Just a horrendous piece of software
I used the TaxCut software to prepare my personal tax return the past two years and was very happy with it. The software was easy to use, it led you through a serious of interview questions and made suggestions along the way. I recently started an S Corp. and thought I would use TaxCut Business to handle the taxes for the corporation. I have no employees besides myself, no product or inventory, and no source of income other than consulting fees. Should be easy right? I couldn't have been more wrong. After about 4 hours of struggling with this software I was no farther along than when I started. It provided little guidance as to how I should be filling out the forms. The personal edition will ask you a series of questions to guide you through the process, no so in the Business edition.
This software is a blight on the TaxCut name and it is a real shame that they distribute this product. As much as I liked the personal edition I may not go back to using it after this debacle. Maybe I'll give TurboTax a try.

BAD, BAD PROGRAM!
This SUCKS. I've fought with this program--it keeps saying my taxes are pending, but won't print them out, and I can't figure out how to get them "approved". Now, the stupid program will not even open, so I not only have to fill out the forms BY HAND, but I've got to start from scratch too, because I can't even open up the program to get the data I've already entered. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THIS OR FUTURE EDITIONS. IT IS ****NOT**** WORTH IT

Not very friendly
Not very friendly as the TaxCut deluxe. H&R need to work abit harder on this program. if you do not know your way doing your corporate return, don't try it just pay for a pro and finish with it.

Zero stars, worst product I have seen in 15 years
The original DOS version of TurboTax beat this bloody. I can't believe H&R Block put their name on this product. It is an embarrassment to a shocking degree.

Stunningly Bad
I moved from TurboTax to TaxCut a few years due to Inuit's C-Dilla fiasco, vowing never to return... Having used this year's TaxCut for Business & Business State, I'm soon to be (again) a loyal TT user.

I installed the Federal program and, when directed, also installed the State program. The first piece of bad news was that I couldn't import last year's return (also prepared using TaxCut). The comments in other posts about slow, useless technical support are confirmed; 30 minutes of online chat during which I was asked exactly one pertinent question from a person who obviously knew less about the product and its features than I did. In the end, I was told that it might maybe kind-of possibly be a good guess that some form or other wasn't approved yet and, so, I should wait until mid-March to see if I still had the problem then. This was on March 11th and - as we know - corporate taxes are due on March 15th. I abandoned the attempt at further technical help and just re-entered the information.

The interview does, indeed, not keep track of it's location; very frustrating. Also, there are indeed many places (MANY places) where the TaxCut interview process is as follows: "Here's a form. Fill it out. Don't forget the important stuff."

When I finished the Federal return (expecting to navigate into the State interview), TaxCut was unaware that just hours earlier it had installed the State program. I had to re-download the State from their web site and after being told that I had successfully installed the State, it still wasn't available. I had to close and re-open the program to move from Federal to State. And, OBTW, re-enter a bunch of stuff that shoud have been transferred from the Federal return.

This is definitely the worst tax preparation software (and, quite possibly, the worst commercial software of any sort) I've seen. It's atrocious. I'm embarrased to have bought it and I really wish I'd have read these other reviews before having done so.
