### "As a tax professional with various types of clients I love it all in one place"

April 10, 2018

5.0

Having a secure portal and most of my client tax information in one place.

Pros

The creators and tech support of this program are responsive to the end users requests and the site is updated, the tech support amazing, and until they get a feature installed, will help you with a work around to use in the mean time.

Cons

That I cannot print lists easily, that clients cannot fill out their own portal information, and most importantly, that I cannot due my clients regular income taxes here thereby having all the important information saved in place.

November 23, 2021

4.0

Pros

Communication tab, organization of tasks.

Cons

We would like to be able to integrate ability to update worksheets/ documents in internal files, just like you would in sheets or docs (if you want to edit, you have to do so outside of Canopy and re-upload. We would like to be able to quote in the system.

Reason for choosing Canopy

CRM abilities, task management, ease of organization.

### "Great product extraordinary customer support!"

May 30, 2018

5.0

In it's fully developed form this product would be second to none! At the moment we use the product primarily for form population and transcript reports.

Pros

Integrated Form population - detailed client survey - transcript reports - assistant for innocent spouse and penalty abatement

Cons

no chronological record per client to record calls and history of actions taken - no integrated calendar per user per client integrated to a record showing actions taken - email is not very functional or user-friendly at this point.

### "Pretty good, but constantly getting better!"

December 9, 2022

4.0

Pros

Canopy's technical and customer support teams are why I keep using this product - they innovate and constantly add features and refine the product to make it easier to use, more robust, and feature-rich.

Cons

Invoicing and billing is limited for what I'd consider my needs are. I'd also love the ability to sort the contact list by custom fields

### "Makes dealing with the IRS much easier! "

April 4, 2018

5.0

Organization in tax resolution

Pros

This makes workflow for tax resolution manageable. This business is a bunch of hurry up and wait. This system helps to refresh my memory while transitioning to different clients.

Cons

Not so much a con, as much as anticipation for all the new options that are coming. They promised state forms when I bought and they delivered. I know when they say new options will be available, they will be delivered. Great upstart!

### "I have had a good experience using Canopy. The website functionality has been very good."

April 5, 2018

4.0

Pros

I like the ability to produce documents that are ready to deliver to clients or the IRS once I have completed the required forms. Additionally, I like the ability to make changes without having to reproduce documents. The link that can be sent directly to clients for data input has been very helpful. Having tax transcripts that are readily accessible on my desktop is a very important feature.

Cons

I think that the software should include a feature that will allow you download transcripts overnight. I think the software would be enhanced if some of the additional features that follow are included in the software: Case Diagnostics, Fee Calculator, Searchable IRS Manual and IRS Contact List. It would be very helpful if other users within the same office could utilize Canopy at some add on rate or multiple user environment. Some of the tax resolution practitioners are part of small office environments. It would be good to have a product that could better fit the needs of the smaller office environments. T

### "Works wonderful "

December 22, 2022

4.0

Over all it did help us get out many returns and have satisfied clients who liked being digital.

Pros

It has been helpful in taking accountability and keeping all documents in one place.

Cons

That we did not know enough about how to get the reports we needed to keep up with how many returns we actually got out and how many we still needed. As well having a hard time with digital signatures, clients were not able to get past the security questions which was odd.

### "Great tool for managing client tasks"

May 3, 2018

5.0

Pros

I like being able to assign tasks and monitor them. I like how easy it is to use for our clients. They have very little trouble navigating the site.

Cons

There are not a lot of things that I don't like about the software. Sometimes, this is not a frequent event, it doesn't allow me to edit an existing invoice, but once I refresh, the issue is taken care of.

Pros

I love the file sharing, and document storage solution the best.
