Pros
"I love the fact that this product is easy to use, especially the fact that I can send PO to the office conveniently. I love it!"
"Simple interface, easy to use, easy to set up, great price point. This is a wonderful value for the money, especially when you're only charged for the active logins per month. "
"I love how user-friendly the program is, support is great, and there's many functionalities within the program for multi-use."
Cons
"Training and updates could be a little better. Confusing at first but once you get the hang of it, it is easy. "
"I would like to be about to have more ability to customize some things but other that that is great."
"Would like the ability to close multiple POs at once. No native support for Invoices to come through the system. "

A game-changer for all our procurement needs
The software had dramatically enhanced our company's experience with spending and procurement. It has helped us with managing our sales, purchase orders, inventories and tools through a clean interface. The procurement team has been able to work together on invoices and PO's more seamlessly owing its cloud compatibility and safe online storage. We are now able to create budgets for various tasks and use Spendwise to track our overall spending. Overall experience has indeed been wonderful, highly recommended for procurement teams in multiple sectors.
Pros
Spendwise is a comprehensive tool to assess our company expenditure. It offers a user-friendly interface , one that helps us save on time and eliminate excess administrative costs. We are able to manage our invoices, purchase orders, bills and expenses in a streamlined manner. A great feature of this software is that it is possible to assign roles to users, and provide access to certain transactions, thereby ensuring that the right person can examine authorized features only.
Cons
Sometimes when there is a software update, it becomes challenging to navigate through the new changes. With a lack of manuals or training, the updates can take time getting used to.
Reasons for Switching to Spendwise
Powerful capabilities of new software and streamlined interface.

Now I Know
Wish we would have purchased this system earlier. This is our first budget cycle when we have full visibility into all of our costs plus we are now able to manage inventory and fulfilment in one system. We love it if you couldn't tell!! :)
Pros
This software has solved the age old issue of knowing what everyone is spending throughout the organization. We connect all the procurement pieces in one system from purchase requisition through final invoice payment and it's cut our time to process payment by over 50%!
Cons
None really. It connects to QuickBooks and the training to get everyone using the system was minimal.
Reasons for Choosing Spendwise
Spendwise pulled everything together and worked with our existing systems and it's ability to support our allocation tables to help manage our multiple grants made it an easy choice. We tried another provider briefly but they didn't tie departments and the general ledger together in the budget area.
Reasons for Switching to Spendwise
We needed the ability to link the Department and the GL Account in the budget area which Bellwether didn't support.

basic needs
organization and communication was key when communicating with my co-workers on multiple projects. This helped us keep all of our orders in one location so that if one of us was not present that the others would know what had been ordered.
Pros
It allowed us to keep vendors saved for future use. We were able to reference different orders to the PO numbers. It allowed us to continue to reference old PO's to see what transaction happened that had taken place before our hire.
Cons
The search engine was very specific. If we were looking for drawstring bags and it was entered in as draw string bags the search field wouldn't find it. I wish that a bit more information about the order would appear in the list screen. We would place multiple orders in a day from the same vendor. If we were searching for a particular item but the search feature didn't pull it up we would have to search through the many PO's from that particular vendor click in and closing out each one until we find the right one. Where if there was a column that showed the notes or possibly 1 line item in the PO that would help find things quicker.

Must have to track inventory
Pros
Great too to control inventory and sales. You are able to track your inventory from your phone and you can use key words to search PO's. This tool is a great way to be more organized and get rid of paper purchase orders and have everything electronically.
Cons
It would be very helpfully to be able to print multiple purchase orders at once.

This software is the best for making quick and easy purchase orders
Its nice to be able to reference each PO just by looking it up in the search box by the PO number
Pros
Office wise is able to save product titles and price to quickly fill out the po and send it out. I like that it is fast and easy to use. You are even able to email right from the PO.
Cons
I don't like that there is a new area that has to be set of what folder you would like to have it in after it mailed out. That slows down the process.

