The cost of the H&R Block software is significantly less than the best known brand. The features and ease of use is only slightly less than the other brand.
I have been using this for many years now and am satisfied with its functionality. Very helpful navigation through all required information in simple question/answer format makes the tax filing a breeze. Its very comprehensive and full of guides / explanation where needed. Imports several tax forms from various banks, organizations etc and automatically puts numbers in appropriate places. Would highly recommend it.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Easy to import documents, Fast
Seriously, I've been using this program for over 20 years, and the lord willing, I will use it for the next twenty years. . . . Unless AI, Skynet, and the robots take over, then they will know years in advance how much I owe the government to use on useless pork.

This is sixth year I've filed using H&R Block Deluxe software. It's straight forward to use except for one investment. H&R Block Deluxe is not designed for reporting an energy producing royalty trust. After data entry the final printed copy omits the name of the royalty trust company. The heading is blank.
