Data acquisition is from the previous year's program, but also from other sources (QIF format, CSV) possible. The program is especially suitable for beginners and simple tax cases - for my purposes it was in any case always sufficient. The "Red Thread" guides the user through the control case. A tax auditor checks all data for plausibility. The completed tax return can be printed on the official forms or on plain paper, as well as sent by Elster. The tax assessment of the tax office checks the communication tester, for oppositions there are matching sample letter. A printed manual control is not present, only a Quick Start Guide.
Conclusion: Easy Control 2015 offers a solid price-performance ratio, for easy control cases this program is highly recommended.
