"super easy to use" on by bigmanlars40
Pros: really user friendly and just about idiot proof,the import ability for w-2's is nice also
Cons: install time can be long while waiting for the inital update depending on your connection speed,but well worth the wait,
Summary: i've been a turbo tax user since my 2005 tax filing and i find this to be the easiest tax software to use...using the interview interface is as simple just answering the questions asked and entering the info..and the fact that you get 5 free federal e-files means that i can save my family members a few bucks by doing and filing their taxes for them...the onlt thing that prevents me from giving this a full 5 stars is that not all w-2's can be imported(really that is a function of your employer) and filing your state return can be pricey at 19.95 but you can get around that by going to your state department of revenue and file your state thru them(i know you can in illinois as thats how i do it)...all in all i am very pleased with turbo tax and it makes a yearly chore a breeze

"Not worth the risk of IRS penalties" on by PLM68
Pros: There is nothing redeeming about Turbo-Error
Cons: * errors built-in to software--treatment of soc. security income
* user interface not as good as TaxCut
* overpriced with extraneous featuresSummary: Nope. Will never use again after getting my letter from the IRS. I do not need the problems generated by Turbo-ERRORS.

"Organized and easy to use" on by dgoldie86
Pros: The program has an logical layout and covers most forms and tax areas that most users will need.
Cons: It can take awhile to learn how to access certain functions quickly.
Summary: This is good software that enables many people to file their own taxes. It seems to get a little better each year.
