Have used H & R Premium and Business for 4 years now. Cheaper than TurboTax. Premium and Business comes with 2 separate installs and ICONS. One for 1120 business and one for personal 1040 returns. It has its idiosyncrasies but I'm so used to it by now its a breeze. First time users will find it a bit confusing but worth the effort.

I have used H & R Block software since the 1990s. Up until last year everything was fine and I recommended their software to others regularly. For the 2014 filing season we had some major software technical issues arise with self employment income, health insurance exchange premium payments, and premium subsidy reconciliation. Total debacle. When I went to install the 2015 software the business program would hang in the installer. A quick check of online forums showed that it is necessary to restart the PC in safe mode to install the business program in compatibility mode. Huh? I haven't had to install a program under safe mode since Windoze 95! What's with that? I hope this isn't a harbinger of future attractions!

I purchased mostly because of the business part of it. As it turned out I did the LLC return myself and what I was looking for guidance for was not contained in the cd. I also used the normal part of the cd. Value wise, if it worked properly it would have been an economical choice. However, this item did not load properly, the things I needed to X did not line up properly. But I found a way around it. When using the non-business section, when I saw a mistake and corrected it, although it showed it on the paper correctly, it never followed through with changing the other items and totals that would need to be changed. I started from scratch several times to get it right. The questionnaire did not always have the right thing to check. For instance my questionnaire had depletion expense but no question on depreciation. I need to purchase another state to complete my tax returns but I am almost afraid to spend the additional money. The purpose of buying the cd was that I could enter the data and relax - but this I could not do since I had to check every calculation. Also, much of what I did I could not file because it was not updated even though I updated on line. I had to get the form from IRS and then refill it to file. My first time using H & R Block but I think you have to iron out the kinks.Read full review

If you have a complex return it's a waste of money. It asks questions, I would be able to fill out the forms by following previous years, but there are NO forms to fill in, only questions to answer. My income includes long and short term capital gains, depreciation and owner-carry on Properties, and rentals. I could print out the forms and hand print in all of the information, but then there was no point to buy the program.
