What's New

File Uploads and Attachments

We've upgraded Sumac's file uploads and attachments functionality to a modern, integrated file management solution. With this update, files attached to client contact records in Case Portal are now accessible in Sumac Desktop, and vice versa.

Benefits include:
  1. Unified file management across Case Portal and Sumac Desktop
  2. Easy access to attached files from multiple platforms
  3. Enhanced security and reliability of file storage
  4. Future-proofing our system for upcoming features and improvements

Interested in Case Portal? It’s our solution for nonprofit organisations that need to provide case management services while in the field. Contact us at satisfaction@societ.com to learn more!

To use this feature, open a contact record and navigate to the "Attachments" tab.



While we transition to this new function, the existing file upload/attachment functionality will remain intact and will still be available in the “Facts” tab



This is just the beginning! We're working on extending this functionality to Case Records, communication records, and more. Let us know which feature would have the biggest impact for you by emailing us at product@societ.com.
