Suitefiles is a game changer for our practice
The ability to drag and drop files into the web version or the drive version. The ability to save directly to the drive. The ease of finding documents. The ease of email templates, the ease of signing and getting signatures. There is nothing to not love about Suitefiles.
PROSI have moved 2 separate practices from 2 different document/accounting systems. Moved from Handisoft first time and moved from AE document management system. Easy to use, integrates exceptionally well with Xero. Storage is excellent and never lags when looking for information.
CONSHaving to click on the signing tag every time you want to put a signing field into a document. Just once would be great. Choose the signer and add to wherever signing is required.
Reason for choosing SuiteFiles
We considered FYIdocs for a couple of minutes but the lack of communication when considering the change and the product being too much like AE were offputting.
Reasons for switching to SuiteFiles
Move from the old clunky accounting products to new, streamlined, up to date and easy Suitefiles.

SF review
overall it is a great software and is easy to use, updates when done sometimes they dont have other things work, which i have made mention to support that when these updates occur further testing required in the test system so that when goes live things dont break down, also it takes a lot of time to fix once known to support
PROSease of access to client files, ease to drag and drop from external sources,
CONSsupport takes time to get back to us with a fix - sometimes warranted and sometimes should be a quick fix, support at times dont understand the problem so have to do a lot of screenshotting back and forth so the IT team understand the issue
Reason for choosing SuiteFiles
seemed to be one of the better options and with the document signing function, we were tossing up with SF and FYIdocs and decided to go with SF
Reasons for switching to SuiteFiles
cloud functionality wasnt there with handisoft so we went with XPM and therefore needed a cloud based doc management system

Suitefiles, good for what it does but not perfect
Overall the software is good and integrates with a range of softwares however there are just a few small functionality improvements to do with the suitefiles drive function and pdf management that would really make this a useful software.
PROSI like the online suitefiles where you are able to access documents and they autosave and you can access them from any computer. I also like that it can integrate with your outlook making it easier to save emails and documents. The suitefiles drive function is also good because it allows you to save documents similar to the old method which is good for staff who are poor with change.
CONSI dislike that you cannot open pdf's properly and highlight notes and leaves comments the way you normally would when opening them from your drive. The other item is to do with suitefiles drive, sometimes documents saved on the suitefiles drive don't upload to the cloud.

It has made running my business so much easier having everything in the one place and having browser access makes it much easier and i love the look of it and how easy it is to find what you want. I am inlove with suitefiles
PROSI love the fact that I can have everything in one place. I can have documents signed and stay in the client folder, the ability to sign and also having it linked to XPM so i can retrieve the contact details for signature easily. My favourite feature is the menu and the tier structure is just so much neater and more compact.
CONSI actually havent found anything i dont like yet to be honest

Reasons for switching to SuiteFiles
Suitefiles has everything in one place and i dont need to go outside of it very often to do somethng. I use it daily for everything. I also love the fact that my emails are integrated and saved as well.

I love SuiteFiles!
The SuiteFiles integration with Xero Practice Manager is seamless. It allows me to create client folder structures with a couple of clicks, and easily save documents into those folders using SuiteDrive. I can save emails from Outlook into SuiteFiles folders with just a few clicks. That's just a couple of things, it saves me time and angst every single day.
PROSThe team at SuiteFiles are amazing; so helpful. SuiteFiles has saved me hours and hours of time over the years. SuiteFiles made it easy for me to move to being paper-free. It also makes it easy for my document management to be simple and more importantly - organised.
CONSSuiteFiles brings in wonderful new features all the time and it's hard to keep up!
Reasons for switching to SuiteFiles
Google wasn't syncing properly so I moved to Microsoft 365. this meant the I moved from Google Drive to SharePoint. SuiteFiles is the connector to Xero Practice Manager.

A solid, allround document management system
Overall it's a good product. It does the job. Would love to see upgrades though.
PROSThe layout is simple and user friendly. It's easy to add users.
CONSTutorials are missing. We probably don't use all the features. It does lag a lot, can be very slow to load.
Reason for choosing SuiteFiles
I've always used Microsoft based products so I was comfortable using Suitefiles as it's Microsoft backed.

