Excellent product for smaller firms
Drake Tax is an excellent product for a small firm, just getting started. It is inexpensive and the cost is predictable, so it won't fluctuate as I grow. It is very easy to use, and client support is really good. They continue to add surround solutions to assist with more practice management needs. Absolutely a great product to use.

We appreciate your review, Todd. Predictable costs and room to grow are exactly what a firm just getting started needs, and we're glad that's been your experience. We'll keep building out those practice management tools to support you as things scale up.
Drake Tax is top notch. Drake accounting is not.
Drake tax is in the optimal quadrant based on price/quality in my opinion. Sure there are better tax products out there but their price makes them less attractive especially to a smaller office like mine.
My 5 star review is for the tax program.
Drake accounting on the other hand is worse than quickbooks online if that is even possible. Drake has the potential to take a ton of market share away from Qbooks. However, they are throwing away whatever money/resources they are spending. They would be much better off not having it at all since no one wants to use it. They are striking out on a golden opportunity to be a much needed alternative to quickbooks.
So hard to believe another accounting program out there hasn't made inroads on quickbooks because of how bad/hated they are. I can't really think of another business opportunity out there that has as much potential to replace a market leader.

DRAKE is NOT the quality product it used to be
DRAKE has been a wonderful tax product over the last 20 years. That all changed for 2026. The support was almost non-existent. All were were told was to go find the answer to our issue on the "Knowledge base" If I wanted to go hunt for the answer, I wouldn't need support. Also, the biggest disappointment is that DRAKE removed some calculations that have worked seamlessly for 20 years and now they made them a manual calculation. This is completely unacceptable. Most likely, we will be moving to a new tax software. DRAKE was an awesome product when they were family owned, but everything has slid downhill the last 2 years. It is NOT a product I would recommend to a friend or even a competitor

Thanks for taking the time to share this, Ashley. We truly appreciate the many years you’ve been with us since 1988, and it’s concerning to hear that both pricing and customer service have fallen short of your expectations.

This was once a GREAT tax software company to work with but now that trust/love is gone
The customer service has fallen off a cliff since the sale a couple years ago. It went from a LIVE PERSON answering the phone call (before the 3rd ring usually) to the standard automated phone tree that drives everyone batty. I have asked for help for several years now with the auto backup of my files and nobody has replied or helped. For what I pay for this product the customer service is not up to par.

Thanks for sharing your experience with us, Matt.
I’m sorry to hear how much the shift in support and responsiveness has impacted you, especially after relying on us for so long. Going from quick, direct help to a more frustrating experience, and not getting assistance with something like your auto backup over multiple years, is not what you should expect.
We’d like to help get this addressed for you. Please reach out to our support team at (828) 524-8020 or email Support@DrakeSoftware.com so we can take a closer look at the backup issue and your support experience.
Your feedback matters, and we take concerns like this seriously as we work to improve both our product and support.
There were too many bugs this year
There were too many bugs this year. Forms with wrong calculations that were not fixed, workarounds that were not labelled correctly, crashes, and support that, while polite, were frequently unable to even understand the problem I was having.
I've used Drake for over 20 years; the quality of the program and support have gone down since the VC company purchased it.
I noticed Drake's response. I did report ALL of my issues to support. One of them back in January. As of 5/12, none of them were fixed.

Thanks for taking the time to share this, David.
I’m really sorry to hear about the issues you ran into this year, especially the calculation errors, unclear workarounds, and crashes. After more than 20 years with Drake, you’ve set a clear expectation for both reliability and support, and it’s frustrating when that experience doesn’t match what you’ve come to depend on. I also understand how concerning it is when support interactions don’t fully resolve or even identify the problem.
We’d like the opportunity to look into this more closely and help make things right. Please reach out to our support team at (828) 524-8020 or email Support@DrakeSoftware.com so we can review the specific issues you encountered and work toward a resolution with you.

Drake is Great!!
I've been using Lacerte and Ultra Tax in all my CPA career as a partner of a local firm. It is not until I left the firm and on my own and downsized my clientele I was recommended from some peers with Drake. I love it, not only because it is user friendly but it is in compliance more with the details of the questionnaires and descriptions. My peers and I talked, we actually were falling the default trap using the large companies' tax software and not paying attention to some important stuff as a tax preprayer. We appreciate Drake's tax program with detailed frameworks with explanation and researches so we can do our job better. And the learning curve is low for people changed from the major tax software companies. It was a great first year experience. Thanks, Drake Tax. And the Drake portal is great as well. All my clients had good feedback; it is so easy to use compare with others.

The new owners are greedy and put out an inferior product. It's not what it use to be. The keep adding options to make more money but the program had so many errors you had to spend more time making sure everything was done right. They couldn't even do a 2210 right.
