What is CCH® SureTax®?
CCH SureTax is designed by tax experts to help businesses comply with the most complex sale and use tax requirements. This cloud-based sales tax automation platform aims to ensure customers accurately calculate, collect, and remit taxes to the correct authorities every time.
Boasting 100+ years of tax research experience, CCH SureTax assures customers stay on top of constant tax legislation changes. The sales and use tax rates and rules get automatically updated, reflecting 100,000+ annual changes for 24,000+ authorities in the US and Canada.
CCH SureTax automates the compliance process. With a single login, customers can access their Calculations, Returns, Reporting, and Exemption Certificate Management (ECM) modules. The data flows directly from one module to another, to increase accuracy and eliminate human error associated with manual data manipulation. All changes and transactions can be recreated in the event of an audit and provide customers with a strong audit defense.
Additionally, its Power BI reporting functionality allows businesses to analyze sales and use taxes on a more granular level than what might be typical of an ERP, to ensure returns' accuracy and get more insights from sales data.
The company also offers Professional Services, such as Nexus Study, Managed and Outsourced Services, allowing customers to partially or fully outsource sales and use tax compliance.

February 16, 2024
Thoughts on SureTax.
- Need better reporting overall, not robust enough.
- Not detailed enough info in system for tax rates and rules.
- Allowed for some automation in the tax process.
February 16, 2024
Our experience with CCH SureTax since 2021.
- We would have to hire multiple people to maintain everything SureTax handles for us.
- Returns could easily be a full-time job if someone had to manually file them for all of our Nexus states. The yearly cost is a fraction of what a salary would be.
- Breaking down our tax numbers by state, county, jurisdiction, city, etc, would be impossible to do manually.
February 16, 2024
Skip This Solution
- In my opinion, the reporting process is very tedious. We spend more time than necessary reviewing the reports because the system frequently goes down.
- In our experience, California reporting takes days. Hundreds of individual invoices must be reviewed as the report cannot be trusted to provide the correct shipping location.
February 16, 2024
Saves Time while reporting however a slow server speed
- saved time due to automation
- had to run newly designed reports and templates to accomodate CCH® SureTax®'s needs
- Repetitive reporting due to daily payments being made out of our bank accounts
February 16, 2024
Would Not Recommend this product
- Some months it saves us time but we have to be very through with reviewing the returns because, in our experience, they aren't always correct
- The main time saver was having them register for the tax accounts on our behalf.
