"Inexpensive Professional Tax preparation software"
5/5
What do you like best about Drake Tax?

Drake Tax is easy to use and is accurate. The program includes all states, personal, business, partnership, and corporate programs to complete the tax returns. Drake's return view/print shows exact forms that are to be filed with the government. Drake's Calculate sub-routine gives you a snapshot of the status of the return. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Drake Tax?

Drake Tax is a complete program and I do not have any items that I dislike about the program. I have been using the program since 2008 and I intend to continue using the program. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Affordable yet robust tax prep software"
5/5
What do you like best about Drake Tax?

Drake Tax is very affordable tax software which is ideal for the small tax firms. The software is very robust and pretty straightforward to use. I have been using Drake Tax for 3 tax seasons and it is great. It allows me to do what I need to do. I really love the pay as you grow option which is ideal for practices that do not do a ton of tax returns. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Drake Tax?

I wish the software wasn't so colorless and boring looking. It is all gray scaled and not fun to look at. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great professional tax software at a reasonable price"
5/5
What do you like best about Drake Tax?

Best support I have ever seen. A real person will answer your phone call within 10 seconds or less. An email will get same day response. You can send the tax return to Drake and they will show how to fix your tax problem. They are $5,000 cheaper than Pro Series Professional. Great tax portal. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Drake Tax?

When I converted to Drake Tax, I had to relearn how to prepare the tax return. Number of forms are not as robust as Lacerte Tax. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
