Software Reviews of TurboTax Business 2006 Corporations and Partnerships [OLDER VERSION]
Customer Review: Turbo Tax Business 2006 Corporation and Partnerships
Summary: 3 Stars
I purchased this product to complete the company tax returns in 2007 for 2006. The product was very easy to use and allowed me to file me taxes on time without the headache. However, you have to repurchase the product each year; there are not upgrades.Customer Review: Sorry I Purchased This
Summary: 3 Stars
This program worked pretty well, but I am sorry I purchased it. I'm a senior citizen in Medford, Oregon and could have had my tax done for free. I didn't save any money by using this program. I just wasted money by buying it.
.
Also, I had to waste a lot of time downloading updates. And there was a problem with the fact that I sold my old car and purchased another car for a higher price. Was I supposed to get a deduction for that? I'm old. I wished for a human being.

WHEN WE CALLED TO FIND OUT WHY, THEY SAID IT WAS A PROCESSING ERROR AND WE NEVER RECEIVED CREDIT!!! AMAZON DIDN'T STAND BEHIND THEIR WORD. FRUSTRATED.....AND TIME WASTED!!! BUY IT AT WALMART LIKE I WILL FROM NOW ON!Customer Review: not as easy as expected for a first time user
Summary: 4 Stars
I previsouly used an accountant for my S-corp (federal, state and NYC) returns as well as (federal and state) personal returns. That can easily come to $1000. With turbotax you save a bunch around $750. The business product DOES NOT INCLUDE STATE RETURN which is another $50, and the NYC return is an additional $50 (available from inside the program).
I used it the first time this year, I am pretty good with numbers, accounting and excel. It tool me well over 10 hours to enter the business returns after having all my numbers estimated in excel.
The customer support by email was helpful as was the community forum, but responses are not always quick. and it is a time consuming process to research questions. The is VERY LITTLE GUIDANCE in filling out the state and NYC return. TT basically gives you the form and let you fill in the areas not generated by numbers on the federal return. TT reviews those returns for errors which certainly adds some value (relative to pencil and paper). It was too difficult for me to fill in state and NYC myself off the fed business return without any software, so I don't see that as an option (to save $100) despite the limited additional information needed.
BOTTOM LINE - The first year using it will probably cause some of your hair to turn grey, subsequent years should be much easier. The navigation and interface is not intuitive enough for to make the first year smoot but over the years you can save a substancially in preparing you own taxes.
One strategy might be to try it one year and run it by a tax accountant (as training wheels) and then in subsequent years do it on your own. (of course year one would be time consuming and expensive but that probably makes sense in the long run.)
Customer Review: Much Improved
Summary: 5 Stars
The 2006 version is much improved over earlier versions. It took me only an average of 2 hours each to do two trust returns.
