Tax Act Worth the $

Short learning curve if you have new preparers. Well priced. I have been using them for a long time and they now have all the entity forms and states I need. Support varies (time wise) but they are good at resolving issues once you get to the right person. They fixed the note section too and that was great move! I love the carry over of details from the return, helps get us up and running ASAP. Also like you can save back up files to your own server if you want vs having to save it to their cloud.
