IRA basis for non-deductible IRAs is always incorrect; doesn't pull forward correctly and hasn't for a number of years / TT versions. Some functions seem a little buggy (like clicking on "update" and nothing happens), the behind the scenes machinations not very well-explained most of the time, and tax exempt dividends lumped into interest instead of DIV. Seems to be getting a little worse each year i.e. more issues.
What's great about it: Relatively easy
What's not so great: IRA Basis always incorrect year after year
Pros: I bought or sold investments

Takes the drudgery out of filing taxes.

I have used TurboTax Home and Business for a number of years now, and, as a small business owner, I like the depth that the program goes into to ensure that all my business activities are accounted for when developing my Schedule "C" as part of my Federal filing. Since I use QuickBooks as my business software, I appreciate the effortless integration between QuickBooks and TurboTax - it eliminates a significant amount of redundant data entry requirements to build the forms. That one item alone makes TurboTax my singular choice for tax time preparation.
What's great about it: Clean install; logical progression of data; user friendly; clear explanation of data items, if needed.
What's not so great: Text and form size not adjustable (that I could find) - would have liked larger font/display.

TurboTax is relatively easy to use, walks you through step by step for each area of your return. The only issue I ran across is when printing forms out to mail in, the very bottom is cut off.
What's great about it: Easy to use
What's not so great: seems to cut off bottom of printed pages

Due to a 40,000 exclusion for pension income in Kentucky, my federal itemized deduction for sales tax is greater than the state income tax deduction. Turbo tax tells me that is the case but then asked me which I wanted to take. I almost missed selecting the larger deduction. I suggest the software should select the greater of the two and then tell you, rather than the other way around. But, you are the experts so I assume it is that way for a reason. I have used Turbo Tax for as long as I can remember and would not consider using any other software.
What's great about it: Input is so easy. Electronic filing was a snap.
What's not so great: Itemized deduction state income tax deduct vs sales tax deduction is not automatic.
Pros: I bought or sold investments

Used TurboTax for many years

I have used TurboTax for over 10 years. It makes it very easy to carry over standard information and make comparisons from year to year. I find the systematic entry system easy to follow. However, sometimes when it is necessary to go back and change an entry, difficulties can be encountered. Also sometimes it is necessary to go to the forms to make an entry or correction. This year most times when I opened the program it said there was an update which I had to download. It seemed like a lot of updates, and maybe my MacMini was not retaining the update each time.
All in all, TurboTax makes completing and filing tax returns and maintaining records very efficient. I plan to use it again next year.
