Overall it has been positive and we have been able to see and quantify the value added by square 9.

Replied August 2026 --- ### Decent Automation, but Slow and Hard-to-Reach IT Support - Overall rating: 3/5 - Reviewer: Meghan C. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Packaging and Containers - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: July 2026 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered The system does the basics for us. It saves us from the manual work, but it could be better. The more I've had to deal with IT support, the less I like the company. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 3/5 - Customer support: 2/5 - Functionality: 3/5 #### Pros It saves my team from manually saving hundreds of documents in a day and the templates work for the most part. #### Cons The IT support model. There is no way to get in contact with an actual person. You submit a ticket via email/voicemail and are at the mercy of them getting back to you. Last time our system was down for 5 days because it took that long for somebody to reach out to me. #### Vendor response Thank you for your review. We are sorry to hear you have had issues with support. We are staffing and added 2 folks to our support desk who can open a case through https://help.mysquare9.com/ and help self triage for faster responses. Replied July 2026 --- ### Powerful Document Capture Solution with Responsive Support - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: John B. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Higher Education - Company size: 201-500 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for less than 2 years - Reviewed: December 2025 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. I use GlobalCapture and GlobalSearch to automate invoice coding for bill payment and as a document management solution. The platform delivers strong automation capabilities at an affordable price point. Support has been a standout as they take a creative approach to building solutions that fit our specific processes. Overall, it's been a reliable system that has improved efficiency for our team. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Excellent value for money compared to other solutions. The AI-assisted invoice coding is highly accurate and has streamlined our accounts payable process. Customization and workflow building is much easier than competing products. User and group management provides robust access control while remaining easy to configure. Customer support is responsive and works collaboratively to solve problems. Document management offers secure storage with robust indexing. #### Cons When a document gets lost or misrouted during processing, it can be confusing to troubleshoot and get it back on track. Clearer recovery options or better visibility into where a document went wrong would be helpful. #### Reasons for switching to Square 9 Etrieve could not accommodate our complex requirements and the implementation stalled. Square9 provided the adaptability we needed and delivered where the previous solution fell short. #### Vendor response Hi John, thanks for your review! Because our workflow engine is highly customizable and flexible, we can add some new buttons or options to help you better handle those misrouted documents. If you can reach out to us at info@square-9.com, I'll connect you with one of our resources who can assist. We appreciate your feedback.

Replied March 2026 --- ### Implementation made easy - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Gisele S. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Food Production - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 6 months - Reviewed: February 2026 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

No incentive was offered I've been an IT Admin user of Square 9's GlobalSearch (and previously SmartSearch) and GlobalCapture for our company's document repository solution for around 8 years. We're currently in a project to migrate to the latest version. They're a good team to work with. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros The software platform is pretty stable, a occasional to rare need for an IIS Reset, support is knowledgable, responses are quick. #### Cons The Capture Batch Manager should allow grouping by Batch Number like the old tool from SmartSearch Capture. Not a Con about the company though, just a place for improvement. #### Vendor response Hi Frank, thanks for the review and feedback! We'll pass that along to our development team. If you are not using our latest version of GlobalCapture, the whole Batch Manager has been redesigned to allow you to better interact with your processes. We appreciate you being a Square 9 customer.
