Also Prosystem diagnostics are way better. In GoSystem you need an IT degree to figure out half the diagnostics

As a user of both onesource and corptax from a tax technology group.. corptax is better overall but it's built for larger clients. The learning curve is very steep.. onesource is better for smaller clients .. learning curve is fairly elementary. in my opinion comparatively onesource is a typewriter and corptax is a database

ProSystems can be ok but it seems like flow-throughs are an afterthought. For example a lot of the inputs on S Corp returns can’t be cross referenced so you can’t figure out where to put the numbers and it’s not the same as p-ships/C corps. And the states can be awful too

OneSource income tax being the industry version of GoSystems?

Yes

I’ve found the GoSystems a close 2nd due to flexibility. Pro systems has some good points, but is a little less flexible. Most other ones...not really robust or flexible.

What really? I have the opposite opinion I think corptax is much more intuitive

OP are you asking about Income Tax Provision or Income Tax Compliance? I don't have compliance experience with these tools but from an income tax provision perspective it took CorpTax Tax Provision 30 minutes to recalculate the tax provision each time my client needed to make even the most minor adjustments to the State tax provision. OneSource Income Tax Provision hands down winner.

It’s hard to trust the partners/leadership when they want us to return to office as being better when we increase offshoring? Also, the pressure on billable hours when all that really matters is how much our fixed labor costs vs. how much we can bill (which is usually fixed fee or at least a range) and the fixed labor costs of offshoring is significantly cheaper so the hours don’t matter. Am I mistaken by this viewpoint?
