Have used this program for many years and know it fairly well. Was easy to use and examine status, individual worksheets, etc. Only problem, the 4 vs 5 stars was it did not update all fields regarding the net tax due leaving the impression the change had made no difference. Then, updating another issue caused the multiple change to take effect. I found this twice during my prep work and when checking the return was able to see where it had just not updated timely. Otherwise once again, my go to for tax time every year.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Fast
I would recommend this to a friend!

I have been a Mac user since the original had no hard drive. I have used Parallels and Windows on my Mac and sometimes it works okay and sometimes it's a real challenge. I have ended up buying two Windows machines just to do the business returns because of glitches with using it on a Mac and because the first machine, after a year, couldn't handle the new software - so it has been expensive. If there were a Mac version, I would likely be giving it a 5 instead of a 3.
Cons: Time consuming

All in the software worked well except the rental portion. The depreciation would not put a unique depreciation for each property. I had to use a different software to file the taxes for the client with rental property. Otherwise, the software was excellent as usual.

The personal Premium handles all the interview and filing tasks well. The Business software invariably requires manipulation of details to get the filing to work.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Easy to import documents
Cons: Hard to prepare

The premium for regular individual taxes was top shelf as usual; however the business was a little less user friendly. I was completing a 1041 and a PA-41 for my late mother's estate and I found it to be more difficult to navigate. Since I've never completed this type of return, it was even more difficult I'm sure. Overall, there were a decent amount of help directions and insight, and I will plan to use the same software next year as well. I really prefer the H&R products since they don't include a lot of fluff trying to upsell you, and you can get right into the tax forms and see what's really going on.
