Reliable Simple Tax Software for Minimal Complexity Navigation Could Use Improvement.

Incentivized
Verified User
Analyst in Corporate (1-10 employees employees)

Pros

  • Guides you through a step by step process for tax filing.
  • Asks relevant questions to help you know what materials and information you need.
  • Auto calculates as you go through the filing process, flags errors at the end.

Cons

  • Navigation could be improved, including a better search function.
  • There are so many categories and sections that it can be difficult to go back and find where information needs to be corrected.
  • Provide more detailed guidance when errors are flagged. Instead of simply identifying that something is wrong, it would be much more helpful if TurboTax explained exactly what caused the error and provided clear, step-by-step instructions on how to fix it.

TurboTax for the WIN

Incentivized

Director in Finance and Accounting (1-10 employees employees)

Pros

  • keeps up with all updated tax laws for me
  • pulls in all last year's data to alleviate redundancy in entry
  • allow me to bounce back and forth between interview mode and manual entry mode. makes it much more efficient for me since a lot of the time I know exactly what form I want to use.

Cons

  • sometimes it's complicated trying to find where to ammend an entry you made. you often land on a form that does not allow direction entry correction. it can be very annoying.
