Scottrade doesn't seem as up to date as other competing brokers. I don't think they offer check writing on their accounts, nor do they offer quick, easy and free transfers of cash from/to bank accounts.
The price for their trades is a little misleading too, $7 is for market orders only. If you want to do limit orders, it's extra $5, ->$12. (You can in theory get screwed with market orders, if a price spikes up a little when you place an order, you can end up being the sucker that bought at that spiked price.)
I think for example ameritrade offers better online trading system in general. It really depends on what your needs are though.
