Unlike Turbo Tax and H&R Block, it can’t import W-2 automatically due to which it takes time to file the return. Tax Act is relatively less expensive. The interface is simple and navigation is relatively easy. Tax Act allows you to import a previous year’s return, which saves some time as individual do not have to enter all your personal information. It also allows you to pay your filing fee with your refund. Review and alerts are also available in this software before finalizing of returns. #### Cons The lack of a W-2 import is disappointing. Being able to upload your income information saves time and prevents errors from manual entry. It also lacks good customer support. --- ### Tax Act Review 2020 - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Verified Reviewer - Industry: Financial Services - Company size: 1001-5000 employees - Product usage: 3-5 years · a few times a year - Reviewed: April 2021 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

The software have several quality control reviews for federal and state taxes. You can efile your returns or print and mail your returns. You can also save your returns and a backup copy of your return on your computer #### Cons There are different tax software packages depending on how complicated your taxes are, so you need to make sure you pick the correct software by Tax Act.

I guess that's with most tax software. --- Showing 1 - 10 of 42 Reviews [See All Reviews](https://www.softwareadvice.com/tax-preparation/taxact-business-profile/reviews/) ## TaxAct Business Popular Comparisons [TaxDome vs TaxAct Business](https://www.softwareadvice.com/tax-preparation/taxact-business-profile/vs/taxdome/)[MyTAXPrepOffice vs TaxAct Business](https://www.softwareadvice.com/tax-practice-management/mytaxprepoffice-profile/vs/taxact-business/)[TurboTax Business vs TaxAct Business](https://www.softwareadvice.com/tax-preparation/taxact-business-profile/vs/turbotax-business/)[Drake Tax vs TaxAct Business](https://www.softwareadvice.com/tax-practice-management/drake-tax-profile/vs/taxact-business/)[ProSeries Tax vs TaxAct Business](https://www.softwareadvice.com/accounting/intuit-profile/vs/taxact-business/) [Compare All Alternatives](https://www.softwareadvice.com/tax-preparation/taxact-business-profile/alternatives/) ## See what companies are saying about Software Advice
