Great product, easy to use!
Date: Dec 09 2020SummaryOverall, my team and I have had a great experience with SmartVault. It's easy to remove old employees and onboard new employees. Easy to teach clients how to utilize it. And has been GREAT during COVID-19 while we were socially distanced and navigating tax season.
PositiveIt's an easy product to learn. And even easier to walk a client through how to set up their access. All I have to do is send and email, then the client takes a few steps to set up their log in information, and with a few clicks they are ready to send and receive sensitive information through a secure portal!
NegativeNothing that I dislike enough to mention. Sometimes the search bar takes a few seconds to catch up, but that could also be my computer with several other large programs running.

SmartVault helped us reach the clouds
Updated: Nov 17 2020SummaryOverall we are happy with the software as it has helped a small business like ours to begin the transition to the cloud with ease. Aside from the cost, which we don't have much to compare to other than our own budget, the software has been running well and we would not go back to the old ways.
PositiveVery much like the integration with our tax products. We use Intuit products and it has integrated well by have cross program transfer of data and automatic categorization and naming of documents that are placed in the cloud. The ability to make engagements and engagement folders and tie them to all or some of the clients is very efficient. Access to data via cloud is very helpful.
NegativeThe set up can be a bit cumbersome but considering our data load it was expected. Also, generating custom folders and coding that properly was also somewhat difficult, but tech support helped.

Excellent secure data management software
Date: Nov 13 2020SummaryWe are glad we moved from our old document management software to SmartVault, it is secure and saves times. Also sending emails and links to clients to get into the client portals also has been easy. Our clients have told us they love the client portal because it seems so secure and it's easy for them to use.
PositiveThe speed for viewing, editing, sending, and receiving documents through this cloud-based software is more than we expected.
NegativeDo not like the editing document feature at all, in fact we chose to use Acrobat Document Cloud software instead of using the SmartVault editing document. SmartVault's editing feature is clunky - you have to zoom to each page and the notes are not easy to use.

Easy to use!
Date: Nov 13 2020SummaryOverall, its easy to use and navigate through! Again like I mentioned its interface is both easy to use by older and younger staff and we love that we can change the dashboard to a different view!
PositiveSV is super user friendly, we have a lot of diversity at our office from older to younger employees and its interface makes it easier on all of us to be on the same page.
NegativeThe feature that allowed us to see which client had SV access is gone and I couldn't seem to figure out why! now we have no idea which of our current clients have access to their files.
