## Reviews

### "Using Sumac for my Not-for-Profit" — 3.0/5

> **Uyen Pham -** | *22 July 2024* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like that it creates my charitable tax receipt numbers for me automatically. I like the new interface, it's very user-friendly.
> 
> **Cons**: I don't like that I have to store the receipts locally. It's not in the program itself so if someone is using the program or having to find the receipt itself, they have to find it on the local computer. Fine for me right now, as I'm the only one using Sumac at my organization, but I can see how this can be a nightmare for larger orgs.

> 
> **Pros**: it puts everyone together so you can easily find and keep track of the clients we are working with, customer support has been really helpful
> 
> **Cons**: it can be tricky to figure out how to run reports, we have a cap of how many people we can use so always trying to ensure we are working within out cap

### "Efficient Case Management and Reporting Tool for Nonprofits" — 5.0/5

> **Maryam** | *22 October 2025* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Sumac makes client management and reporting much easier. I really liked how organized the system is—tracking intakes, case notes, and service outcomes is simple and efficient. It’s also helpful for generating reports and analyzing data for funders.
> 
> **Cons**: At times, the system can be a bit slow when multiple users are logged in, and some customization features (like form templates) require admin access or additional setup support.
> 
> My overall experience with Sumac has been positive. It has improved how we document client interactions, manage referrals, and collect data across multiple programs. The interface is user-friendly once you’re familiar with it, and the technical support team is responsive whenever issues come up. Overall, it’s a great tool for nonprofit organizations that want to streamline case management and reporting.
