"Great for simple tax returns, more difficult for small business"

4/5

What do you like best about H&R Block?

I love that it's super easy to do my personal taxes. I can easily look up deductions that I didn't know existed and it's fast -- I don't have to do any of the calculations by myself and all the personal info from last year is retained so I don't have to reenter it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about H&R Block?

I don't like doing business taxes with it. Even with the easy-to-use layout, I find it difficult to figure out business deductions and depreciations, so much so that I just don't use those deductions. Our small business doesn't have a big income or a lot that is depreciating, so I don't feel like it's enough to pay someone to figure them out, but I hate that I don't feel like I can claim those deductions by doing our taxes by myself. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering H&R Block:

It's mostly easy to use, but you may have to do some research to figure out some of the more detailed things. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is H&R Block solving and how is that benefiting you?

I don't have to pay someone to do the taxes. The fee is relatively small and since we have a small business income, it's affordable for the service we receive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about H&R Block?

I liked how easy it was to use because taxes are pretty hard to understand when you don't study that area or comprehend them in the first place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about H&R Block?

I don't have any dislikes to report. It was actually pretty easy to use and I understood what I was doing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering H&R Block:

It's set up in a modern and simple way, definitely easy to use. Way better than going out and having to sit and wait on getting your taxes done. This is done on your time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is H&R Block solving and how is that benefiting you?

I wasn't solving any issues, just doing my taxes for the year. I guess you could say those are issues if that is the case. I've realized that it's rather easy to use and it gives the details in an explanation that I can understand. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"H&R Block makes doing your own taxes easy and painless"

4.5/5

What do you like best about H&R Block?

I have used H&R Block to do my taxes for the past 8 years. The filing form guides you step by step what information to add & where.

Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about H&R Block?

I love H&R Block. I have no complaints and continue to use it every year. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering H&R Block:

Just try it once and you'll use it every year too. I highly recommend H&R Block. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is H&R Block solving and how is that benefiting you?

Using H&R Block saves me over $400. a year paying an accountant to do my taxes online using the exact same forms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Most Simple Option"

4.5/5

What do you like best about H&R Block?

I've compared this to a few other options, even TurboTax, to me this is the best option because it breaks everything part of your taxes down into a simple and understandable question. It also keeps your year over year taxes in the cloud so when you use them the next year it migrates all of last years data for you, it really streamlines the entire process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about H&R Block?

I wish it was cheaper, but it's definitely worth the money. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering H&R Block:

I would definitely recommend this, it's reliable and a huge time saver. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