Fantastic System
We started using Suitefiles (SF) just prior to the first lockdown in 2020. The decision was part of a full move for our 5 person accounting practice from desktop based programs to cloud services and a reduction of the use of paper within the office. Although moving a decade old practice with all its old systems onto new cloud services came with its share of headaches SuiteFiles was not one of them. The process of setup was supported the whole way via the SuiteFiles customer support system and after only a short while all the staff had a pretty good handle on how it worked. We set up separate files for each of our clients as we went rather than doing the import in one go as the uploading of files dragged our internet speed down so it suited us to do them progressively. The ability to structure the file system to match how we originally stored electronic files, meant we could drag and drop all our historical electronic records in their existing file structure right into the SuiteFiles program which then provided continuity with the files being added going forward. Suite Files has become the central depository for all our clients information, new work is dropped into their current year file, workpapers and supporting docs are all saved in as we work on it. Draft copies of tax returns and accounts are saved there and once approved we use the SuiteFiles electronic signing system to have them approved. The ability to look up information and auto preview it are fantastic.
PROSLove the cloud based central storage and document signing
CONSnothing really, we cant imagine our business without it now

Review from an Australian perspective
Overall I am really enjoying SuiteFiles. It is a smart software with a passionate team behind them that are always helpful and thoughtful.
PROSI like that within SuiteFiles we can have multiple ways of running a loan. From interest being calculated daily, to monthly, with interest trails to brokers or management or without. It allows us flexibility in our initial negotiations, something we didn't have with our own software.
CONSThat I can't amend report dates. For example, I can't finalise entering our August data completely until 1st September, however once done and I drop out the report for emailing to management I can't update the report "as at 31st August" it has to remain dated 1st September which is not technically correct.
Reason for choosing SuiteFiles
It won on our pros and cons list. It ticked most of our boxes and I felt like we would be supported during the setting up period.

Trial of Super Suite
Really happy with it as a product very little downtime and very helpful and responsive to support issues.
PROSWe have used the standard SuiteFiles for a couple of years now and really love it. We are currently trialing the new Super Suite and we most like the connect function that will allow a bot our clients and their clients a distinct secure portal to drop off and pick up reports.
CONSThe only real issue we have is that all team members have the same access and permissions, which is dangerous in our new data breach reporting world. My junior team members should be able to be restricted from certain functions until they gain the experience required.
Vendor Response
Hi Alice, thank you for your review. If you get in touch with support@suitefiles.com, we can take you through access and permissions. In SuiteFiles, you can manage an individual's ability to access file and folder templates, delete files and folders etc. by managing user permissions. https://help.suitefiles.com/managing-individual-user-permissions Hope we can resolve this issue to your satisfaction, The team at SuiteFiles

SuiteFiles is Essential
We needed a cost-effective, cloud-based solution to simultaneously make files available to our offshore team and at the same time make our office as paperless as possible. SuiteFiles ticked all our boxes.
PROSSuiteFiles is very easy to use. We can scan documents from our scanner directly to SuiteFiles via a unique email address, rename and save to a client folder, and have the documents immediately available to our offshore team to get started on processing for us. Likewise they can save documents and we can immediately review and finalise in collaboration with them. SuiteFiles is also constantly being improved and upgraded and we don't need to do a thing - upgrades are deployed behind the scenes and we have immediate access to them. No issues of version control or downtime waiting for server-based software upgrades to be installed
CONSI can't think of a single thing we dislike about this software.

Vendor Response
Hi Debbie, thanks for your review! Re. wanting to copy folders, we've got a few solutions for you. 1. Folder templates to create a folder structure you would like to save for reuse. This can include subfolders and documents - https://help.suitefiles.com/creating-folder-templates 2. Bulk folder generation to create folders in multiple client folders at once. You can use folder templates you have previously saved to bulk create a subfolder structure - https://help.suitefiles.com/bulk-folder-generation 3. If you're wanting to copy existing folders and their contents, rather than create a shell of a folder structure, we can also suggest that entire folders and their contents can be copied in the File Explorer via our OneDrive integration - https://help.suitefiles.com/onedrive-setup

The best cloud-based DM system with the benefits of Sharepoint
Data migration went more or less according to plan. The training and support offered is first class and the NZ - UK time difference hasn't slowed things down. The software is evolving all the time and SuiteFiles are happy to listen to feature recommendations.
PROSWe really like that we retain the benefits of Sharepoint - security of data, collaboration tools etc. - whilst adding really simple and easy to use interface over the top. The ability for clients to e-sign documents without needing to use a portal was also key.
