YOU'RE history with this stock.
And on and on like that.
I'm just sick of using software that feels like it stopped improving 5-10 years ago....and figured that has to be more out there.

Not super active. Few trades a month. Mostly for fun and to get skin in companies I believe in.
Sharebuilder is horrible. Will check out Schwab thanks!
I have sharebuilder and it is great for automatic investing. What don't you like about it?
