Purchased for this years tax season. This program should include free online filing for State return. Program advertises free State return but they then charge a steep electronic filing fee, disappointing!
Pros: Easy to prepare

Issue with saving information and importing data from prior year. Could not import W2 info from employer. Used product for the past 10 years, not very happy with it!
Cons: Hard to import documents
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

While the Federal return part of the software work well, the New York State portion left something to be desired. It probably is okay for a full time resident of NY, but as a part-year resident, I believe the software questions did not do a good job. There should have been better questions to help determine better the amount of time spent in NY and whether wages and interest were truly attributable to NY. The software abandoned me in that regard, when it should have been more questioning. As a result, I may not have received as much of a refund as I might have been entitled to. For that reason, I may switch to Turbo Tax for my 2026 taxes.
Pros: Fast
Cons: Doesn't maximize refund
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Even though my taxes are relatively simple compared to many taxpayers, I still sometimes have difficulty deciding what "numbers go where." As a retired educator, I am very accustomed to giving and following instructions, but the instructions in the tax booklets are sometimes quite confusing. I like the way this software makes it more clear what numbers I am supposed to type into each box.
Pros: Easy to prepare

We’re so happy to hear you had a good experience. We appreciate your business and thank you for the valuable feedback!
The product couldn't update itself and couldn't do key things without it. Had to update manually. Overall experience bad. Price is higher every year and experience isn't better. What am I paying more for? It's not like you rewrite it better from scratch every year. And persistent fussy irritants like fields that can't be pasted into remain from years past, too.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I have used this software since 1998. The efile limit is not accurately applied - I am allowed to efile 10 returns (all types) and they are stopping me exactly one short of the ten I need. NO ONE to talk to. I also cannot figure out why it's assigning two states to everyone just because I have downloaded two states. The software is glitchy and support is essentially non-existent.