Response from Officewise
Replied December 2017
Thank you for your review Caleb! Not sure what you mean by setting folder you would like to have PO in after it is mailed out. If you are referring to approval folders (i.e. Inbox, Not-submitted, Rejected, Pending) the system should assign automatically depending on the approval status of the PO. I will follow-up with you to make sure I understand and help resolve.

Pros
Very nice program for handling many functions within your organization. Keeps track of inventory, allows you to create invoices, reports, banking, etc. Endless things to help keep your business organized and efficient.
Cons
It may not be as great as microsoft office or other apps because it tends to charge a higher monthly fee. But you could weigh your options versus the price to other software.

Spendwise has helped with non-necessary expenses.
Pros
We used to manage office expenses in a very casual and non-itemized way. After implementing expenses into Spendwise we were able to see what subscriptions we were paying for, how costly our internet service had gotten over the years, and where we need to adjust budgets for business luncheons.
Cons
It would be nice if SpendWise offered more to their basic account offering as well as integrate a mobile app for when you are leisurely checking in on spending on the go.

Helpful Tool for Business Budgeting
Our agency is still new to using Spendwise but with more training and time I feel like this is going to be an amazing addition to our finaning needs.
Pros
Spendwise is a innovatie product that has the potential to resolve multiple budget and spending barriers for both large and small businesses.
Cons
Users could benefit from additional training and customer service assistance to help with some of the more complex features.

Good software that we don't utilize enough!
My company mainly uses your software as a PO creation tool. I know that you have a lot of reporting and accounting tools and other tools that we don't use that we definitely could/should. The software works well for us to simply create POs with easy fill-in-the blanks for saved company names and information so multiple people can use it as an address book, essentially. We then have a record that shows all POs we've placed over time as well, across multiple users. What we don't use very well is the accounting tools - we don't really categorize or use the reports at all for accounting purposes. We have a whole accounting team who keeps track of that type of thing in Quickbooks. Our Operations team is who uses your software for the most part for ease of creating POs and also record keeping for basic PO information. Giving you 4 stars across the board for the product - it seems pretty user friendly in general. Maybe not enough tutorial type information, that could be helpful, but I haven't really gone looking for it. Giving you 5 starts for customer service because you were very responsive when I did have a question.
Pros
Pretty straightforward and clean
Cons
Could use more tutorials

Response from Officewise
Replied September 2016
Thank you for your feedback Anna! We would love for you guys to use Officewise for all of your accounting needs and think that you would like it much better than QuickBooks but we might be a little bias:). That said we have many customers who use our system along with QuickBooks like you do which is just fine too. I agree with your point about having more tutorials and other support tools, we are currently working on these things and will make them available within the next few months.

Excellent, user-friendly software!
Officewise offers more functionality than I expected considering it's such an affordable price. The interface is simple and very user-intuitive. My entire office is able to input data and keep things organized and up to date. We use the purchase order feature the most. The product is consistent, so I have never had any error messages or glitches like I do so often with another, more expensive software we use in-house. My favorite thing about Officewise is the ability to cross categorize my searches. The only thing I'd like to see in the future, is being able to pull up data that has any part of what I enter in the search bar, rather than having to have exact searches. Thanks for offering such a great product!
Pros
The simple design and ability to use a variety of categories to search through data.
Cons
I preferred the lighter color scheme Officewise had before the most recent design update. I also need to be able to type in a partial purchase order number in the search section and have any purchase order with that info pull up in my search.

Able to work with the software and have a positive experience when using it.
The ability to track purchases and determine total dollars spent by vendor.
Pros
The ease in the use of the software. Several fields can be populated by typing the first letters of a vendor's name. The item numbers also can be populated with the first few letters on the company's item numbers.
Cons
There was an update to the software a few months ago. There was no training on the changes to the software. It was difficult to determine where items needed to go. It took sometime to figure this out.

