Deputy Manager - Freight Basware / EVO / Tradeshift Implementation

"Basware AP PRO"
What do you like best about Basware?

BT Cloud Scan proves to be a highly effective tool for managing scanning processes involving various business partners. Its primary function is to facilitate the transition from paper invoices to E-invoices within the freight process, covering operations in over 29 countries. Using the BT portal, we can access detailed information on both sent and received invoices, whether they arrive by email or through EDI Tradeshift categories. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Basware?

Yes, we have observed that our business partners are facing delays with scanning from the Xerox team when using EMAIL, TRADESHIFT, and BT modes. We are receiving numerous escalation emails from business partners regarding these scanning delays. When we submit invoices to the Basware workflow queue, we do receive an acknowledgement from the scanning team confirming acceptance, which is helpful. However, it would be even better if we could also receive a separate acknowledgement once the documents have actually been scanned into our workflow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"User-Friendly and Efficient for AP Specialists"
What do you like best about Basware?

I really appreciate how user-friendly Basware is. As an AP Specialist, it makes my daily tasks much easier and helps me accomplish my goals efficiently. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Basware?

Basware could improve by providing clearer error messages. I have noticed that invoices often get stuck in the queues, even when there is nothing actually wrong with them. As a result, I frequently have to manually intervene to clear these invoices from Basware. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Basware is definitely recommended."
What do you like best about Basware?

With Basware, our AP team has improved on accuracy, reduced work volumes, and secures leadership across global performances and procedures. With their SmartPDF feature, the system is adapting to our invoices on a daily basis. Their customer support team has been very supportive to our unique needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Basware?

I feel Basware can be more transparent on features and updates available to us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy Invoicing, But Needs Better Code Search Options"
What do you like best about Basware?

The convenience of taking care of invoices with a few clicks on the screen and being done with it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Basware?

I would appreciate it if the system included a wider range of words when searching for the best code to use for invoicing. This would make it easier to find the most suitable code. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Once you get used to the layout, it gets much easier to use"
What do you like best about Basware?

All of my invoices are in one central location and can be accessed anytime. The top toolbar is clear and organized. When searching for invoices, I like how you can search by PO, Receipt #, ect so that your results are narrowed down and you only get exactly what you are searching for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Basware?

The screen isn't always consistent when viewing my invoices from the notification center tab. Sometimes I can easily print my invoices in one click, but sometimes, I have to make multiple clicks to pull something. It would be nice to have a "view invoice" button that would automatically pop this up without clicking, downloading and opening an attachment. It would be nice to get an email notification when you have something in your notifications. I have to log in multiple times daily to check these as this is how my work is assigned to me with my role. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Rob Wilson of Basware

"P2P solution with EDI"
What do you like best about Basware?

The interface is pretty much very user friendly and love the dashboard make it more easy to navigate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Basware?

1. There is no Basware forum

2. It's hard to get the answer you need when you try to search from Service Now portal

3. Most of the time it took forever to get the answer from Basware Support from the time you raise the ticket

4. Recently I have submit change request for EDI implementation and Basware already billed the subscription fee eventhough the project hasn't been tested and go through UAT. During that Basware support actually has delayed in response but nonetheless they already start the clock to bill us! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Basware Processing Payments Review"
What do you like best about Basware?

It is an easy way to flow payments through to the correct approvers. It is set up in a way that is easy to follow and utilize even for new users. Additionally, it ensures all needed information is entered in which reduces inefficiencies. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Basware?

It would be nice if there was more flexibility to select who the workflow goes to (i.e. bypassing a reviewer when they are on vacation) - right now only specific people are able to do this. Additionally, it would be good if warnings could be set up by the team for common mistakes (i.e. when processing payments between 2 banks, we need to select Wire but many team members miss this). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Rob Wilson of Basware

Great to hear your feedback and really interesting suggestion, I will pass on to our product development team as this must be a common challenge that we could help solve.

Thanks,

Rob

"Basware - Top Notch, User Friendly"
What do you like best about Basware?

Super user-friendly platform, easy to train others with. Love the smart-coding feature which saves a lot of time. Overall, I think it is a very proficient platform to use for Accounts Payable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Basware?

I do not like when there is a simple fix or typo after an invoice is reviewed/approved, but it must be returned all the way back to the person doing the Header Review level. Depending how long it takes for others to review, it can take extra long and delay payment even further when the solution was very minimal in fixing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Rob Wilson of Basware

Thank you for your comprehensive review on G2. It's rewarding to hear that you find Basware's platform super user-friendly and proficient for Accounts Payable, particularly praising our smart-coding feature. Features like these are designed to deliver the efficiencies you mention so its great to hear this working in action. We'd love to hear more on this so if you have time I'd love to connect with you regarding this, my email address is Robert.Wilson@basware.com

Your constructive feedback about the invoice review and approval process is invaluable. We understand the importance of efficient workflows, especially when it comes to time-sensitive tasks like invoice payments. Your point about delays due to simple fixes resonates with our commitment to improve. Rest assured, we will pass this feedback on to product management and will look to review this process for potential enhancements.

Your continued engagement with our platform and your willingness to share your experience provide us with strategic guidance to better serve our customers. If you have attended any of our previous events, we hope you found them beneficial and encourage you to participate in upcoming webinars.

Thanks again,

Rob Wilson
