The software itself is/was fine, but the download process to an iMac was terrible. Every time the software required an update (which was frequently throughout the tax season), the update process would fail, and I would have to uninstall the entire program and reinstall. It created a really frustrating experience.
Pros: Easy to prepare
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Needed to file a very simple return for US citizen living abroad and paying taxes to a foreign country. Given the basic flow it was unclear if wages should be in the form of W-2 or not. Later, it skipped over the Foreign Wages. I had to go into the "take me to" section to find where to enter the information. After I did this, it would not accept the address I put in. After twenty revisions I realized it needed a "State" to be filled out - which is stupid for a foreign address. It never highlighted that box as the problem, just kept highlighting the street address. Next complaint - how hard do you have to make it to save a pdf of the return? Have to click "print" then fumble around to find some option of exporting or saving as a pdf (and make sure you have the imagine fitting properly on the page - I realized last year's did not and cut off most of the numbers on the forms!) Yes, it got me through; but took ten times longer than it should.
Cons: Time consuming

We’re so happy to hear you had a great experience. We appreciate your business and thank you for the valuable feedback.
I have used H&R Block tax software for more than a decade. I am familiar with its quirks and I like the way it can automatically transfer information from prior year returns. It does everything I need and other than some print quality issues on my state return it works.
Pros: Easy to import documents
Cons: Time consuming
I would recommend this to a friend!
