    EfileMyForms

    Updated: Sep 22 2026
    Summary

    Again, since this process is something I only need to complete once yearly, I need the consistency of not having to 're-learn' usage. Effective and Efficient is what I look for in a product.

    Positive

    Ease of use and consistency of process. I do not have time to constantly 're-learn' how to use a product, especially one so crucial to required business functions. Thank you for keeping this simple!

    Negative

    I have not found any cons to using this product. I need efficiency and effectiveness in the products for my business purposes. I do not use products more than once if they prove to be too complex, hard to administer, difficult to access or apply. Time is of the essence for me as an entrepreneur running my own business as the primary person in charge.
    Time = money and I appreciate products that take this into consideration.

    Many Satisfied Years With eFileMyForms!

    Date: Sep 22 2026
    Summary

    Especially since I've used this app for years, it is SO EASY to use. And very competitively priced to have the app handle the mailing and filing. I have no need or interest to look elsewhere.

    Positive

    eFileMyForms has been my go-to for many years for my 1099 reporting. And I tell everyone about it that needs an easy 1099 processing app. It's more than 1099s but that is my use. It is very affordably priced to have the app handle the mailing and filing. Importing the data and mapping the fields is a breeze. As a freelance accountant I use this app for several entities each year.

    Negative

    Over the years the step-by-step process has become easier, with better explanation on what the app is expecting from the user.

    Good Software for TIN Checks

    Updated: Sep 22 2026
    Summary

    overall, it is a great tool for vendor management verification and it helps with 1099 reporting as the goal is to get as little IRS letters during tax season about not matching EIN records

    Positive

    Does a really good job of verifying EIN and SSN for vendor management. Giving it a 70% threshold helps with spelling and or naming conventions to verify if there is a match with IRS records.

    Negative

    Whenever the IRS portal/verification system is down, you are the mercy of the IRS when this gets fixed. From time to time, the portal will hang as if loading when you hit submit, but it just sits there and it does not load the request. You will need to close and log back in and resubmit the request.

    Summary

    Easy, simple, trustworthy. I don't have to worry about my information after using the product. If there are any mistakes I make they are always on top of things for me.

    Positive

    The Products are simple to us and the instructions are in great layman terms which is good for a small business person and not tech savvy person!

    Negative

    Ha, well for me it is always the cost. I feel it is a bit pricey.

    Easy to Use with Some Bugs

    Date: Sep 15 2026
    Summary

    Overall, this is a decent product for my needs. I’m always on the lookout for new innovations, but I haven’t found another option that suits me better. I understand that no product will ever be perfect.

    Positive

    It is easy to use, intuitive, and streamlined, making it simple for anyone to get started right away. I train new employees, and this product requires very little instruction. I can walk them through it once, and they are able to use it confidently on their own.

    Negative

    I am not satisfied with the updated print format. The print is extremely small and difficult to read. Additionally, the system can be very unreliable and tends to go down during critical times, which creates unnecessary delays and frustration.

    Summary

    Excellent, I recommended it to a Financial Secretary at our church who was struggling getting W-2 out. He really likes it.

    Positive

    The easy of use and efficiency. Reporting and documentation that is provided during and after filing. The ability to verify TINS in advance at a reasonable cost.

    Negative

    There is nothing I do not like about the process.

    Sovos review

    Date: Sep 18 2026
    Summary

    Great product! I will use every year rather than paying a CPA to do the same thing and charge me!!!!

    Positive

    easy to navigate the website. I barely knew what I was doing and it was pretty simple to set up for 1099-ing our contracted employees. Prices were very fair to mail them the documents instead of me!

    A year later i went back to find something and it was easy to find it.

    Negative

    i liked it all. I couldn't find anything negative to say.

    Reliable tax compliance platform with useful automation

    Updated: Sep 22 2026
    Summary

    My overall experience with Sovos has been positive. I have used it weekly for less than six months, so I am still learning some of the more advanced functionality. For the compliance-related tasks I have worked with, it has been reliable and has helped reduce manual effort. The platform has a broad set of capabilities, although usability could be improved in a few areas.

    Positive

    Sovos has been helpful for managing tax and compliance-related processes in a more organized and automated way. I like that the platform brings multiple compliance functions together and reduces some of the manual work involved in tracking requirements. The reporting and automation capabilities are useful, especially when working with recurring compliance tasks.

    Negative

    There is a learning curve when you first start using the platform, and some parts of the interface could be more intuitive. Certain workflows take a little time to understand, especially if you only use the product weekly rather than every day. More straightforward navigation and documentation would improve the experience.

    Fantastic for Enterprise 1099 Compliance

    Updated: Sep 15 2026
    Summary

    great workhorse for enterprise teams. It prioritises security and processing power over a interface, making it a great solution for high-volume compliance

    Positive

    Volume Capacity: Effortlessly imports and processes thousands of records from Excel without lag.
    IRS Accuracy: Features built-in TIN matching and automatic compliance updates that eliminate filing errors.
    Full Service: The print, mail, and e-file service saves our team hundreds of hours during peak season.

    Negative

    Interface: Dates design and sometimes not clear on the interface and its features
    Add-on Costs: Features like SSN verification require extra costs.
    Support: Support teams are unresponsive, so if you need any guidance do not expect much

    Long term TINCheck User

    Updated: Sep 15 2026
    Summary

    Good service that we have been using for 10+ years. It allows us to quickly find accounts with bad TINs so we can correct the numbers before our 1099s go out. Our TIN numbers are accurate and we have never had a fine because of wrong numbers.

    Positive

    You can upload a file to have a large number of TINs checked at one time. We use this feature during 1099 season. We get a detailed report back quickly (usually in a few hours). The report tells us if any TIN has an error and what the error is. It is easy to upload the file. You can also check TINs one at a time, which we use when onboarding.

    Negative

    Nothing I can think of. The product works as expected and is easy to use.

    Filing 1099 Forms Easy

    Date: Sep 23 2026
    Summary

    Absolutely wonderful. Highly recommend using Sovos applications or services for all of your filing needs.

    I file and report 1099s for an Irrevocable Trust and 2 non-profit organizations. So easy to upload data to the IRS and to the states of MN and WI.

    Positive

    The application was intuitive and easy to use. From entering data, saving, editing, printing and the final step reporting to the Regulatory Agencies primary the IRS and to the Revenue Dept for multiple states.

    Negative

    Hmmm, if this survey arrived in March, I may have had some comments, but right now, nothing stands out as being difficult or time consuming to resolve. I had not problems and everything went smoothy and reporting was completed well in advance of the deadlines.
