Easy to learn and use, helps our office to be more efficient

This has cut down on tasks that used to be time consuming, such as appointment reminders. It is also easy to create templates for specific needs (such as referral bonuses or 'how-to' guides) so that you aren't re-typing the same emails and wasting time. It has been very easy to train new employees in it's use, which was a big plus. Some of my recent hires have used software in dental or chiropractic offices before and have commented on how much better SUMO is to use.

PROS

The reports/dashboards are extremely helpful in tracking information (such as appointments overall, appointments per location, tasks that are outstanding/have been accepted by different employees) and simple to create. We are able to have more information for clients saved in their profiles such as their appointment history, we can attach files (such as doctor's notes) and have graphs showing their weight loss progress.

Vendor Response

A Powerful Solution Backed by an Outstanding Team

Overall SUMO has provided our team with major improvements in scheduling efficiency and ease. I highly recommend that anyone who is utilizing Salesforce for the majority of their business processes. The product, the people, and the price are a winning combination.

PROS

The way SUMO works inside of Salesforce Sales Cloud is incredibly admin-friendly and provides users with many options for scheduling with clients. The team at SUMO has been a pleasure to work with from day 1 - covering everything from implementation to account management and support. Being able to instantly schedule or offer availability to clients in a few simple clicks, with all the necessary details included, has added a little bit of magic to our org.

CONS

There can be challenges in production orgs when it comes to updating/bug fixes. While it is a "con" to have occasional glitches in functionality or issues with a new release, the SUMO support team is incredibly responsive and great at getting them resolved. It's also worth noting that because there are so many features/options for scheduling it can be a bit tricky to ensure new users (or services) are added in all the right places.

Reason for choosing SUMO Scheduler

SUMO offered the solution that best met our specific needs while being customizable, built on the SFDC platform, and priced very reasonably.

Reasons for switching to SUMO Scheduler

We wanted a more powerful solution that did not require maintaining custom code and worked more seamlessly with Salesforce.

We're thrilled to hear that our solution has been a powerful and admin-friendly tool for scheduling and met your specific needs, offering customization, integration with Salesforce, and reasonable pricing.

Appointment Scheduling falls short

PROS

Our support rep is very responsive but it just doesn't seem make up for the number of bugs we have found after upgrading to the new CEP version or features that were previously available but are no longer.

CONS

We have been using SUMO Scheduler for more than six years and recently upgraded to the CEP version, which is more of a completely new install than an actual upgrade. We spent an enormous amount of time trying to get it to work in the first place (much longer than anticipated for what we thought would be on par for an upgrade) and now after going live we were disappointed with the number of issues we have experienced. Some of them are "that feature isn't available in CEP yet" or others were identified as a system issue that we discovered.

Vendor Response

Thank you for sharing your feedback on SUMO Scheduler. We appreciate your recognition of our responsive support representative. However, we understand that the number of bugs you have encountered after upgrading to the new CEP version, as well as the absence of previously available features, has been disappointing. Upgrading to the CEP version should have provided a seamless transition, and we apologize for any inconvenience and frustration this may have caused. We understand the time and effort you invested in getting it to work as anticipated. We take your concerns seriously and are committed to addressing and resolving any bugs or missing features promptly. We apologize for the inconvenience this has caused and appreciate your continued support and patience. We are dedicated to providing you with a reliable and feature-rich scheduling solution and look forward to restoring your confidence in SUMO Scheduler.

SUMO helped us implement a scheduling solution for our providers in a quick and easy way.

PROS

SUMO helped us implement a scheduling solution for our providers in a quick and easy way. The Work shift Load and changes are very easy, and the Scheduling Site front end is very easy to setup an appointments. I see they have lot of other options which we do not even use in our business use case. Configuring the scheduling site with clicks and buttons as per business use case is what i liked the most. And the production support response is very good and they helped us even in weekends when needed. And they took suggestions and feature request seriously and provided in there new releases. I would gladly recommend this product.

CONS

The only thing i would ask sumo is to provide a report or a dashboard to count remaining slots for provider so that we can load new availability.

I felt like their most important customer.

The amount of appointments that we are not able to make have increased by over 70%. My agents no longer have to play the game of back and forth to try to find a time that works for both parties. This app has been a game changer for our organization.

PROS

The seamless integration into Salesforce. We were looking for a solution for my agents to allow their clients to self serve the appointment scheduling aspect. This has worked out perfectly

CONS

There were a couple of little issues right after launch, but the customer support was very quick to modify our configuration so that it worked the correct way for our processes.
