Pros: The interview process is simple, straightforward, and thorough. Well done! Cons: None.
I have been using TurboTax for the past four years and have been very pleased. This year it took all of one hour to complete my taxes and e-file. In the following paragraphs, I’ll take you through the steps of filing using TurboTax adding in what I...
Pros: Does the math for you, creates beautiful paperwork, even a novice can file their taxes Cons: tax language is still too confusing
For the first time since my late teens, I decided to file my own taxes. It was not because I wanted to do the work but because I finally thought I could do it myself with the help of tax software. I do not have the most difficult tax situation;...
Pros: Quick electronic transactions. Thorough. Cons: Takes a long time asking LOTS of questions. Lots of jargon.
I stopped using H & R Block after they messed me out of $500 worth of returns 12 years ago. They "forgot" even after they "checked it twice", to give me an Earned Income Credit for my son. They even charged me $100 to do so! I have either used Turbo...
Pros: lots of tax advice for the amateur Cons: poor online support, faulty to useless update routines

Pros: fast, accurate and fun to do Cons: don't need deluxe edition
Don’t go to an accountant to do your taxes! There are so many great software products to help you do them quickly and accurately. TurboTax by Quicken is one of the best. I’ve been using this product for the past 7 or 8 years and have only come across...
Pros: Easy..Convenient..Inexpensive..Fun (almost) Cons: You may do better with a professional tax preparer.
Except for the one year we had them done by H+R Block (gag),
I have done our taxes myself. Many people swear by, and for good reason, the use of professional tax preparers. But, if everything is pretty much the same as last year, you can save a lot...
Pros: Reliable, Easy to do, rapid refund available Cons: none known
Ah, taxes..one small word that sends people into a panic when considering doing it themselves.
I've been doing my own taxes for several years now using Quicken Turbo Tax , and like many other's was afraid the first time I did it myself. I am...
Pros: Easy, painless, and can be free! Cons: Only free if you make under $20,000.
I really like this software! I haven't purchased a copy, though, because the TurboTax website allows me to use the software right at the website. Not only that but you can get your electronic filing for free if you're able to file 1040EZ. Free filing...
Pros: ease of use, user friendly Cons: price higher than other tax prep software
I have been using turbo tax software for the past three years. I had always gone to H&R Block to have my taxes done but it was getting rather expensive. I decided to give turbotax a shot and I love it.
Pros: Great tool, saves time, saves money, quick and easy Cons: C'mon... it's taxes!
I always start off any OS or software reviews with a description of the system requirements. Why? Because... if you don't meet them then you don't need to know much else about the product. So, here goes...
Pros: Very Easy to Use By Answering Questions Cons: Costs $19.99 plus $11 to file electronically
Last year I filed my federal tax using TurboTax.com, but this year I found it impossible to access this web site. At first I thought the problem was with my old computer, but when I tried on my work computer, I encountered the same problems.
Pros: Fast, efficient, and easy to use program Cons: You still have to organize those little slips of paper in your tax file
I am always surprised by the number of people who have their taxes professionally prepared at an exorbitant rate. Perhaps I'm a bit biased because I'm an accountant by trade, but the reality is that the vast majority of folks out there really could...
Pros: Accurate and easy Cons: I didn't use it sooner
I will be the first one to admit that I was a huge skeptic when it came to using a program like this to do my taxes. It is just not something I wanted to mess around with.
For the past two years I have used it only after doing our taxes the...
Pros: Turbo Tax can also be used as a planning tool year round. Cons: A constant reminder of the evils of the IRS.
The horror and shock of April 16th has worn off a bit by now, but this is not the time to forget about the evils of the IRS until next year. Remember, they are a relentless enemy, and as such the only way to successfully combat them is to prepare and...
Last year I had a good experience with H&R Block's online tax return software, but it was a slow experience. This year I turned toward the more popular Quicken TurboTax. And, boy am I glad I did!
