Don't know how I could do without it

I've been using it for years.
My mother died recently. The assets I inherited included some IRAs and tax-deferred annuities, which made my tax situation more complicated than usual, but TurboTax helped me through it.

What's great about it: Straightforward
Pros: I bought or sold investments

The Turbo tax software continues to improve and delivers value. The task of computing and filing taxes is as much fun as a root canal without anesthesia - Turbo Tax makes it much less unpleasant. Thank you, TT! Worth your weight in gold...
What's great about it: Logical and clear.
What's not so great: None.

Organized and Smooth

This is my first time filing with TurboTax; previously, I used a CPA who was charging me a lot and not providing value.
I got TurboxTax one week before deadline and wanted to give it a try. The software has worked great: the questions were easy and flowed smoothly and followed a logical pattern. I had no frustrations with it.
I would like to see some improvements:
1. Property tax refund for cars -- my state (VA) has property taxes for cars, there is no direct place to put it. I had to wedge it into the home/property tax section.
2. There are free-form text options for some deductions (such as "looking for work" expenses). Would be nice if these are formalized into drop down items
3. Help: Product has very good help, but these are still areas where help is lacking. For example, VA allows "allocating" income to both spouses to see if a lower tax might apply. There is no help in that screen. I would like to have seen: (1) what this means, (2) why you may or may not want to do this and (3) how to determine the amounts given that accounts are mingled -- sometimes it may just not be possible. Would be nice to have read this from the help sections as opposed to spending an hour searching the net for answers.

Overall, great experience with TurboTax and I will try this again next year!
What's great about it: All the questions were comprehensive and organized
What's not so great: Some use cases need improvement
Pros: My job status changed this year (switched jobs, lost a job, got a raise or promotion), I bought or sold investments

Another Care-Free Tax Filing Year
on October 15, 2014
Posted by: 9Procrastinator

I have been using TurboTax for more than 10 years now and find one of the best features is the consistency of the software from year to year. Yes, there has been some changes over the years, but they have been kept to a minimum. If I was to change anything, I would provide the option to select the "Do not ask for the option of importing information" when entering investment activity after the first input rather than after the third as in the current (and previous) version.
What's great about it: Consistency

Just as satisfied as ever. I have turboTax back to 3.5" floppies. You've never let me down. Even when audited (once) I came out a winner. Thanks.

Better each year
on October 15, 2014
Posted by: davidfharris
from ATLANTA, GA
I use Quicken connected to all my accounts so filing taxes is a breeze each year with the import into Turbotax. Saves time, money, and my refunds are better than when I used an accountant because Turbotax finds more deductions.
What's great about it: easily understood questions on walk-thru interview
What's not so great: can't copy/paste home mortgage interest
