Can't think of any downside, except the cost.
What's great about it: Used Turbotax for years. Simple
What's not so great: Lose knowledge of how to file manually
Pros: My job status changed this year (switched jobs, lost a job, got a raise or promotion)

Helpful and easy
on February 17, 2014
Posted by: bentakespicture
This is the first time I have used TurboTax and I found it quite simple to use. The questions asked and the hints offered along the way were helpful and made it easier to understand. I purchased this because I started a business this year and wanted help doing my taxes myself. It is a small sole proprietor business but it made me feel like I wasn't missing anything and I never felt the need to take my taxes somewhere to get them done. Would recommend to anybody, especially if you have a business.
What's great about it: Easy to use, helpful tips along the way, good descriptions
What's not so great: No real negatives, possible improvements but nothing that detracted from my experience
Pros: My job status changed this year (switched jobs, lost a job, got a raise or promotion)

Wouldn't dream of not having TurboTax
on February 16, 2014
Posted by: flatcat101
I always use TurboTax and will continue to do so. Only thing I didn't like this year was no support on form 982-took days to research this. I got a quick message that I was advised to visit a tax advisor.....ok, I get that, but I had purchased the software to NOT use one, and would've liked just a few questions to help guide me at least. This was an unusual situation and I did find help in the forum after a lot of searching. Note my own question was not answered about this. Please know that this will not discourage me or keep me from getting Turbotax next year, I definately will! I wouldn't imagine trying any other product. Thanks, Turbo Tax!
What's great about it: Carrys over from year to year, can easily use on multiple computers just by moving the file
What's not so great: a few script errors this year, sometimes if you ask a question in the forum, it's never answered.
Pros: My job status changed this year (switched jobs, lost a job, got a raise or promotion), I bought or sold investments

Easy to use great program for novice to a CPA!

When you click on the Explain More - keep it simple. Don't use accounting terms only. Use layman terms too. This way people can learn as they go.
I was very confused when helping my son file his taxes when it came to college tuition. A simple Do this or Don't do this would have been so much easier to understand.

What's great about it: walks you thru step by step OR do it yourself. Help buttons a click away!
What's not so great: Needs more layman terms.
Pros: My job status changed this year (switched jobs, lost a job, got a raise or promotion), I bought or sold investments

Strong on tax weak on help section.
on February 16, 2014
Posted by: keithxxxxxxxxxx
Been using for many years. Only run into difficulty when multiple businesses. A section describing program breakdown in area would have greatly decreased time. I fully understood forms and was able to breakdown in form content. I thought your help area was very poor in business sections but overall program is strong.
What's great about it: good for basic returns.
What's not so great: need for better tax accounting on businesses. especially multiple businesses owned by individual.
Pros: My job status changed this year (switched jobs, lost a job, got a raise or promotion)

Business Taxes - so easy
on February 16, 2014
Posted by: ChrisfromAZ
This is about my 10th year using TurboTax. I have a full time day job and a nighttime side business (mostly internet sales). TurboTax makes it very easy to do my own taxes and feel 100% sure I am capturing everything. By going through the step by step questions, they remind me of things I might have forgotten and maximize my refund.
I also dabble in stocks started funding an IRA and TurboTax made it easy - I entered my Stock Company Name and my user name and it uploaded all of my trades, dividends received, and interest. I made a lot of small trades - but filling out the tax forms on them would have taken forever if not for TurboTax. I highly recommend using TurboTax to anyone.
What's great about it: Easy to complete & review - Just follow the steps
What's not so great: My state was not ready until February & I hate to pay to efile State Taxes (Fed efile is free)
Pros: My job status changed this year (switched jobs, lost a job, got a raise or promotion), I bought or sold investments
