"We got there in the end."
What do you like best about SoftCo AP Automation?

SoftCo AP automation is an extremely good system for workflow of cases, approval and sign-off. It also has very strong audit capabilities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SoftCo AP Automation?

The UI can be cumbersome and processes complex to complete.

Performance can is underwhelming at times and the system requires consistant monitoring and housekeeping, over and above what we'd experience with other systems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Softco - a success story"
What do you like best about SoftCo AP Automation?

SoftCo provided a tailored end-to-end purchase to pay solution that met the requirements of our business in a practical and friendly manner.

SoftCo works. It is simple to use for our internal customers and our suppliers. The helpdesk support is excellent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SoftCo AP Automation?

It is a great solution. However, additional enhancements to the supplier portal would be good to make it as simple as possible to use for them so as to minimise contact with our PL team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Automation of PO process made easy"
What do you like best about SoftCo AP Automation?

The implementation of Softco has removed the need for paper PO's moving around the office for approval. Everything is online and easily traceable. It even allows our overseas colleagues to participate in the approval process where required. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SoftCo AP Automation?

With some tasks, the number of clicks and positioning of buttons on the screen to complete a task can be a little annoying. Redesign of the front end with data entry in mind. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Softco - excellent vendor and system"
What do you like best about SoftCo AP Automation?

Easy to use and intuitive system that has become critical in managing our supplier management and accounts payable processes. The system was competitively priced and the implementation time quite quick.

The implementation team were fantastic to deal with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SoftCo AP Automation?

No major dislikes. Reporting and Analytics could be a little stronger but these are bespoke requirements to our organisation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"SoftCoAP product review"
What do you like best about SoftCo AP Automation?

SoftCoAP allows our Accounts Payable team to process Purchase Orders from our ERP efficiently and make sure vendor invoices are paid in a timely manner. The SoftCoAP support team partners with our IT team to troubleshoot and solve any problems that arise. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SoftCo AP Automation?

Our AP team would like more robust reporting functionality within SoftCoAP. It's possible that this will be addressed in the new version 10.6 Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"SoftCo Convert"
What do you like best about SoftCo AP Automation?

The best thing about SoftCo is the instant automation.

This is super effective when you have an overdue invoice to clear and can process and get approved quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SoftCo AP Automation?

Too many buckets to work through sometimes make it challenging to find which bucket an invoice is located in, and This could be improved by reducing the number of buckets or making it more transparent where the invoice is. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Allows larger volumes to be processed but not without it's teething issues"
What do you like best about SoftCo AP Automation?

Being able to easily give non finance business users the access to view and approve invoices as required with being able to see the document and also be able to see the history of the approvals Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SoftCo AP Automation?

Being able to extract out data through reports and review how the team are performing is a real issue for us at the moment, it's not enabled us to easily set KPIs and monitor the team and suppliers we are processing Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"From sales team to implementation and support; pleasure of working with"
What do you like best about SoftCo AP Automation?

Honesty and transparency. And the product is solid. We had very minimal technical issues rolling this out and anytime there is a question or an issue the Softco team is prompt to reply Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SoftCo AP Automation?

I honestly do not have any bad comments (and trust me; I'm always the type to find issues with vendors) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Softco AP Automation"
What do you like best about SoftCo AP Automation?

The most helpful functionality within Softco has been the Posting Models and template imports. These are very handy, especially with vendor invoices that have multiple GL Accounts and Cost Center allocations. Softco has also helped a great deal when it comes to month-end accruals. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SoftCo AP Automation?

Once an invoice has been sent out to be verified or approved, I cannot see the invoice in any folders other than the main search of all invoices. It would be helpful if there was a specific folder of "invoices sent for approval" which would have those all in one place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Sophie Dodgson of SoftCo AP Automation

Dear Gary,

This is Sophie from SoftCo here. Within SoftCoAP there is a feature that gives you the visibility you are looking for. Within the “Monitoring” folder (available to AP Team users) navigate to “Awaiting Approval” and if you select by user this will give you the detail you are after. If you would like to contact our Customer Support team, they can arrange a session to assist you with this.
