    Reviewed by: thubbard

    Updated:05-06-08

    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.

    Duration of ownership:

    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.

    Duration of ownership:1 Months

    Strengths: Consistant with past product releases

    Weaknesses: You have to hunt for lowest price, I paid net $41 including shipping

    Overall Evaluation: I highly recommend Audit Defense. I was audited last year and this was the best $35 I've ever spent. I had to spend several hours with an Audit Defense CPA, but they represented me in court.

    Duration of ownership:4 Years

    Strengths: Has all the information you need to file your return

    Weaknesses: Has many degrees of program that are purchased separately.

    Overall Evaluation: Considering you can get the basic program from the IRS to file you taxes, Turbo Tax seems to charge an inordinate fee for their programs in varying degrees. They have no logic to their upgrade levels of pricing and seem to charge what the market will bear. It is best in a case like this to shop around using a site such as Price Grabber to find the best price.

    Duration of ownership:

    Strengths: Easy to use, and prints only what you need to send. It also backs up the Application, data file, and the finished return in PDF format to CD if you like. I found that nice.

    Weaknesses: You must go to the website to verify that your updated Application and forms are the final version. I did not attempt to send my return until I verified that it was.

    Overall Evaluation: I have used TurboTax for a few years now, and am happy enough not to even look at TaxCut again. TaxCut stopped producing the TaxCut for the Mac a couple of years ago, so I was left to try TurboTax. I did and it worked out well. I really like the feature that transfers last year's data (if it applies) to this year's form. It also does a final review to catch any glaring errors in form or math. Having used MacInTax, I'm not a new tax software user. Premier has worked well this year handling the changing life events that all people face as they get older. Nice product.

    Duration of ownership:1 Months

    Strengths: Ease of use, clear concise questions and good navigation

    Weaknesses: Use of Multistate tax programs is week, particularly in regard to income assignment to seperate states, for example assigned NY State income correctly, but PA income assigned as sum of both states.

    Overall Evaluation: Overall, continue to be very satisfied with Turbo Tax, again with the exception of multi state income tax filings. Several collegues have complained of this error and in some cases when not caught, resulted in incorrect taxes.

    Duration of ownership:2 Months

    Strengths: covers mouch -kept up to date with updates - popups that will exsplan what it means - layed out in a orderly way

    Weaknesses: cost more money for E-File, Autit Insurance, to have some real person one review it

    Overall Evaluation: The program installed with no problems, and updated its self before I began. There aresome questions it ask you about the big events in your life that could cost or save you money. It seem to cover all the areas in income and deductions. I often had to read information that was handy in the popups to answer my questions of what was and what was not included as deductions.
