I've been using Turbo Tax since the second year it came out. Looked at others, but never had a need to switch. I've talked to others who do not use Turbo Tax and they don't seem to be impressed by theirs. Easy to follow for a business, help is always available if needed, reasonable cost and State and Federal filing is included.
What's great about it: Easy to use, takes you through all tax forms required.
The "Surprise" was I only missed checking two boxes! Checking those two omissions and my returns were done!
Really demonstrates that TurboTax data entry process has finally got it right. Keep it up!
Data Source still needs work. Right clicking on every computed number needs to always be effective. That's how your customers can understand "why" the number is what it is and not have to waste time calling for help, looking for differences on schedules, or ignoring possible errors.
For example, when there are state "adjustments" to federal calculations, a right click should display the source of the change.
TurboTax can be so much more than tax return filing by helping taxpayers, your customers, better understand the taxation process and how TurboTax is so helpful!
What's great about it: "Review !!!" What a Surprise!
Some worksheets are not linked to the relavent tax code. And some questions are hard to understand, mostly due to terminolgy. Also, Prompts to synominous terms would help.
This is convenient to use and the cost was good, but I don't like having to go back and forth to enter items. Then trying to figure out where to enter something after the fact. It would be nice it they showed the forms out to the side or you could enter the area and go right to it.
What's great about it: Ability to go back where you left off
