"One of the best softwares for tax compliance"
4/5
What do you like best about ProSystem fx Suite?

It is easy to use and navigate the software. The state information flows directly from federal. All the mailing information can be printed along with the return. There are instructions on what is required at each form and where to input the information is easily available. The penalties and interest is calculated automatically. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ProSystem fx Suite?

Not able to import excel sheets for depreciation and 5471's. Sometimes it is difficult to understand where you need to input the values. The help icon sometimes doesn't assists you in determining where you need to input information. In these situations sometimes you need to override the system and input the data directly on the form. Sometimes the software will not open and you need to restart the computer to start the software. You are not able to e-file the returns. There should be e-payment option and can directly take you on the e-payment platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"alright, could be more streamlined"
4/5
What do you like best about ProSystem fx Suite?

ability to organize binders and create subsections, ability to sign off on work and create notes is useful Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ProSystem fx Suite?

hate that you must sync binder continuously to ensure you don't lose work, should have auto-syncs or recover work if there is a crash at least. Also aesthetic looks pretty dated, could be refreshed. Wish there was a Ctrl+F function. All of the options/buttons are symbols which makes it pretty difficult to understand what all of them are Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Difficult for what we try to use it for"
3.5/5
What do you like best about ProSystem fx Suite?

What I like best about ProSystem fx Suite is the organization level. Everything is relatively easy to find and some of the details are easy to work with. Some of the reports are really easy to use and run and others can be difficult. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ProSystem fx Suite?

What I dislike about ProSystem fx Suite is the fact that it is difficult to use for taxed items and merchandise that we sell to our clients. I do realize that its not necessarily intended to be used that way but for us, we do as well as time entries. There needs to be a few extra features for customization of reports to be run. We need invoice reference information to be tied back to the original order and there are very few ways to actually access that information, much less run reports about it.

"ProSystem fx Engagement - By far one of the best audit documentation software"
4.5/5
What do you like best about ProSystem fx Suite?

Very smooth, check in - check out features are great. Trial balance functionality is very good. Audit trail functionality is good too. Auto sync on exit is a good feature that force it to sync each time binder is closed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ProSystem fx Suite?

While working remotely, syncing speeds are bit lower. It is also not cloud based yet and it's recommended that they consider moving this to could without losing any current functionality. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
