As a relatively new business owner, I have to say that Intuit has been so disappointing. I started as a sole proprietor using Quickbooks Self-Employed Online on Mac OS, bought the TurboTax package which seamlessly integrated with Self-Employed and filed my taxes no problem.
At the beginning of this year, I upgrade to Quickbooks Online Simple Start where I discovered that Intuit does not offer any seamless integrated way to transfer data between it's own Quickbook application versions...so I had to manually download and import transactions, mileage etc... into Quickbooks Online. Very nice.
My wife and I got married this year and formed an LLC that we both operate as a partnership.
Now tax-time arrives and I'm discovering a few other highly frustrating things about Inuit's products. First, there is NO INTEGRATION between it's more expensive, advanced Quickbooks Online products and TurboTax (which Intuit also owns). What I'm being told is that you can PURCHASE Quickbooks Desktop version, import your data from Quickbooks Online and then buy a TurboTax for Business version of software to file your taxes......BUT......there is no Turbotax for Business version that runs on a MAC.
What the hell. So my only chose is to buy a Windows OS license, borrow or buy a PC or have another tax professional file my taxes. This really sucks, Intuit.
