Efficient Tax Prep Software
Pros
I like that TurboTax Business is easy to use. It provides prompts and moves you along the process quite quickly. I have a super small business, so it literally takes me less than an hour to get my taxes done.
Cons
The only real issue I have is the price point. However, if I were to hire a tax consultant, I am sure I'd pay double.

Totally love it. It really is more thorough than required.
Pros
The solitary thing that would improve this product is somewhat more capacity to tweak announcing.
Cons
Private alcove announcing could be somewhat more adaptable. Nonetheless, it is a minor issue in the general execution.

A capable tax management solution for small-to-midsize businesses
Overall, we are very pleased with TurboTax. While the pricing is a little higher than some of the other tax prep platforms, we find the features and funtionality, great customer support, and ease of use outweigh all of this.
Pros
TurboTax is extremely easy to use and takes little to no training to master. My favorite aspects of using TurboTax are the built-in tutorials, guidance, and help.
Cons
Using TuroTax for business is a little pricy compared to other self tax prep solutions. While it is cheaper than using a CPA or other tax preparer, I have found a few other business tax prep programs that were cheaper.

Using for the past 5 years with success
For anybody who owns a small business with limited payroll I would 100% recommend the software. I have actually recommended it to my friends who file simple 1065 and 1120s returns.
Pros
Very easy process, the system asks specific questions and based on your answers you are guided into placing the data where it needs to be. I'm very familiar with tax returns both personal and business as I am in the financial field and for about 90% of the small business/self-employed people I would recommend the software for ease of use and functionality. Also, customer service and online support services are exceptional.
Cons
This isn't a personal issue but I would not recommend the software to anybody that has significant real estate assets or liquid assets tied to their business. There are just too many areas that require a human eye for tax purposes and deductions that it may be worth spending a few thousand dollars and having a professional file on your behalf.

Non-existent support ruined my customer experience
This is the second time I have tried to use Turbotax Corporate, and I will never use this product again!! I was hopeful that the product was improved from the last time I tried it, and while it looked hopeful to start, the moment you encounter an error, you are screwed. I only gave the Turbotax Corporate a second chance, because I’m a huge fan of Turbotax for individuals and QuickBooks. I have used Quickbooks for 17 years and Turbotax for my personal tax returns since 2008. (Back when it was called QuickTax)
Pros
The desktop version of the software interfaces well with Quickbooks and updating most information with the exception of the CCA details was easy.
Cons
The CCA section of the program is horrible, and this is where the non-existent customer support is really hurting Intuit. I'm confident that the developers had a decent idea of when they built this section of the program, but the forms are not intuitive, and the context sensitive help is not helpful. I spent half an hour using the chat to try to get help, but it was probably in the top 2 of my worst experiences with customer support.

Pros
It asks all the questions so you don't leave anything out.

Yearly Turn to TurboTax to file my own taxes
Pros
Turbotax will keep prior years information saved for next years taxes if you have not had any significant changes you can easily file your taxes without having to locate documents for filing the EITC, employer information, household information etc. There is no cost to file your federal taxes with Turbotax. It sends reminders when your tax return is estimated to come. It allows for you to have access anywhere being it is web-based and anywhere you have internet access you can access Turbotax. It has a forum for questions and answers for anyone to review and a free estimation of your tax return estimator. It allows you to review your taxes for any errors or mistakes. If you remain idle too long the software will automatically log you out. It allows users to file their own taxes. They have areas to explain questions asked on taxes. It is user friendly.
With so many users it should not allow you to access your taxes and then force you to upgrade the next year and if you do not it will vanish your information in front of your face which is sort of rude if you ask me. They should just delete if after they send the information or at the end of the tax year your filing for ask would you like to take out to save next years information for fast and easy convience? People would be more inclined because they have the money to do it to be taken out. What if I do not want to upgrade and needed to amend a tax year and they erased the information what happens then?
Cons
It only saves your information if you pay to upgrade the software if you do not pay your information is lost and you have to input everything like a first time user. There is a cost for your state taxes but it does not seem to be as detailed for state taxes as it is for federal as far as claiming the EITC through State Taxes as well. Because people fraud taxes some answers in the forum or vague and for people really wanting the answer it really is not presented as a yes or no. Maybe they can have a ask a legal question regarding your taxes feature for answers to tax related questions and provide that as an additional service where the question is emailed to you. Are for an a la carte flat fee with the upgrade you have the option to have lawyer/irs agent answered tax related quesitons with definite answers provided in a general forum and have a per day usage charge deducted from taxes or something of the sort. Then you can really do your taxes without having to consult someone, then finish your taxes later.

