I have been a Drake user for over 20 years, this was the worst year I've ever had.

Svar fra Drake Software

Thanks for sharing this with us, Daniel. We’re sorry to hear this was your worst experience after more than 20 years with Drake.

We understand how frustrating it is when a product you’ve relied on for so long doesn’t perform the way you expect. That kind of change can make it difficult to feel confident heading into a busy season, especially when you’re comparing other options.

We’d appreciate the chance to talk through what didn’t work well this year and see how we can help. Please reach out to our support team at (828) 524-8020 or email Support@DrakeSoftware.com so we can review your experience and assist further.

Your feedback means a lot, especially given your long history with us.

Tech support is not great

Tech support is not great. Support people are evidently reading the Drake information that I can find online. I need to demand to a more knowlagable support person (next level) I very rarely call as I can do my own research but when I do I need someone who knows taxes and the program.
This season was rough enough without having forms approved IE: 1040ES and others.
I have thought about moving to another program after using Drake since 2014.

Thank you for sharing your experience, Leslie. We’re sorry to hear this season has been so frustrating, especially when you needed more knowledgeable support and didn’t feel you were getting it.

We understand how important it is to reach someone who can go beyond basic guidance, particularly when you’ve already done your own research. Having to push for higher-level support and dealing with delays like form approvals only adds to the challenge during an already demanding season.

We’d appreciate the chance to connect you with the right team and review your concerns in more detail. Please reach out to our support team at (828) 524-8020 or email Support@DrakeSoftware.com so we can escalate this and provide the level of assistance you’re looking for.

Thank you again for your feedback.

Drake provides everything I need without gouging, price-wise. Excellent company.

Drake is an excellent tax software at an accessible price. I really appreciate being able to purchase returns as I need them without having to come up with an outrageous sum of money up front.

I have used Drake for many years…

I have used Drake for many years strictly for tax preparation. The add-on products are a waste of time for me. The program works very well. I rarely have to call tech support. Most input is very intuitive. However, tech support has declined in recent years. I usually end up hanging up and figuring it out myself. Support techs are using some kind of AI search engine, and the responses have been idiotic.

WHAT WENT RIGHT?... NOT MUCH

Wow.. used this package since the 80's.. This was horrible... it ran slow, didn't get business package for state approved until after Feb 15.. Some schedules didn't add correctly, The programming was beyond bad.. oh.. make sure your K1's roll.. they would suddenly act like partners were companies and say not a client... back out of system .. come back in and they would roll.. you can't trust this program.. the people they hired had no creditionals. Some were good... most ere horrible and sometimes would just hang up on you so you couldn't even leave a survey about them. A company in London bought Drake out... scary to think another country is controlling so many returns that are being sent to the IRS

Thanks for taking the time to share this, Ann. We’re really sorry to hear how frustrating this experience was, especially after so many years of relying on the software.

We understand how concerning it is to deal with slow performance, calculation issues, and inconsistent behavior like the K-1 rollovers you described. On top of that, not getting the support experience you expected only adds to that frustration, and that’s not the experience we want anyone to have.

We’d like to take a closer look at what happened and help make this right. Please reach out to our support team at (828) 524-8020 or email Support@DrakeSoftware.com so we can review these issues with you directly and work toward a resolution.

24 Years of Satisfaction

I’ve been a Drake customer since 2012, and it continues to stand out for both its simplicity and capability. Transitioning from my previous software was seamless, and the program has remained easy to use without sacrificing robustness. Whether preparing personal or business returns, Drake handles it all effectively.

Customer service has also been a strong point in my experience. While I’ve seen some comments about changes over the years, I personally haven’t been disappointed. Most of the time, my issues are resolved immediately after I call and share the return. In the rare cases where it takes longer, the wait is brief, and I’ve never had a problem go unresolved.

After comparing other options on the market, I still find Drake to be the most economical choice for small to midsize practices.

It’s also great to know your experiences with support have been consistent and helpful when you’ve needed it. Having issues resolved quickly can make a big difference during the season.

We appreciate you highlighting the value as well. Finding a solution that fits both workflow and cost for a small to midsize practice is important, and it’s good to hear Drake continues to meet those needs.

In all my years using Drake the past 2…

In all my years using Drake the past 2 years have been absolutely the worse. I have called with so many issues and got bad information, silly requests for things I did not ask for, lack of response when I was told issue were being moved up the ladder. My trust in Drake has gone way down and I will be seriously looking for another program to move over to. I also believe the use of Rightworks and Drake have created more issue for me than its worth. I am looking at utilizing another cloud based system if I stay with Drake, HOWEVER, I am almost certain that I will be moving over to a different software system for tax season 2026.

Tax Preparer using Drake for over 20 years

I have been a sole proprietor tax preparer for 50 years. Drake was getting very expensive with the cost per return method. The one user unlimited returns option allows me to service my senior clients and keep my rates withing their budgets. Having used Drake for over 20 years, I am happy with the software. It could be better in certain ways, but overall I am pleased with it..

Software errors.

One tax return, to my knowledge so far, data was changed and returne filed without any action on my part. Filed return was wrong but I don't know what was filed because it wasn't the return that I prepared. Customer service was no help. File sent electronically to support twice. No response or acknowledgement. Client is over the top angry because I can't explain what is happening. Minor software errors on other returns found so far.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention, Pat. We’re very sorry to hear about this experience and understand how serious and stressful this situation is, especially when it impacts a filed return and your client relationship.

We recognize how concerning it is to see data changes you didn’t make, along with not receiving a response after sending files to support. That’s not the level of reliability or follow-through you should expect, and we understand why this has caused frustration and uncertainty.

We want to get this in front of the right team as quickly as possible and work toward answers. Please contact our support team directly at (828) 524-8020 or email Support@DrakeSoftware.com so we can escalate your case, review the submitted files, and help determine what occurred.

Using Drake Tax Online it gets better

Using Drake Tax Online it gets better, but you can tell that they are transitioning. Not sure about how things will pan out for the program users for download. But if this is a tech company now, as opposed to a tax filing platform company time will tell. The online experience is rather straightforward. I switched because I'd rather a company keep data secure and not my server. I just have a small practice and not building an empire.

Drake Software is High Quality Reasonably Priced

I have used other tax softwares, and Drake has been a game-changer. First, it is reasonably priced! Instead of working to pay the software company, the software is priced so it is a tool. Secondly, the tax software accuracy and responsiveness to changes. Updates are seamless and integrated. Lastly, I hear from colleagues about the issues they are having, and I have smooth sailing during our busiest time of year. Customer service is excellent.

Old user, First time administrator

I have used the software for over ten years but then transitioned to my own practice this year. I can’t imagine doing something like this with unfamiliar software. Drakes integrations like portals, pay, and the tax book were extremely helpful and productive. Drake portals is almost like having your very own front office. It keeps communications organized and the ease of importing tax documents can’t be beat.

We have used DrakeSoftware for 16 consecutive years.
data entry, calculate and view mode is a simple process and search function for forms and the F1 key for assistance is highly useful. Printing of returns and checks is also very streamlined.

I would not use any other program besides DRAKE

I would not use any other program. It is well put together. My favorite thing is that, if you make a mistake, the program either corrects it or tell you that you made a mistake and tells you where it is.
My second favorite thing is that Drake has wonderful people answering the phone when you call for help and they ALWAYS know the answers.