The software was recently changed. I believe the initial software used was much more user-friendly.
We now have a paperless process in executing POs. The process is now more efficient, we maintain a history on our purchases and the time saved is better served on other projects.
Pros
The software allows a paperless and more efficient process in ordering items. The approval hierarchy is great.
Cons
Some changes to the website adds some difficulty in maneuvering through to find other pages. Example, I had to edit the authorization of a new hire and it took me a while to find where that section was moved to.

Response from Officewise

Thank you for your feedback. As mentioned we did make some changes to the user interface of our system a few months ago which we believe will make it better going forward. We understand and appreciate that it can take some time for existing users to get use to the changes and apologize for any inconvenience. We are not planning to make any other significant changes to the user interface and hope that the new help center we launched along with the changes makes it easier to adapt to the new user interface.

Generally good
Pros
The software provides inventory control, sales, and purchasing tools all in one easy to use application that is not overly priced.
Cons
The inability to modify inventory type (inventory vs non-inventory) after creation. It would be a major improvement to allow you to change the type instead of having to create a new item.

Response from Officewise
Replied October 2017
Thank you for your feedback Lisa. I understand your point about allowing users to modify type so that you don't have to create a new item if you want to change. The tricky part is what to do with past transactions since they would have been handled in the system based on type when they were recorded. We think it is important to be consistent with how different types of transactions are handled in the system but also feel it is important to maintain the integrity of historical data. That said we are always open to new ideas on how we can improve the system and I will follow-up with you directly to further discuss.

Pros

Pros

Quick and Easy, ideal for small companies.
Organized our procurement process in a beneficial and productive way.
Pros
This software took our company from a convoluted excel based system to an organized and easy to use software platform that we love.
Cons
This software lacks a few features that would be helpful but overall not critical. Being able to track lead times, order numbers, and being able to pull that list by project would be very helpful. The software would also benefit from being able to communicate with other software systems, like quickbooks.

Response from Officewise

Thank you for your feedback Clint. The system does include order numbers and tags which are often used for project spend tracking and I have some ideas on how you can use due dates and other features to track lead times.

OfficeWise is easy to work with and does the basics of what we need.
Pros
The software is easy to use, understand and to show others how to use. The ability to email POs with terms attached makes ordering very simple.
Cons
Some of the reporting is limited. It would be nice to generate a report that provides invoices by sales rep. Also, a report showing remaining open balance on a sales order. Some of the parameters in setting users up is limiting. I have a need for letting people view all sales orders but not be able to change them.

Response from Officewise
Replied October 2017
Thank you for your feedback Charles. We do have a report for sales orders by sales rep but currently not one for invoices by sales rep as you point out. I think that adding this report is certainly worth considering and will discuss internally to see what we can do. As for user access parameters we are planning to provide more options like what you describe within the next few months.

huge improvement over our previous manual system
better order efficiency
Pros
1) approval process is now instantaneous. Previous manual system could take days. 2) I like the ability to search part numbers for repeat orders by part name or supplier.
Cons
does not provide system to maintain consistent part name / number so each user conforms to common system - which leads to duplicates

Response from Officewise
Replied September 2017
Thank you for your feedback Scott. To reduce the risk of duplication the system does prevent users from creating new items that have the same Item ID as an existing item but we understand sometimes that is not enough to prevent duplication. To further reduce risk and maintain consistency in part name/number we recommend limiting which users can add new parts through roles so that only certain authorized users can add new items. I will follow-up with you directly to show you how this can be done.

Items should be able to be changed like deleting that aren't being used and being able to change non invorty to invorty item

Not being able to delete items that were used or Duplicates

Response from Officewise

Thank you for your feedback Gary. If an item is not used in any transactions you should be able to delete and if it is used in a transaction you can make it inactive so it no longer shows up in dropdowns etc. Allowing users the ability to change items from non-inventory is something we have considered in the past and will revisit based on feedback from you and others. I agree we need a mobile app and we have plans for this. I like your idea about different pricing on items and will follow-up with you to further discuss.

