The federal return was well designed and easy to use. The state return (Pennsylvania in my case) seemed a bit clunky: some parts were confusing, and the software told me that I needed to fill out a form that wasn't included, which I had to download myself from Pennsylvania's web site. Overall, it's a lot easier than filling out forms on paper. I've been using the software for over a decade, and I'll do so again next year.
Windows desktop version used - multiple holds placed on debit card for each ATTEMPT to efile state (and federal at same time). Website down from 8:30 pm Sunday till late Monday 4/15 afternoon. Advised hold would lift 3-5 days or more. Advised to paper file. Could file extension BUT THAT IS ANOTHER CHSRGE!!
Pros: Easy to prepare
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

This is still the best tax software on the market. There's just a few annoying things. It's not the easiest to navigate, and it said my return was error free, but when I hit submit is when it detected errors.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Easy to import documents, Fast
You get the federal tax software as described, but the marketing for “one free state” is highly misleading as you separately have to pay to efile that state. Next year I’ll purchase federal, only, and submit the state return via Pennsylvania’s free online app.
Pros: Easy to import documents
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
