Duration of ownership: 5 Years
Strengths: This product is "dumbed down" to the point of being demeaning. It's extremely tedious to use.
Weaknesses:Contrary to Intuit claims, Premier did not reduce my taxes from the amount calculated by Turbo Tax Basic.
Overall Evaluation: The program does not recognize when it has been updated, whether from download or from the update CD. It repeatedly demands an internet connection, connects to the Intuit server for one second, and then reverts to user interaction.

Duration of ownership:
Strengths: The program leads the user step-by-step, with nothing omitted that I can see.
Weaknesses:The cost is the same whether or not a state form is needed.
Overall Evaluation: I have used this program for some years, and the questions have been made clearer and more comprehensive each year. While the IRS publications are accessible from the program, the less I have to refer to them and try to comprehend them, the better I like it. I am a retiree with income from pensions, IRA, and investments, and TurboTax covers these well.

Strengths: excellent, very easy to use
Weaknesses:none
Overall Evaluation: could not make doing taxes any easier. Ordering was very easy, installing was simple, updates are done automatically. The "walk-thru" is superb. Price was a value ordering thru Price Grabber. Thoroughly pleased.

Duration of ownership: 3 Weeks
Strengths: Easy to install on Windows XP Pro, works well for both Federal and NY state taxes.
Weaknesses:Many updates. The repeated updates are a PITA.
Overall Evaluation: The import from Quicken was easy to do and worked well. This saves a great deal of time and prevents errors with interest and investment entries. I highly recommend the combination of TurboTax and Quicken.

Duration of ownership: 2 Months
Strengths: Does a good job of interviwing the tax payer. Very easy to use.
Weaknesses:Having used Turbo tax for many years, the new interface adopted this year seems "cheap" in appearance, compared to [revious vresions.
Overall Evaluation: Whay can I say? I have been using Turbo Tax since 1998, and am generally pleased with the product. This year, because I was getting a large return, I elected to file electronically and pay the fee. I filed in late February, and had a check direct deposited by the 11th of March.
