BoomTax review
A connected 1099 filing workflow with broad imports, delivery options and a free plan.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
BoomTax is web-based tax information reporting software for businesses, payroll providers, accounting firms and enterprise teams. Its core workflow covers 1099 filing with IRS transmission and status tracking, state reporting for participating states, recipient-copy delivery, bulk imports, IRS-rule validation and unlimited corrections. It also supports ACA and W-2 reporting, with web and API access for teams that need connected filing workflows.
The published plans show a freemium model. The free plan provides access to federal and state filing, IRS validation, corrections, multiple import formats, both recipient-delivery methods, API capabilities and payroll and accounting integrations. Integrations include QuickBooks Online, Xero, ADP, Insperity, Workday, UKG, Sage Intacct, FreshBooks, Zoho Books and Blue Cross Blue Shield. Premium (ACA) costs $349 USD per tax year and includes unlimited companies, up to 145 employees, IRS e-filing, unlimited corrections and state reporting for NJ, DC, RI and CA. Premium (1099) adds unlimited issuers, unlimited recipients, IRS/SSA e-filing, Combined Federal/State Filing support and unlimited corrections. Enterprise adds unlimited employees, Web API access, white-label support and priority support.
Its strongest fit is for organizations consolidating tax data from payroll or accounting systems. Bulk imports, TIN and filing EIN validation, FIRE-format file conversion to IRIS XML, REST API support and filing-status tracking give the product a broad workflow rather than a single-form submission tool. Recipient delivery can be handled by print and mail, electronic delivery or PDF download. Teams with straightforward 1099 needs can start with the free plan, while larger or more connected operations may prefer Enterprise. Organizations focused specifically on ACA reporting should evaluate the Premium (ACA) limits and state coverage; organizations needing broad state coverage should check whether their states participate in the combined filing program.
