Cons

Competitor Cons of TaxSlayer Pro
Intuit ProConnect Tax / Lacerte / ProSeries TaxSlayer Pro may lack the breadth of diagnostic tools, deep form libraries, and integrations those Intuit products offer. Firms with complex filings might find those features valuable.
CCH ProSystem fx TaxSlayer Pro does not deliver the advanced practice management features, audit support, or billing integrations that CCH ProSystem fx brings. Larger firms might miss those higher‑level capabilities.
Drake Tax Some users find Drake Tax more affordable for low‑return volume and easier to transition to. Drake also earns higher marks in recent user surveys for ease of use, updates, and overall satisfaction. TaxSlayer Pro might not match that user‑rated usability.
