Easy & Intuitive
on April 15, 2014
Posted by: DavidLongBeach

The tax code is complicated, so there are many menus and many questions that get asked for each possible scenario that could be pertinent, even though most are not. TurboTax does a nice job of alerting you as to what the normal and common answer to each question usually is.
What's great about it: Alerts as to the immediate impact of each input on your total tax due
What's not so great: The tax code is complicated
Pros: My job status changed this year (switched jobs, lost a job, got a raise or promotion)

Each year it gets easier

I have used Turbo Tax for many years and this year secondary to health problems and extended family needs I got started very late and thought that I might have to file an extension but finished 2 1/2 hours before the deadline. So now I breath a sigh of relief and get on with my life and try to do better at organizing my files. I remember the years when it was an awful experience. I also use the NEAT machine which also lessened my time.
What's great about it: Intuitive and less work
What's not so great: none

Overal, a pretty good tool, useful. wouldn't be the worst tool to use more than once a year, not that I look forward to tax time that much!
What's great about it: User Freindly
What's not so great: logging in and getting started is a little cumbersome

5 years a customer.

I've been using TurboTax for five years now and it has been very convenient. There are two things I'd like to see changed. When I click into the wrong section or make the wrong selection it is sometimes difficult to discard the errors and I have to go into the forms to manually change the requested information. Next to the back button I would like to see a discard button that removes the last selection and takes me back a page. Also, I don't want to give you my phone number. You have my email, that is enough. Please don't make that a requirement to e-file. I really like the Explain This pop-ups. Much better than digging in the internet for the answer. Thank you for providing a great product.
What's great about it: Simple, easy, fast, trustworthy
What's not so great: Requires phone number & hard to correct errors

Fan of Turbo Tax

Overall - I love this product and have used it for years and years. Recommend it to my friends. There are a few parts of the process where the info/help boxes are still more legalese than plain English, but other than that, the product is the only way I make it through tax season!
What's great about it: Love being taken step by step through each part of the paperwork
What's not so great: Some of the questions are not explained as simply or plainly as I'd prefer

I did our return plus my aging mothers return who now lives with us. I could not access both returns, had to redo hers all over again. Not cool.
What's great about it: Easy question guidance.
What's not so great: Not able to come back to more than one return.
