Pros

“The above is for an investment pool for my elderly parents structured as a Partnership, so it will be able to receive a stepup basis when they pass away so that they can seamlessly transfer assets to their grandchildren.”

“The fact that it's needed at all instead of our taxes being automatically calculated and filed, at least as far as basic returns are considered.”

PRESIDENT

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. ”

“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

“Drake helps us optimize the time spent on each return because the built in compliance features and warnings gives us confidence that we are thorough with each return. ”

Cons

“There is no ability to enter a 1099 (a 1099 has simple numbered boxes, but TurboTax business does not, nor do they use the same or even similar terms and as I found out after a 2 hour call there simply is no way to enter foreign tax expenses into TurboTax business for a partnership).”

“It has some glitches from time to time, refusing to update certain info. ”

“The main downsides are that it only works on Windows computers, and it can be a bit expensive.”

Owner

Cons

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

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.”

CEO

“New forms and tax law changes are shoe-horned in on screens like pimples on a face.”
