I thought I hated Intuit, then I tried this software. 1099s are a nightmare - it throws fits over "errors" in downloaded forms. It marked the name of my bank as an error!? It flagged an error in my downloaded W-2. Energy credits were a nightmare. It couldn't accept the fact that I put in solar panels, but not new energy efficient door or windows. It said those fields were not allowed to be 0. Seriously!? The interview steps were not as clearly worded as TurboTax and the overall user interface was more awkward. Just a poorly designed and error-ridden piece of software all around. NEVER AGAIN.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I used H&R tax software for many years, although it gets job done, its help context did not help at all. When I want to figure out tax terminologies and see examples, I have to google to get help.
Worst tax year ever. Unable to file with H&R Block. Send us a refund. We’ll never use this again.
Cons: Time consuming, Hard to prepare

I was unable to e-file my returns from about 9:00 PM 4/14 until 3:00 PM 4/15. I would get a bad gateway error. There was no phone support available, even on this most important day until 8:00 AM and even then, I was on hold for an hour and 20 minutes only to be told 'we're working on it' with no firm idea when it would be fixed
Pros: Easy to prepare
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

This was purchased this year and unable to process my file return. This was ongoing issue and forced me to print all 25 pages and mail. Will be looking into another tax program next year. Have used H & R for years but totally upset with this year’s experience.
Cons: Time consuming, Hard to import documents

When I could not get the software to send my return to IRS after several hours of attempts, I called for Help. I was told to wait for a program update that would fix the known issue. After another six hours I trying to update the software, I simply attempted to send it again. The program said it had already been submitted and accepted by IRS and allowed me to pay my due balance. Good thing I did not follow the instructions given by the Help tech.
