Secure and Reliable platform, has room for continued improvement I've used SmartVault for about 8 years now. I rely on it's security and simplicity for clients to upload sensitive information, and as a long term storage facility for all of my tax and financial planning work. As a result, I have a mobile office setup with no filing cabinets of client documents. SV has made many upgrades to their interface and functionality in the last couple of years. Their implementation isn't always perfectly smooth - I've had some issues with certain features. Their people are mostly very helpful and prompt, but not always. Lastly, the mobile app is very useful, but again could be a little more user friendly. These are the reasons for 4 rather than 5 stars.

Not a user-friendly experience Interface: 3 of 5. Customer support: 3 of 5 most days Attitude: 0 of 5 Renewal policy: -5 of 5 They use an unintuitive interface and claim that the security protocols are more important than the user experience. They automatically renew the annual license and offer a ZERO refund policy. To cancel or downgrade, there is a small very small window 30 days before renewal to change the account. Total bunch of jerks.

Overall I love SmartVault Overall I love SmartVault, but my scanner won't save directly to it (probably scanner issue) and I can't (easily) make changes to names of folders that I want to add/alter. (operator error?). I have found that recent updates have been GREAT! and the more experience I get the better the software becomes. Love the "print" feature from Pro-Series tax software direct to SmartVault, so easy. I do find that my clients with little computer experience have difficulty accessing the software, others no issues at all. Good customer service! Very helpful representatives. Attended a couple of recent online trainings, too fast (presenter barely took a breath), too high level, zero questions at the end, those were disappointing, but I do know that I can follow up with representative when I get time.

Without a very functional app Without a very functional app, SmartVault has a huge drawback. All our clients ask about an easy app that works and the one that exists has not been updated in all the years we've been a part of SmartVault