TurboTax Business is Top Notch!
Pros
This software is extremely easy to use. It asks a series of questions and gives considerations for all sorts of things related to your taxes and, your business, specifically. It performed all data calculations for me, and I've never had an issue with my returns using TurboTax Business. I've actually had to use the Audit Defense feature twice, and it was amazing to work with the attorneys who communicated with the IRS on my behalf. It is well worth the money.
Cons
Over the years, it has increased in price. That's my only criticism. But that is also to be expected and is worth every penny. It is also considerably cheaper than the competitors.

Not as good as in the past.
Its an annual event to file and pay taxes, both Federal and State. I have used this software since it first was issued and this year was pretty much the first time I had problems. The first problem was when I tried to open an old return and it would not open claiming I had to put the purchase code in again. Well not that easy I called Turbo Tax support and they saw I purchased the software but couldn't find a key. Lucky I had a paper copy after 20 minutes somehow the line went dead. So much for support. Problem 2. Apple like to update its OS and Turbo Tax made the decision to make their software to only work on the new OS. I have not updated my computer because of old software that works and I don't have a need to spend about $2500 to update all the software just to do the taxes. I figured out a way by using someone else's computer and e-mailing my last years tax return to them and allowing it to be used with the new software. Turbo Tax should not have taken this step to make their software only to work on the newest system. This is a problem in the industry where I believe it is done to generate upgrade sales without regard to the consumer.
Pros
That is is still somewhat easy to use, but the new requirement of only working on the new MAC OS is a major problem.
Cons
That it would not work on an older computer that had all my old tax records that was used with previous editions of this software.

Great option for sole proprietorship
It has been my choice for tax returns since I started my business. It has made a dreaded task easy not to dread.
Pros
The instructions for use were clear, step-by-step, and easy for me to use. It saved where I left off, so I could work on my taxes for a few minutes at a time and come back to them at a later time.

Perfect Way to File Your Own Taxes If you do a Simple return
Pros
I have been using TurboTax to file my own taxes for about 4 years now. It's consistently getting better and easier to use. My personal information auto-populates from last year and I can import my W-2's easily. It takes me about an hour to file my taxes, quick and easy. I do not have a very complicated tax return but I always feel confident that TurboTax has asked me enough questions to make sure I am getting the maximum return back.
Cons
They charge you more to auto-populate your personal info from last year. I had a question about why I did not qualify for a tax credit this year, none of the help buttons or articles were giving me a clear enough answer. I wanted to speak to a customer service rep in person and I scheduled for them to call me but never received a phone call. When I called I had to go thru the usual automated answer/waiting on hold deal. Defeats the purpose of having a no wait option to request a phone call.

Tax time savior
I love TurboTax for organizing my finances when tax season rolls around. It walks me through every step and explains things really well. I highly recommend it for those who don't have just a simple W-2 to file.
Pros
I love that TurboTax walks me through all the potential areas of deductions and credits that I wouldn't know of otherwise.
Cons
The only thing that's a little bit of a pain is that it comes in a CD, and you have to go through a whole thing with support if you don't have a disk drive on your computer and want to download it from the internet.

Become a Tax Master
Overall I consistently use TurboTax every single year to file my taxes because I know it will be simple and reliable, they help ensure that I'm going to get the maximum tax refund.
Pros
TurboTax is one of the simplest and easy ways to file your taxes when tax time comes around. It easily syncs to payment providers like ADP so that you can easily integrate your pay stubs and W2s into the software. It also offers the ability to scan a W-2 to easily upload it and file. They explain the process really well making taxes easy to do for virtually anyone.
Cons
I do feel like they charge a bit too much for just a few more services like when you have to buy the premium version just to file your investments.
