A major value of ItsDeductible is the ability to seamlessly import all contributions into TurboTax. Keeping track of donations could be done with a spreadsheet and valuations could be obtained elsewhere (e.g., Goodwill, Salvation Army, etc.). Entry into TurboTax would be painfully manual without ItsDeductible and no other third-party donation tracking tool would likely be supported for import by TurboTax.
I'd be interested if there is any documented import capability in TurboTax that could be used if donations were properly formatted without using ItsDeductible.
ItsDeductible is not exactly "free", since you need to upgrade to the more expensive TurboTax Deluxe or Premier to get the import capability. Discontinuing ItsDeductible removes one reason for those upgrades.
