The premium individual software was top notch, however, the business software was from the 80's from the standpoint that it was far less intuitive and caused me enough frustration that I went to a CPA. Every problem encountered and solved created even more issues.
The Business program isn't very good. I've used this product for many years. Some years, the business program doesn't roll forward and forced me to reenter legacy information. It is very disappointing and doesn't flow as well as the individual program. The individual program is ok but not great. It is sometimes difficult to dig down to where you need to go to clear errors that come up in the accuracy review. However, if you are a novice in tax preparation, the flow of clicking screen to screen is a very good way to help you navigate the tax rules and prepare an accurate return. However, you need to pay attention to the questions and make sure you answer appropriately which sometimes requires a click to learn more. Overall happy buy having worked in public accounting the program is lacking a bit.
I used the website to determine which software I needed. I answered the questions and it recommended the Premiume with Business. I bought it. When I answered the questions in the business software at the beginning, it said to just use the premium software which I have been using the last few years. As a result, in a nutshell, I overpaid for software, I did not need. Not very happy.
Better than other products, but still needs two improvements. 1) Rephrase the 401k interview question from "actual contributions" to "tax-deferred contributions" to make it clear that Roth amounts should not be included. I had to amend 2021 due to confusion here. 2) Make it possible to e-file with a Qualified Business Income deduction that combines Schedule C income and Schedule E partnership income. Such a pain to have to file on paper for such a significant tax reduction.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Easy to import documents
