Too many issues. I cant import data by uploading W2 or 1099 forms. Had an issue with Drake not allowing me to efile return I had already paid for, now that is fixed but I can no longer print anything. Drake acts like it is going thru the process of creating a pdf but nothing ever shows up. We think we will be using other software for TY2023

Dan at Drake top of the line in the… Dan at Drake top of the line in the rude category. Had Drake software for 35 years and Dan has guaranteed I will find a new software company. They were the best for 30 years. The last few years they have been declining and Dan has now moved Drake to the rude category in service. A footnote Rude Dan a supervisor in the customer service area told me NOT to contact them as they would solve the software problem that was causing me 2X the work when they got around to it and I was unreasonable to believe that my desire for some kind of time frame as to when my extra work load might end wasn't anything he cared about. I also take from that, that Drake doesn't care much either.

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.

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.

Drake user for 25+ years. As a Drake user for 25+ years I would never think of changing software. One of Drake's main features is their support. Usually someone answers on the second ring and you are talking to a live person who speaks english. If the person who answers can't help they immediately transfer you to someone else who can. The other good thing about Drake is they are family owned and they take suggestions from tax practioners about improving the software seriously. Software is reasonably priced and handles all type return.
