Has anyone tried Avalara? It's a tax-automation site/service.

I am set up as a S corp, virtually no inventory/invoicing/etc. issues. I am looking for some software i.e. intuit that would make it easier to file annual tax returns, anybody got any ideas? Thnx in advance.
The State of TEXAS is telling my husband and I we owe them over a $1,000 for attending a $0 sales event in San Antonio. Have any of you ever been required to file a "FRANCHISE entity tax form?
We did a show in San Antonio a couple of years ago and I applied for what I thought was a one-time sales and tax permit. They said they determined we needed a "franchise." I couldn't see why, but they said we could get a $500 a day penalty if we sold in the state. So I filled in the form and sent it in. We did the show, $0 sales -- which I reported. Then I kept getting calls about not filing out the quarterly franchise forms. I FINALLY got to talk to someone who said he closed out the franchise. Yesterday my husband got a phone call saying we owed the state something over $1,000. (He freaked and didn't get the exact amount)
Anyone else have any experiences like this? We spent money in Texas, didn't sell anything and they want this kind of cash? Its a holdup! We need help!
