No email communication I've been using Drake Tax and Drake Payroll for a while now. The Software itself isn't bad but my issue is with IRS rejected filings. Drake wouldn't notify the tax preparer that a return has been rejected. Drake does receive the status update from the IRS but it won't send an email to the tax preparer to notify them as such. This software isn't cheap but it's basically useless in these type of situations. This causes so much grief to resolve the issues once discovered.

Your programmers need to stop trying to… Your programmers need to stop trying to 2nd guess taxpreparers. The program should not generate amounts such as on State returns : Ohio STX2 estimated tax that adds to the amount on the Ohio return. If questionbs, call me: Terry Glovinsky 419-7834-7004 341819 Your generic city return SUCKs!!!!

DO NOT DOWNLOAD their demo DO NOT DOWNLOAD their demo. They "do not have an uninstaller" and simply deleting the files in File Explorer will leave residuals all over your hard drive. Once they know you are not purchasing their software, they come completely unhelpful.

Have been with Drake Software since 1985 Have been with Drake Software since 1985. Through the years, they have continually improved and kept up with the changing tax laws and technology improvements. The tax software integrates with their Drake Portals for easy upload and download of documents to and from clients. Also, Drake Document Manager integrates seamlessly as well. Clients can sign tax returns digitally through the Portals as well for a paperless experience. I also use Drake Accounting for my write up and payroll clients. I can't see that I would change software, as their support has always gone above and beyond to solve any challenges I may encounter in the preparation of returns. I highly recommend anyone looking to give them a try.

Awful Company and terrible software Awful Company and terrible software. Don't you dare make a mistake on pay-per-return or they will refuse to give money back even if they didn't provide the service. Very dishonest, unethical people. They software itself is pretty bad. It would take less time to prepare simple returns on paper because of all their little nuances scattered in all nooks and crannies throughout the software. Their lower prices reflect their quality. Best to stay away and find a tax preparation software that will actually work for you.
