Great Experience with CCH® SureTax®
We have recently implemented CCH® SureTax® to automate our sales tax billing and use tax accruals on material purchases. We are a company in the construction industry so sales tax is very complex.

Room for improvements
CCH SureTax was implemented with the connection through Netsuite to account for sales taxes. This has not resolved any of our business problems but only created more steps in the process of tracking, processing, and paying sales taxes. We have lost transparency as everything is not kept on the CCH website and is not easily tracked back into Netsuite. When filing, the CCH team handles it, but we have to be available to give access codes to the state tax portals so they can process it. The timing is usually an issue because there is no coordination of when they will be processed and when our time is available to send over the verification codes.

Trustworthy system!
We use CCH SureTax system to manage all things related to sales tax: calculations, exemption certificates, credits and refunds. This includes sales and use tax compliance work and staying on top of requesting and updating customers' certifications. CCH SureTax is a useful system to automate many processes in our daily routine work.

CCH® SureTax® - a Solid Aid to Tax Prep for Telecoms
We use CCH® SureTax® to keep track of the taxes on our billing accounts in Rev.io. We are a telecom and as you may know, the taxes can be a bit hairy, so having a product like CCH® SureTax® available to us makes our job much easier. Helps us sleep a little better too! CCH® SureTax® tracks not only the different types of tax, but also the various states the taxes affect and all of their individual rates.

SureTax!
We use it to file & pay our monthly sales & use tax. The after-sales service was not that great. It is not easy to get answers. The product is unstable; at the beginning of the month, some states were ok, but something was missing, and manual entries were needed. Until now, we have never received the resolution. All in all, it is ok. I am the reconciler of the company.

SureTax Solutions!!!
Excellent platform easy to integrate with your billing platform using API (good support and manual for implementation). Additionally, the web interface has a lot of helpful tools and reports to manage your services. We have been customers for more than 2 years, without any issue with the calculation of my customer taxes.

CCH SureTax is not recommended
I utilize CCH SureTax as a sales tax processing software. CCH connects with my ERP system and applies sales tax to customer orders based on location and tax setup on our customer cards. We further utilize CCH to file state sales tax returns in multiple states.
February 22, 2024
SureTax has been Great!
I use SureTax integrated with Microsoft Dynamics GP. This is to help with taxation on the sales order and also the final output, the invoice itself.
February 22, 2024
Good but could be improved
The company uses CCH® SureTax® to look up tax rates using Zip codes so that we can correctly price orders. I support the people that are doing these tax look ups.
February 21, 2024
Robust Tax management tool
We use CCH® SureTax® to automatically calculate tax amounts for products based on pre-configured bundles that our customer's purchase. We utilize the API to do this calculation and return accurate values to then pass on to and charge our customers for as a part of the full invoice. We also generate reporting from the CCH® SureTax® portal to assist with compliance and reporting.
February 20, 2024
CCH® SureTax® is a winner!
We use SCCH® SureTax® to get real time sales tax quotes for our orders. The software has enabled us to accurately tax all of our customers based on their location and what is being provided to them. It gives us trust that our tax information is done properly.

Solid Exemption Tool.
Suretax is a verification tool to ensure the business accurately collects and reports tax. Suretax is used to verify the accuracy of sales numbers. Suretax addresses the problem of accurately taxing or exempting each customer transaction. Suretax addresses the problem of expired exemptions. Most users interface with Suretax through D365's callout to verify the transaction live. A select group of users populate and maintain Suretax and use it to generate data on demand.

Thoughts on SureTax.
The company I work for currently uses it for tax calculations and reporting for various entities in both the US and outside the US. Reporting is run on a monthly basis to assist with tax return compliance and payment of taxes due to the appropriate jurisdictions. It is also used for running audit checks against the ERP the company uses.

Our experience with CCH SureTax since 2021.
We currently have SureTax built into our ERP system to maintain sales tax rates, taxability, and reporting. Nexus is very easy to maintain plus SureTax even notifies us if we are approaching a threshold in a different state that we do not have Nexus in so we can get registered there to also collect sales tax. We currently collect taxes in 26 states. I could not imagine keeping track of all of the tax codes, rates, etc.

Skip This Solution
We use CCH® SureTax® as an add-on in Microsoft Dynamics to calculate sales tax on our invoices, sales orders, and quotes across multiple related companies. CCH® SureTax® communicates with another product that manages sales tax exemption certificates and doesn't charge sales tax when an exemption certificate is on file for the ship-to state. We added this product on to remove our Customer Service Team from haphazardly allowing a customer to claim exemption without providing proper documentation that was analyzed by the Tax Department.

Saves Time while reporting however a slow server speed
We utilize CCH® SureTax® by reconciling S&U Returns throughout the U.S.A for several of our companies. It allows quick reconciliation of returns, easy payments, and less frustration while filing due to the differences in the various state returns. We use CCH® SureTax® to remit & pay returns for us and we monitor issues on the CCH® SureTax® Dashboard. Waiting for the websites during the uploading processes and loading processes are time-consuming. I would like to see quicker uploads and faster processing to the next screen in CCH® SureTax® and the CCH Dashboard.

Would Not Recommend this product
We use CCH® SureTax® to import transactions and then we use the return site as well to process our returns. They also calculate the tax on our online orders. I'm the main one that uses the CCH® SureTax® platform to make sure that all of our transactions are accounted for.

Telecommunications Sure Tax review
We use Suretax to receive tax files for our telecommunications reseller clients. We pull their tax files and translate this to pay their Telecom taxes.

Okay, but could be better
We have went with you guys to file our sales tax for us, but it is not going well. Things are not getting filed correctly, I have to go in and take out all the negative amounts and correct the return based off of that, things are not going to the correct place, I have to add all the locals and any problems we have. It is much easier for me to file the returns than to have you guys file for us and it was supposed to be the other way around. Also, every time we are inquiring about something or need help with something it takes forever to get a response back from someone causing issues. Things just are not getting done easily and as quickly as it should be.

Two thumbs up
SureTax provides research and notice of changes in sales tax laws in the many jurisdictions. SureTax maintains a Mapping Guide based on tax laws used to map Yardi product and service codes to Group/Item numbers in the Mapping Guide.
SureTax is used to calculate sales tax on our invoices and prepare sales tax returns. Yardi files the returns and pays the tax.

CCH needs improvement
We use CCH to calculate sales tax on invoices to customers. CCH keeps tax rates up to date so we do not have to worry about whether we are invoicing the correct tax amount.
