Simple Enough

First timers, Turbo Tax asks you all the questions. Warning: read the remarks carefully.
Somethings the taxpayer won't know and unfortunately Turbo Tax doesn't explain. Example: Adjust to 1099 Int ... Interest .

What's not so great: The taxpayer won't know and Turbo Tax doesn't explain.

Great tool. Not all needed entries are prompted.

If I do not use the same computer as last year, I do not get the previous years' information transferred. It then does not "walk me through" some items, such as property depreciation, previous pins, etc.
What's great about it: Walking through the catagories.
What's not so great: Cannot retreive information from previous years!

After submitting my return it was rejected but I understood why and help was available. Great product for dummies like me. :)
What's great about it: Took me step by step through the whole process and questioned me when I wasn't sure if I answered correctly.
What's not so great: Tough to come up with any.

My Review

I have been using TT since 1995 and know my way around pretty well. It would be nice to have the option to open TT in forms and not always step-by-step.
What's great about it: Easy to use
What's not so great: Only opens in step-by-step

Good and Basic

Turbo Tax handles all basic returns gracefully. It has the capacity for handling a little more complexity, but it requires knowledge on the part of the user. For example, I found the questions associated with line 29 of the 1040 misleading, and an improper response could be expensive.
With some effort, Turbo Tax could improve it's handling of more complex situations, and pick up a large share of returns.
What's great about it: Does a good job of a basic tax return. With some applied knowledge, can handle more complex returns
What's not so great: Slightly more complex situations require personal knowledge in order to complete,

Better than ever!

I have been using Turbo Tax for a number of years and it has always been an excellent product. Tried to help my kids with their taxes using other programs, ended up exasperated and brought the information home. Not only was Turbo Tax much easier to use, it saved them money! Only disadvantage is they are calling on me every year.
What's great about it: Easy to navigate, most questions were already answered, nice having comparison with last year.
What's not so great: Washington State has no income tax. Didn't need to be asked so many times if I wanted to file one.
