## Reviews

### "Terrible option for small service businesses" — 1.0/5

> **David** | *22 March 2025* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I’ve been largely satisfied for the past six years until I ran into a logical flaw in the software‘s 1120 S wizard.  They don’t allow for the common scenario of a corporate IRS filing with a non-corporate state filing.
> 
> **Cons**: Being told I needed to purchase additional unnecessary software to overcome a logical flaw in tax act design was very disappointing.
> 
> Great until this issue.  The “best solution” they could offer was a discount on software I shouldn’t need to purchase in the first place.

### "Easy Way of Doing Our Small Business Taxes on Our Own\!" — 5.0/5

> **Shilleah** | *17 June 2019* | Consumer Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It walked me through all the uploading and importing of our business tax information, and pretty much held my hand the whole way through our business taxes.
> 
> **Cons**: We ended up switching our Payroll to Intuit, so was easier for us to use Turbotax this year instead of TaxAct, since it is directly linked with our payroll
> 
> I loved TaxAct when we did use it\!  It is very affordable for small business owners, and guides you through all the questions in order to autofill our taxes.

### ""Simple Method of Doing Our Independent company Expenses all alone\!"" — 5.0/5

> **Yonatan** | *23 July 2021* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It strolled me through all the transferring and bringing in of our business charge data, and basically held my hand the entire way through our business charges.
> 
> **Cons**: We wound up changing our Finance to Intuit, so was simpler for us to utilize Turbotax this year rather than TaxAct, since it is straightforwardly connected with our finance.
> 
> I cherished TaxAct when we utilized it\! It is entirely reasonable for entrepreneurs, and guides you through every one of the inquiries to autofill our charges.

### "TaxAct Professional" — 4.0/5

> **John** | *29 June 2021* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The only thing that would make this software better is a little more ability to customize reporting.
> 
> **Cons**: Backroom reporting could be a little more flexible.  However, it is a minor issue in the overall performance.
> 
> Absolutely love it.   It actually is more comprehensive than required.

### "What's Your Business without TaxAct Business" — 5.0/5

> **Earlie** | *28 January 2020* | Music | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: This is definitely the tool for your business if you're a sole proprietor.  The navigation of this software is phenomenal resulting in me not missing any of my deductions and expenses that I can write off\!  The customer/technical support is always available to answer any questions.
>