Overall, Officewise is easy to use and a helps keep our purchase orders organized for 23 locations!
Pros
The software is very user-friendly. Easy keyword searches on past purchase orders. You can copy previous purchase orders and resubmit with minor changes, so it makes PO entry quick. You can give everyone in a department access to see past PO's of other
Cons
We have had trouble with the approval process. You can select multiple approvers in the PO, but rather than going to the next approver, our POs will go back to the original person submitting the PO each time an approver approves.

The ease of creating purchase and sales orders. Also like tracking the sales orders/purchase orders and to get a history.

Initial set up and daily use is very easy.
Pros
I was asked to start the purchasing department for our pipeline company, after trying 10/12 Purchase Order systems, I tried Officewise, unlike the other more expensive systems with little or no U.S. based customer service, they walked me through the initial startup. With multiple ways to pull reports, my asset manager, accounting department and sales team can find exact cost in numerous ways, very quickly. I cannot thank service agent enough for all the help he gave me, the best advise I received was to start playing with the reports and then set up the Tags, Groups, Etc., in this way you can pinpoint how you want to pull your report.
Cons
The void button still gives me nightmares, do not ever void a PO, anything can be corrected except this.

It's easy to find what you need and to submit POs.
it's an easy way to keep track of POs and I can go back and research or find POs and re-print or mark as received.
Pros
the ease of use and the ability to copy POs. I love that I can copy POs that I make to the same vendor and though I need to edit it, it is much easier than starting a new PO.
Cons
that if I am in my inbox, I have to go to 2 screens in order to access POs, I wish I was able to access POs on the sidebar, but I can only get to other boxes in my inbox (submitted, rejected, pending, etc)

Thank you for your feedback Daphne! I see what you are saying about 2 clicks to get from your inbox to list of POs and will discuss internally to see what we can do about making it one click.

It has changed the way our company handles purchasing
Pros
Simple interface and keeps track of everything. The line item memos are great for justifying purchases. New Items can be created on the fly.
Cons
A large amount of our ordering is random one off items from places like amazon or eBay, I would like better support for these types of purchases. It would be great if we could put in tracking numbers to know when orders will come in.

Response from Officewise
Replied December 2017
Thank you for your feedback! Agree we can improve on how our system works with other systems and will share your comments with the development team. For tracking numbers we recommend using the History & Notes feature where you can post a note with a link to tracking information. Hope this helps.

Pros
Search function is great to find other users PO's. The interface is very well done and easy to find what you need.
Cons
Certain restrictions at specif user levels are not customizable. The approval process could be improved on.

Great Service
We've been very happy with Officewise! We use it every day to create Purchase Orders and cross reference items we've ordered for deliveries ect. Definitely very easy to use and extremely helpful!
Pros
The fact that we can search key words for previous POs that have been created.
Cons
Not much that I don't like! Once in a while it won't let me delete the top row on purchase orders when I add one too many lines, but that isn't really any issue.

I was new to Officewise and had very little training. In no time I was up and running!
I can track the expense and purchases for each location
Pros
Very easy to use and negotiate your way around the software. I also like being able to customize the dashboard.
Cons
You can not print a detailed PO from your dashboard once it is approved. You have to go to Home then Purchase Orders, search for the PO then print them. Wish there was a quicker way to do this.

Response from Officewise
Replied December 2017
Thank you for your feedback Susan! Once a PO is approved you should be able to click on a link in the approval notification that will take you directly to the approved PO where you can print it. From the list of POs you can also set filters to see only those purchase orders where you are the requisitioner which may make it easier to find POs. I will follow-up with you to further discuss these solutions and how we can improve.

We Love Love Love OfficeWise. We mostly use it to keep track of orders. As a busy Design Firm we need all the help we can get keeping track of furniture orders, cabinets, tile and everything we order for a project. The report system allows us to to do a print out and mark it with expected ship dates and helps us to track what is on order for several projects at once. Best money we ever spent!
Pros
Similar to quickbooks, so if you use quickbooks you can automatically use this easily.

