This was my first time using the software and I really like it! I had already prepared the Form 990, but needed a platform to file it electronically. You made it easy to replicate the return with its new features.

This is the second year I have used the software and it was easier to use than last year. Also the use of indicators where it was necessary to use schedules was helpful. The third year will probably be easier.
