Pros

“There is no relationship manager, if you have an issue you have to call, give the info again, wait for a call back etc. While Drake works well generally, I suggest ensuring you ask a lot of questions before listening to sales to proceed. ”

Marie P.

Tax Preparer

“The ability for the software to update clients from prior years is a particularly useful feature and saves us a lot of time.”

Bernie C.

CEO

“Over the years Drake has been a great company until 2025, when they were purchased by another company.”

Paul M.

President

Pros

“She just transferred the number from her total on one piece of paper and write it on the tax form and one line – I was charged an extra $160 for that.”

Danielle B.

Owner operator

“What i like about H&R Block is its is easy to do tax returns an they will give you a advance on your taxes”

Megan M.

Owner

“I filed my taxes for 5 years now with them in a row.”

Alexis S.

Owner

Cons

“I did not renew my portal when I renewed my tax software, but they charged me anyway.”

Paul M.

President

“Year‑over‑year hikes of this size don’t reflect the value delivered, especially when many features remain unchanged.”

Ion T.

CEO

“I am OK to deal with occasional (but painful) software hang-ups, but I hope they rethink this approach, because it’s pushing long‑time users away.”

Ion T.

CEO

Cons

“My experience has been that they know very little about the desktop version of the Premium & Business and have not been much help with software issues and bugs.”

Dena S.

Vice President

“The desktop version doesn't seem to get much attention, I suspect they are phasing it out.”

Dena S.

Vice President

“this was not an taxes issue, it was an error of the application but the agent wouldn't understand.”
