The error rate was too high to effectively run my business and keep the software. I had to go to another company. Support got worse and worse each year. When I got a new server in 2019, I realized just how much of an issue installing old version on a new computer was given how they redid the program in 2014. It took almost a month for me to get the software going in 2019. I work many hours on it and got such a sour taste in my mouth as a result I started looking at other software. I did finally leave and this year when I got a new server and tried installing I had even more problems than before and I only installed from 2016 forward. Taxslayer refused to help me on those years I paid for since I am not a current user for 2023. I told them I paid over a $1,000 for this software each of those years and they said they would not help me at all.
Pros
I like the e-file feature and the fact I knew the program as well as I did.
Cons
They only support 3 years of software and if your computer dies trying to install old software on a new computer is very difficult and you get no help from TaxSlayer. Once you leave no help on older years that you paid for. There are codes you need and if you do not get them in the year of purchase, you cannot get them after 3 years so those returns cannot be installed without them. They have to be gotten from support. The error rate is extremely high in the software and they are slow to fix errors and do not fix many of them.

Pros
I love everything about Tax Slayer Pro! The best thing is how quickly you can prepare the return as well as accurately. No extra boxes or scripts to read. Just taxes!
My company has been using this software for over 4 years, and I don't see a change in the foreseeable future.
Cons
I can honestly say there isn't anything that I find to be a con with them.

Terrible! The program did not work. it did not include my adjustments to income even though I entered them. It cost $109.59 rather than the amount they advertised. It cost me thousands of dollars! It would not print my return. The bottom line is, AVOID THIS PROGRAM LIKE THE PLAGUE.
Pros
The blanks were fairly easy to enter, although parts of the forms were unnecessarily complicated.
Cons
It screws up the results! After entering all of the deductions, it indicated that the adjusted gross was the same as the gross costing me thousands. They will not return my money, even though the program failed

Pros
Taxslayer Pro is affordable for me as a solo practioner. Customer Service is very reliable and professional.
Cons
While you can view forms prior to printing the return, it would be nice to toggle between the form view and the data entry fields.
