I have been using the downloaded software since about 2006 and continue appreciate the guidance that it provides and being able to start with last year's info. And every year, I have been able to finish in about a day. The challenges come in the form of 1) stability, I now save after each change for fear of crashing and loosing work. This year in particular, it crashed a lot and didn't give any indication why. 2) ability to bulk load information. Would be great if where there are many rows of information to enter, I could put it in a spreadsheet and import it, then validate what was imported. An example area is 1099-B. And 3) this year the integration with my financial institution changed and didn't work. I called support and worked through troubleshooting steps, and ended up having to enter the information manually, hence my #2 above.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Fast
Cons: Hard to import documents
I would recommend this to a friend!

We use H&R Block every year. I was disappointed to purchase the Deluxe + State to find that the state download was free, but I still had to pay to file the state online. Deceptive! This should all be free, but until it is, HRB is fine.

The software works well enough. It didn't glitch or stall. I made some errors that I think should have been caught and corrected at the time. Instead, at the end, I got messages that I needed to correct a couple missing entries. I didn't understand how to get to the error location. The software was supposed to email me updates on filing. It didn't. I like this better than TurboTax but.
Pros: Easy to import documents
