We Love Our Customers
When we implemented SmartVault, it allowed us to grow our firm exponentially....The integration with our tax software, Intuit Lacerte, has been just unbelievable. We do a lot of tax preparation, and when I first started, we were doing about 700 tax returns; now, we're more than double that at about 1,800.Nick Boscia Boscia & Boscia P.C.
Another aspect that I really love is the integration with Lacerte, which is our tax program. We can directly print the PDFs to SmartVault, and then print the PDF so the tax return pages are in one PDF. We can also print the e-file forms to another PDF. It’s so quick and much more efficient than what we used to do, and our admin loves it because she doesn’t have to go through and manually pull those pages and send them however she needed to send them to the client.John Coleman CPA, owner of Commonwealth Business Services
We use Lacerte for our tax product and the integration between Lacerte and SmartVault is incredible. Being able to not have to duplicate client information when there's changes whatever it's just automatically synced between the two systems. But, more important than that is the bulk print capability from Lacerte into SmartVault. When we are at the end of the day ready to e-file tax returns we can bulk print all the data to SmartVault for final storage or for sending it out to our clients.Caleb L. Jenkins RLJ Financial