Pros

Cons
There are two lines for entering expenses which seems redundant. It would be nice to only have one line for each expense

Response from Officewise
Replied July 2017
Thank you for your review! There should only be one line for entering expenses followed by optional accounting detail fields below which you can hide if you want.

Not having to use a hard-copy system.
Pros
I can attach receipts, packing slips, RFQs, etc. directly to the Purchase Order and not have to worry about lost documents. All the information is there for anyone that needs immediate access without hassle.
Cons
The search features could use a little improvement. It would be nice to be able to search on just a wildcard but does not.

Love Officewise
Pros
Website is very easy to use and self explanatory. You can easily save POs, convert to PDF, search for past POs. The latest update has also added quite a few new and great features.
Cons
The only Con or feature I wish could be added is a list of projects so that you can allocate which PO belongs to which project.

Response from Officewise
Replied May 2017
Thank you for your review. For project tracking we recommend using the "Tag" field on the purchase order. You can then run purchase order tag reports to see which PO belongs to which project. I will follow-up with you directly to show how this can be done.

The most affordable, feature-rich option out there!
Officewise has helped us take control of our spending which has helped increase profit within the first few months!
Pros
Easy to learn and use, the features we need are built-in and we didn't have to do a lot of customization!
Cons
We still need to learn how to integrate the software with some of our accounting systems - we feel that training would help. Hopefully, we are able to find some help with this. I'm not sure we have been able to reach a live human yet - but maybe we need to try a littler harder.

What a great website. It makes business easy and painfully easy to keep track of . Thank you. Enjoy the ability to send quotes and invoices through email and then being told when the email is opened and viewed.

the mobile website version is not easy to use, the screens are hard to view and the lettering and typing of new work are difficult to see and use.

track POs with ease
we didn't have a customizable PO system before officewise
Pros
the filter and sort fields make it easy to find any Purchase Order quickly. The ability to email a PO straight to the vendor cuts down on repetitive actions!
Cons
When I close a PO I would like the screen to refresh to the main PO list instead of having to close out of the closed PO screen.

Response from Officewise
Replied December 2017
Thank you for your feedback. To end up on the main PO list page after closing a purchase order we recommend closing the purchase order from the list page which you can do by checking the box next to the purchase order, then click on the More button at the top of the list, then click on Close option. This feature also allows you to close multiple purchase orders at a time. Hope this helps.

Officewise is great and easy to use but the limitations in the description box is a problem.
You benefit from having one central location to put in all the orders you need to purchase for the office, as well as, let administration know what id going on event wise.
Pros
I like the efficiency of it in the office setting. It is nice to be able to have a place to submit everything you need and it can be sent to the person who needs to purchase the orders. I like how it sends emails notifying you when something has been sent to you or approved.
Cons
The description box does not allow enough lines to type and you cannot add the same approver more than once, which is a little inconvenient in some circumstances.

Response from Officewise
Replied December 2017
Thank you for your feedback Lindzee! The description field has a 900 character limit which we hope meets your needs most of the time. In cases where the description exceeds the character limit we usually recommend attaching a file with the description to the purchase order and referencing the file in the description field of the purchase order. I will follow-up with you directly to see if this solution could work for you and discuss other alternatives.

The fact that it is very user friendly and supports what we need to capture purchasing and approvals for those purchases. Having the ability to download actual copies of the invoice is a plus, because it allows the approver to make a conscious decision in making an approval.

Easy to use.
Overall my experience with Officewise has been good. If I can figure out how to use something, anyone can. The only difficulty I've had is when I access my account via my "smartphone".
Pros
Ease of use. I have no secretarial, business, or accounting background and I was able to figure out how to use this program.
Cons
Not mobile friendly. At least with my phone. May be on my end and not program's.
