After I had the opportunity to test the PC version of this program and was able to create a more complex tax return in less than two hours, I discovered the Mac version of the tax-saving explanation: ie buy and my data is imported, that went smoothly ,
Motivational looks especially that you see at all times which refunds / additional payment is due to the current entries and whether or where it is still worthwhile to invest extra work in the tax return. In case of doubt, the program asks for granted and gives helpful tips on what you should not think. Of course you have to think ahead a bit and even in really complicated cases you need then probably an accountant. But compared with Elster, which is reminiscent of a manual translated into German from China, the program is a multiple quantum leap.
The only alternative was discovered by me is the WISO tax: Mac 2014 (for tax year 2013) [Download], the well seems to be comparable to good content, but could me personally with a somewhat confusing product and pricing policy unconvincing / retune.
Conclusion:
With the tax-saving explanation the tax return is much faster, more intuitive and more comfortable than with Elster. To claim that the tax return so fun, would now also a bit exaggerated. But it loses much of its horror. Next year I will definitely buy the app again, the money is very well spent.
