 Can Do Multiple Returns November 25, 2007
0 out of 1 found this review helpful
For moderately complex tax returns, I have found TaxCut a little frustrating in places, but it gets the job done at a good price. One nice thing: you can enter and save multiple returns (for your kids, your aunt, or various pro-forma returns) with no hassle.

It did a good job until it ported stock information from Quicken. It ported two copies of each transaction. Lucky I made money in the market, or seeing double the amount would have been a shock.
works just as well as turbotax for less $$$ July 22, 2007

taxcut is a little simpler than turbo tax in that the questions are not as specific or detailed. turbo tax is probably better suited for people who are familiar with filling out tax forms. having said that, it does your taxes accurately and costs less. support was great. much better than turbo tax. they seem to care more about service after sale than intuit ever has.
A reasonable guide to an unreasonable form(s) July 8, 2007

Ive used Turbo Tax until last year. I thought for the price I would take a chance on Tax Cut. It was after all a substantial price difference.
Right away I though the learning curve for TaxCut was a little steeper & it seemed I had to actually do some thinking when it was asking me questions. (Oh Darn!) The phraseology was slightly confusing but not overwhelming.
However, I got through it, the return was correct & it wasnt so difficult that I will go back to TT next year. I think TT is a better product that seems to have been thought out more, but that could be that TT has been around for much longer, I believe. Turbo Tax is far more expensive but I dont think the benefits of TT ( at least in my case ) justify the extra cost.
As far as the e-file, I have never used it & dont really care about that.
I just need a sensible guide to doing my senseless tax forms & Tax Cut was a great help & worth the minimal cost.
 Worse than Prior Versions May 25, 2007

On the Macintosh side, I don't know what happened to this product during the one year they skipped development (2005 tax year) but I was very disappointed with this year's version. Particularly if you are a business owner or sole proprietor!
In the end there was no harm done because I decided I needed to go to a real accountant anyway for business purposes... but the flow of this year's application was very disjointed and inconsistent IMO. In the past the forward and back functions worked as you would expect (more or less like a browser), but here depending on which page you jump from, you might go from the end of a section back to the end of the last section or beginning of the current, instead of to the last page.
Also my accountant found at least two flaws in the interview flow, and at least one calculation error based on the interview answers. Not recommended at all for 2006 unless you are filing late and work strictly on a W2 basis, with no complex investment or deduction options needed.
