Is TaxCut or TurboTax the Better Buy?

From , former About.com Guide

Compare TurboTax and TaxCut versions and prices for those who need tax software that covers all personal income tax preparation requirements.
You need "The Works" in your tax software if, at a minimum, you want to prepare both federal and state and e-file both of those returns.

"The Works" includes features to cover any personal income tax scenario and must include all features for maximizing tax deductions, handling investments and capital gains taxes and Schedule C for the self-employed.

You can see the dramatic difference in pricing between TurboTax Home and Business and TaxCut Federal + State + E-File when it comes to "The Works". TaxCut is by far the better value at half the cost for the same features in TurboTax Home and Business.

As mentioned in TaxCut and TurboTax for Investments, Capital Gains and Rental Property, rental property owners or active stock traders having large amounts of data to enter from forms 1099 or 1098 would find TurboTax features worth paying for to handle these tax concerns. These individuals need to weigh the additional cost for these TurboTax Home and Business features against the savings in TaxCut Federal + State + E-File, which includes one free tax question to Ask an Advisor.
