"Powerful, Flexible, and Backed by Outstanding Support"
What do you like best about Square 9 Softworks?

This is a highly powerful and flexible application. It operates with great reliability and is backed by outstanding support. When working on projects, I have found their staff to be both knowledgeable and approachable.

We use the workflow engine quite intense and most likely for use cases it wasn't intended for. But despite the stress we are adding to the system it works like a charm and allows to easily build the most flexible and demanding workflows and wicket solutions! The interface is user friendly and become more moderns and easy to use with every new version Square9 puts out Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Square 9 Softworks?

Troubleshooting OCR-related issues can be quite challenging and often requires unexpected workarounds, which is surprising given that OCR is a core feature. While I am usually able to accomplish what I need thanks to these workarounds, there is definitely room for improvement. The audit log presents a similar situation. It records who performed an action on a document in Global Search, but it does not capture exactly what was done. I would appreciate an audit log that provides details similar to the version history feature in MS SharePoint. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Thanks for your review! We've made some significant strides in our data extraction capabilities in the past few months. We have extraction profiles that let you fine-tune your OCR extraction, along with AI-based extraction that reads data more easily than ever (with much less maintenance).

I'll pass your feedback to our product team on the audit trail. It is worth mentioning that we do support versioning, which may allow you to see the individual changes that were made on a document if required.

"Global Search - Going 100% Digital"
What do you like best about Square 9 Softworks?

I love that I can search for any business document in one location, export it, print it, whatever I am needing to do. Also the fact that you can select who has access to which folders is a great security feature. This has helped our company be 100% paper less. I use this software numerous times a day as does many in our company. Customer support has been outstanding and highly recommend. When we first moved to Global Search it was very easy to implement and intergrate with our every day processes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"At the tip of your fingers"
What do you like best about Square 9 Softworks?

The ease of accessing all files without having to go to a paper copy.

We use this on a daily basis and we couldn't ask for a more convenient program. In an industry where we have to keep 40 years worth of testing results we would need a warehouse just to store everything on paper.

All levels of employees can access this with ease.

Customer support has always been very willing and accessible to help us if we need help. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Square 9 Softworks?

"UMC Food Ministry review"
What do you like best about Square 9 Softworks?

The proactive approach it allows my company to have when reviewing documents. We are in a business where we must have supporting documentation for every penny of expenditures and must have these readily avaialable for the state agencies in which we report to. Having the AP workflow tool eases my anxiety of whether I will be able to 1) find and 2) timely gather all expenses and invoices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Square 9 Softworks?

It is very complex and implementation costs can be expensive, I see a lot of benefit in the long term but we are also being cautious with our dollars at the moment due to some other asset costs taking precedent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Works"
What do you like best about Square 9 Softworks?

There are many good features of Square 9 but I appreciate the ease of finding documents within minutes vs. digging through a dusty file room and having those documents digitally vs. paper cluttering up a desk. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Square 9 Softworks?

The workflows have helped our engineer department with permits and our finance department with processing invoices. My only struggle is my lack of knowledge of how the workflows function but I'm looking forward to using the End User Learning Center to learn more. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
