Chose Proconnect Tax Online
I like Drake because it is cost effective, has many integrated features that Proconnect doesn't have. The client portal in particular and email features make it a better product. I don't use Proconnect for personal because the cost compared with OLT for personal returns …
Chose Proconnect Tax Online
I think ProConnect Tax Online is better than competitors. As I am new to my career, the only software I have used are ProConnect Tax Online, and Thomson Reuters Ultra Tax. I prefer cloud-based software, but I think Ultra Tax is easier software to learn on. It is easier to learn …
Chose Proconnect Tax Online
I use Proconnect Tax Online for individual returns, as mentioned. The software is not as user-friendly and not efficient for a professional tax preparer to use. I use other tax software as my primary software for that reason. I use Proconnect Tax Online only when my primary …
Chose Proconnect Tax Online
PTO is a solid product for a small/growing tax firm with a finite number of tax returns to prepare. If there is a high volume of tax returns that need to be prepared, a more robust desktop software may be better suited. Desktop product may provide more integration options to …
Chose Proconnect Tax Online
Per return, cost is more effective; Proconnect Tax Online has the ability to roll over prior year's information.
Chose Proconnect Tax Online
None that I know of.
Chose Proconnect Tax Online
For many of the reasons previously stated in the review (ie. cloud based, client portal, QBO integration), I am a big fan of ProConnect Tax Online. Many competing products have been around far longer (Drake, for example, was one of the original collaborators with the IRS on the …

Intuit
Intuit has coined the term "Firm of the Future" and its products live up to that moniker. If you run a practice that is cloud based, paperless and makes use of cutting edge tools such as e-signatures, client portals, etc., then this product will be a good fit for you. If you are slow to change and want to use the traditional desktop computing environment and frequently print client draft returns for review, use wet signatures, etc. then this might not be the product for you. If you are already using some of Intuit's products and plan to implement more business clients into QuickBooks Online, I would say this product is a "must have".

Support Rating
Intuit
The support is, excellent and Intuit overall provides good support. Their customer service representatives are friendly and always assist with issues when needed. There are multiple ways to contact the support team. I have not sued them though very much for technical tax issues and primarily the customer service team when needed.

Intuit
  • Just being the administrative assistant I can't really talk on ROI - that would be for my boss to address. But since our office strives to be completely paperless efiling fits in with our paperless narrative.
