Cannot file federal online. IRS keeps shooting back to me, will not accept pin that is sent by the IRS. This is the 3rd year this has happened. Will not buy again.
Pros: Easy to prepare

The install requires an admin user, which is not unusual, but activation seems to be possible ONLY FOR THAT SAME ADMIN USER. That would be fine, except that the "Activate now" button just fails silently. No authentication dialog like the installer. No error message. Nothing. This is amateurish in the extreme. Also your chat support is nothing but a time-waster. Your phone support is friendly and keen to help, but this obvious issue is not familiar to them. Terrible out-of-the-box experience.

This software is very hard to use. I am 75 years old and it kept adding my rmd incorrectly. Kept saying I had a penalty I do not have a penalty. Disappointed!
Cons: Time consuming, Doesn't maximize refund, Hard to prepare

Seems with each passing year the program gets less and less helpful. On a very simple return I had to actually google questions I had because the program rather than explaining the subject simply repeated the lousy IRS explanation.
Pros: Fast
I would recommend this to a friend!

Very easy to use. This was the first year I sold stock. The software guided me through everything I needed to do to complete all 1099-INT, 1099-DIV, 1099-B (short and long) forms.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Fast
I would recommend this to a friend!
