if you really want to know why look at Intuit stock price in the last 5 years.

Payroll software price increased 600% .from. $500 to $3000 in five years

Someone else posted about a similar increase but when the dust all settled it sounded like he got in on a sweetheart deal that should have ended earlier but Intuit finally caught up with him for the new year.

what package did you purchase and how much did they charge you?

I did not receive such a deal and I accept a modest increase each year.  A 40% increase is not justified in my opinion.

I checked mine and it went up around 17% so I have no idea why yours is 40%. Are they trying to sell you add-ons? or additional products that they think you might want - like cloud hosting? that is some large amount per month based on users. It is for exactly the same items?

not happy with any increase but I have no desire to research, learn and convert to another software. For me proseries does what I need and for the 1 or 2 times I need a work around it wouldn't justify a higher fee from another company.

Again, what package and how much?  You may have a screaming deal already, even with the 40% increase.  Someone else said they have Professional 1040 Complete and pays less than $1500 WITH the increase, but thats half of what I pay for the same package.

I think I'm in the 17% category.... but, in the same quote/proposal was a 'recommended option' to change to 'hosted'....  which would have increased my pricing about 300%...   

Did you look at the early renewal discount?

I'm having the same issue as well. A huge price increase of 59.3% from 2024 vs tax year 2025 Intuit ProSeries. I just called customer support, and they don't have any answers. Product didn't change, and it's a whopping 60% increase. This is unacceptable.

I'm going to call sales and see if they can get me a better deal.

They don't value repeat customers who have been with them for a decade or longer.  

what was the result when you called Sales?  

Dear ProSeries Customer Support Team,

I am writing regarding my 2025 ProSeriesSubject

renewal invoice, which reflects an approximate 40% increase from my prior renewal. I was surprised by this substantial increase, as my usage and business needs have remained consistent.

As a long-time ProSeries customer, this level of increase creates a financial hardship and is not sustainable for my practice. I value the ProSeries product and would like to continue using it; however, I am requesting a review of my account to determine whether a loyalty discount, promotional rate, or price adjustment can be applied to bring the renewal cost more in line with prior years.

I would appreciate written clarification on the reason for the increase and confirmation of any available options to reduce the renewal amount. I am hopeful we can resolve this promptly so I may complete my renewal without interruption.

Thank you for your time and assistance. I look forward to your response.

Sincerely,
Patricia Craig-Hood
