Maxima's simplify_sum function produces something similar looking:

(%i4) load("simplify_sum");
(%o4) "/usr/share/maxima/5.45.1/share/solve_rec/simplify_sum.mac"

(%i5) sum(1/factorial(n^2), n, 1, inf), simpsum;
(%o5) 'sum(1/(n^2)!,n,1,inf)

(%i6) simplify_sum(%);
1/'product(n^2+%,%,1,2*n+1) non-rational term ratio to nusum
1/'product(n^2+%,%,1,2*n+1) non-rational term ratio to nusum
(%o6) %f[1,4]([1],[1-%i,%i+1,1-sqrt(2)*%i,sqrt(2)*%i+1],1)
