 Re-installs worked! September 11, 2007
Susan (Boston)
2 out of 3 found this review helpful
My computer crashed right in the middle of preparing both a personal and a business (S Corp) return with this product. Fortunately, I had back-ups of the data, but needed to reinstall the software on a different machine. Having tried something similar with Intuit's TurboTax products a couple of years ago, I expected the worst (i.e., having to buy new copies, or at least pay to re-download the state forms)--so I was totally shocked when the reinstallations and re-downloads took only a couple of minutes and posed no problems.
As other reviewers have said, both programs are somewhat buggy so you do have to manually verify that calculations, etc., are correct. However, these products are no worse that the TurboTax products in that regard--they may even be slightly better. In terms of value and ease of use per dollar, the TaxCut products are the hands-down winner.
 Personal tax preparation fine; business tax return horrid July 14, 2007
Michael K. Goode (United States)

First, let me state that the personal tax preparation program is great. I would give it five stars. My personal taxes are complicated and yet the program still was easy and intuitive (my 2006 return was close to 100 pages, including 5 partnerships, a sole proprietorship, rental real estate, interest or dividends from 10 accounts, and hundreds of stock transactions).
That being said, I bought this program so that I could do my LLC (partnership tax return) return as well as my individual return. The business program was separate. It crashed multiple times (over 12 times total). The radio buttons didn't even line up with their descriptions, so it was hard even to complete the interview. Also, it would have been nice if the program explained how to deal with startup expenses (which, by the way, not even the IRS could explain to me; I had to go out and find an enrolled agent who told me how to deal with them). Doing my return should have been easy--my LLC is a simple business with no inventory and cash accounting. But Tax Cut Business turned it into an ordeal.
 Customer service stinks! March 21, 2007

The product is ok, but I am a tax professional and know where to put things. I have used Turbo tax in the past and prefer it greatly over this product. Also, I was needing to get Cd's to update my program due to trouble with my internet connection and was told that the business updates wouldn't be available until after March 30... Corporate tax returns are DUE March 15th. They were very unhelpful and rude!
 New Jersey Residents Beware March 20, 2007
Michael T. Longfellow (New Jersey)
Do not use Taxcut if you live in New Jersey and are expecting an Earned Income Credit. Bugs in the software mistakenly grant you this credit and file an erroneous return. The State disallows the credit Taxcut gave you, resulting in a bill from the state for the balance. NJ allows the credit only for total incomes of less than $20,000. You may file expecting a refund and end up owing more tax. Unforgivable from a company of "Tax Professionals" like H&R Block.
Decent - But Not as Good as TaxCut's Nonbusiness Product March 17, 2007

TaxCut arguably makes the best personal tax software products available (yeah I'm saying it IS better than Turbo Tax - I've used both - plus, it doesn't load sneaky programs onto your PC like Turbo Tax did). However, their business version isn't as refined. The interview process is limited (you need a working knowledge of filling out the various tax forms). You get the sense that Tax Cut expects most businesses to use a tax professional and they threw this product out there just so they would have an entry in the business tax software category.
However, it is definitely usable and worthwhile for those that do their own business taxes. The only SERIOUS drawback is that it lacks efiling. You must print out the forms and mail them in. This all but ensures that the IRS will make errors as they manually transfer the figures from your forms into their computers. Come on H&R Block, add efiling to this product (please).
