Overall Satisfaction with Proconnect Tax Online

We use Proconnect to complete business returns. There aren't any problems with the product except sometimes it is a little difficult to use.
  • Final taxes are clear.
  • The esignature is easy most of the time for clients to sign.
  • The dropdown for selecting the right year is clear.
  • Clients complain that sometimes they can't get verified.
  • If there is a problem sometimes its updating imput.
  • There are times when I'm trying to switch from one screen to the next and it doesn't switch.
  • Sometimes the errors aren't clear or easy to fix.
  • I like that I can see how many returns I do per year and how it is divided up between tax forms. This is helpful for me to know which ones I have for my client base.
  • It's good that it imports from the previous year this saves me 25% of the time for starting the return in the following year.
  • Over time the software can very expensive in relation to the number of purchases I have made. There isn't a discount for multiple purchases and there has been a rise in costs.
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 doesn't compare. The software is just was detailed which makes it easy. I don't use a customized software for the personal returns. My business handles both business & personal and business returns and Proconnect isn't always cost effective.

Yes

Did Proconnect Tax Online live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Proconnect Tax Online go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Proconnect Tax Online again?

Yes

It has been well suited to amend a return when I had a client that needed to get it amended. There wasn't any additional charge. When it wasn't well suited was when I had another tax return from a previous CPA and couldn't import it so I had to re-create the return.
