The software is easy to use, it walks you through sections that you’re not certain about and it has advanced help tips in case you have questions

My whole family uses this software to do our taxes every year. We have done so for ten or more years. I don't remember when we first started, but I wouldn't dare switch. The program saves your information from the prior years to access for the current year. It "remembers" your pertinent information and choices and auto-fills it for your review. This is a huge timesaver. It allows five returns to be filed on one license. That's exactly the number of returns my family needs. As soon as you open the program it asks to search for updates - and as you know, the IRS often adds changes after the filing season has begun. I feel confident that I have the most current rules and regulations published. It double checks your work, flags any areas of concern, then lets you electronically file or print a copy to mail. Then, after electronically filing, you can come back and have the program check the status of your claim. Because we've used it for so many years, I've had to move the old, saved files from one hard drive to another about three times as I buy newer computers. That is easy to do.I highly recommend this method of tax filing.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Easy to import documents

I have used H&R Block software for over 10 years. I find it is easy to understand and has always been the best one available. I at one time did my taxes without software. I ran around looking for forms, booklet to try and understand the fo questions. When I completed my taxes, mailing them into the IRS, only to find out I missed several deductions I could have taken to save me money. I tried other tax software programs and always went back to my H&R Block software.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Maximizes refund, Easy to import documents, Fast

I've been using this software for several years. While my tax situation isn't overly complicated, it isn't really basic either and the software seems to work fine.
Pros: Easy to prepare
