"Basware AP PRO"
5/5
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.

"Efficient Invoice Management, But With Room for Improvement"
4/5
What do you like best about Basware?

I like that Basware makes it possible to automatically read invoices, which saves a lot of time. Also, the options to export large amounts of data and the ability to import coding from Excel for previously booked invoices are convenient. This way, I don't have to create an extensive coding for invoices each time. Additionally, Basware has many features, which led us to switch from Exact. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Basware?

It is sometimes slow and not everything is always stored correctly. Furthermore, errors are not always clearly described. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Robust AP Automation & E-Invoicing with Strong Compliance and Fraud Detection"
4/5
What do you like best about Basware?

What I like best about Basware is its robust AP automation and e-invoicing capabilities, which streamline invoice processing from receipt to payment with high touchless rates—up to 89% in some cases—saving significant time for finance teams. The built-in fraud detection via AI algorithms and comprehensive compliance tools, including global e-invoicing mandates and audit trails, provide peace of mind during regulatory audits. In RTR contexts, this integrates well to optimize working capital through early payment discounts and real-time spend visibility. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Basware?

Common complaints about Basware include its high implementation costs and complex integration with ERP systems, which can prolong setup and increase expenses for RTR teams. Users frequently mention performance lags, limited reporting flexibility, and overcomplicated interfaces that require extensive training. Additionally, customization options fall short for complex workflows, and slow issue resolution from support adds frustration during peak periods. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Hannah Greedy of Basware

Thank you for taking the time to share such a detailed perspective.

It is great to hear automation, risk controls, and regulatory coverage are delivering clear value for finance and treasury teams.

The points raised around deployment effort, system responsiveness, reporting depth, and support during busy periods are noted and shared with the right teams to help shape future priorities.

"Streamlined Invoice Processing with Opportunities for Improvement"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Basware?

I really like the integrated and automated invoice upload and data extraction features of Basware, as they make my life easier by eliminating manual entry. The mailbox directly connected to Basware allows it to extract data from invoices, usually in PDF format, and populate it into the system automatically. Also, I find the message function helpful for communicating with the purchase order owner to ensure 100% accurate payment allocation. Additionally, the transition was smooth and the API setting was straightforward when working with the supplier. I appreciate that the process, which was previously manual, can now match invoices automatically within Basware and be further processed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Basware?

The search function is useful but not that user friendly. I have to set enough parameters to find what I am looking for. I would suggest allowing the user to have the ability to set search defaults to reduce the repetition. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Hannah Greedy of Basware

Thank you for sharing this experience.

It is good to see automated capture, matching, and supplier connectivity replacing manual work and supporting accurate payments.

The built-in messaging clearly helps keep handoffs clean during processing.

The suggestion around saved search defaults is useful and highlights a practical way to reduce repeated steps.

"Efficient for Invoice Matching, Room for Reporting Improvement"
4/5
What do you like best about Basware?

I like the simplicity of using the Basware system, yet it still meets our complex needs. I appreciate that the support team is on hand to offer help and look into customizations that can work for our business. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Basware?

I think the reporting suite sitting behind layers of access is a challenge. I think that having different access tiers creates problems with incomplete datasets and the business not being able to report on the information in full. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"User-Friendly and Efficient for AP Specialists"
4/5
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.

Response from Hannah Greedy of Basware

Thank you for the feedback.

It is good to hear the system supports daily AP work and helps teams stay productive.

The point about clearer error messages and stuck queues is valuable and highlights where smoother exception handling would reduce manual effort.
