What do you like best about Ascend?

I don't use the full function of the application, but what I do use it has been really easy to find the items I am looking for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ascend?

I wish it was easier to find the Email the invoices are coming from. With the current set up you have to look thoroughly before finding this link. Maybe make a links in order by name and instead of side by side, put in a column. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Intuitive & Easy to learn."
4.5/5
What do you like best about Ascend?

The most helpful thing with Smart Touch AP is the ease of use. Searching for accounts is quick and easy with this program. The system also learns and begins to guess the coding for invoices and most of the time - they're correct. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ascend?

Downsides to Smart Touch AP is the time it takes to get the invoice loaded for us to begin work. At first, it was a learning curve for me because I could have already entered the invoice in the time it took to show up in STAP. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A smooth well executed project with Ascends great team"
5/5
What do you like best about Ascend?

SmartTouch AP has been a great asset for us, the ease of use and the OCR success rate makes using it so much better than our prior tool - the team spends a lot less time fixing what is stopping the invoices from integrating and just codes them Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ascend?

Not really sure if it is a SmartTouch issue but sometimes the time it takes for certain cells to populate can take longer than expected, but that is probably the only negative Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good imaging and OCR option"
4/5
What do you like best about Ascend?

The ability to get invoices instantly and directly from vendors via email ingestion is extremely time-saving and reduces human error of manually having to input invoices. The OCR works great and reduces errors due to not having to input the information manually. The customer service at Ascend is outstanding and we enjoy working with our business partners. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Ascend?

There are a few kinks that have taken an extended amount of time to get fixed -- such as the way the invoice dates are coming through. I also wish that the users could have more control in certain situations, like when a large invoice gets sent through and holds up all other invoices, it would be nice to cancel that invoice on my own without opening a ticket.

I like the fact that most invoices are automatically filled in. I usually have to add a spend category and the store location. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
