Definitely a time saver!

I started doing my 1040 and state forms in 1970 with a pencil and calculator. I've been using Turbo tax and its predecessors for decades and just love the ease and flexibility of use. I especially like downloading interest, dividend and capital gains from my investment fund.
What's great about it: Easy to input information using format of last years taxpayer profile.
What's not so great: I needed to upgrade my Mac computer OS to 7.5. Turbo tax needs to consider OS requirements.
Pros: I bought or sold investments

2014 Turbotax experience
on March 2, 2015
Posted by: SSofHouston
A. Have used TT for many years using basic package. It always worked for me as all forms were available including investment, NSO options etc in the basic package. BUT NOT THIS YEAR. Had to keep upgrading as I needed to fill out sections (same as last few years) till it finally stopped at Premier. Very disappointed and apprehensive about next year - probably TT will come with diamond package and keep charging my credit card. Will definitely look into other products. B. Cost basis calculation for NSO and details about RSU are not obvious. Need to make it obvious. Had to web search for help and after 2 hours of going through responses finally figured it out.
What's great about it: Would have given 5star till 2013 filing experience
What's not so great: $$$$$ See below

What happened?
on March 2, 2015
Posted by: BradATL
I purchased prior to year end, since I wanted to get a jump on estimating taxes. I think I'm like most long time users, who thought if you bought Deluxe you'd have K-1 and capital gains. Appreciate you giving the refund on the upgrade.
What's great about it: Generally the same software as prior years
What's not so great: having to upgrade software
Pros: I bought or sold investments

Much better than doing it myself or paying someone

I love using Turbo tax. It is so much better than trying to download the forms from the IRS and then trying to work my way through them. I rely heavily on the guided tour because there are so many issues that I would be very confused about otherwise.
Unfortunately, i have not have any success in downloading the 1099's (DIV, INT, B, SSA, etc) as well as the 1098 forms. This means I spent an entire day typing in the necessary information. What a pain in the neck - literally! This is the one area for improvement that I would most appreciate.
What's great about it: it has all the forms I needed. It is wonderful to have a guide to work my way through the thorny or puzzling issues
What's not so great: I can't download my reports from Merrill Lynch and Fidelity, as well as my pension and social security forms
Pros: I bought or sold investments

2014 returns
on March 2, 2015

The detail that the walkthrough approach applies gives you an opportunity to contemplate if there are circumstances that have occurred during the year that you had not considered as a possible additional deductible item. Very helpful process.
What's great about it: Integration of prior year return information and State return
What's not so great: none noted
Pros: I bought or sold investments
