Senta

Best Value

Practice Management

Affordable practice management with powerful automation.

Overview

Senta punches well above its weight for the price. It offers practice management, CRM, automated client communications, and task scheduling in a single platform — at a fraction of what Karbon costs.

The automation engine is Senta's secret weapon. You can set up automated email sequences for client onboarding, document requests, deadline reminders, and more. Firms that use these automations properly find they save hours every week on routine communication.

The interface is functional rather than beautiful, and the learning curve is moderate. But for the price, the feature set is remarkable.
