The biggest problem I find with Turbo Tax is when I go back to change an entry and then continue I have to reenter every thing from that point to where I went back from.
What's great about it: Price is ok. Does a good job with tax's
What's not so great: Does not remember what I entered if I go back to make a change.
Pros: My job status changed this year (switched jobs, lost a job, got a raise or promotion)
In the early years of Turbo Tax (like around the yr 2000), I did everything by hand and then used Turbo Tax just to make sure everything was correct. The last 10 years I have relied solely on Turbo Tax and like it more EACH YEAR! Constant improvements to the interface while still maintaining a logical and orderly approach in accomplishing the task at hand make Turbo Tax the only choice for me.
What's great about it: Walk me thru quickly and with confidence
Pros: My job status changed this year (switched jobs, lost a job, got a raise or promotion)
Can not file State from this program. It has worked the previous 5 years I have been using this software but this year it is broken. The instructions say to choose "File" menu and then "efile options" but there is no "efile options". This is a serious flaw in the program and will prevent me from ever buying this software again in the future unless it is fixed ASAP.
What's great about it: easy to use
What's not so great: State Tax e-filing impossible
