Great tool for processing invoices
Overall experience is very good. This app is a great improvement in processing payable invoices in company. Process is smoother, easier and faster. Also, Basware works great as an audit evidence.
Pros
Basware is basically a tool which enables to process payable invoices. It allows you to upload them, input accounting string, and transfer to your ERP system. It works very well with Oracle Finance which is a great advantage. Processing invoices is relatively easy, requires 4-eye principle to be met. It allows you to add attachments, notes and perform basically whole communication regarding the invoice in one application without using neither e-mail, nor external communicator. Overall experience with this application is really great.
Cons
Purchase order processing is not the best so if you have a lot of it in your company, you may need to consider some other app. It works slow and is not intuitive.

Easy to use
Pros
Very good tech support. The will listen to ideas to up grade the software to suit your needs
Cons
I have made this suggestion many times. They need to link the work order request number to the actual work order. Same as when you create a P.O. from a request into an actual P.O.

Basware is a very good Invoice Processing tool, but could be better
Overall Basware is a very good invoice processing tool, it can make your work more efficient and can bring you many solutions. It is highly user friendly and will help you with most of the tasks. However, I do believe that it can have some improvements.
Pros
I like the fact that I can send invoices for automatic processing, so they can be matched to their PO numbers. The invoice scanning feature is quite useful for that. Also, the data extraction has probably all the items that you will need to run your in-company reports.
Cons
Vendor data changes usually take 24 hours to show in the system. There can not be two sessions open, so you can only process one invoice at a time. The system can be sometimes quite slow.

My daily accounting software that I can recommend
Overall I am satisfied with using Basware at work and hopefully I will enjoy working with it for a long time.
Pros
I am a Basware superuser in my company so I am very familiar with this software (P2P). It is easy to use and most importantly, it is possible to code invoices very fast and effective. My favourite feature is „invoice history” where I can view the entire history of an invoice and any potential errors that have occured.
Cons
What I dislike about this software that sometimes I run into some unexpected errors and have to close and open Basware again.

Response from Basware
Thank you for taking time to review the Basware P2P software.

ProcureIT review
Pros
The product is continuously improved with each update and the support from Verian is great. They have the resources and expertise of a large company, with the accessability of a much smaller organization.
Cons
While there is a lot of documentation with each upgrade or system improvement, it is sometimes overwhelming. A more simplistic explanation or guide would at times be helpful.

Accepting expense invoices
Works well as you get a direct link to the invoices you are supposed to handle.
Pros
Helps our finance department to be effective with getting the purchase invoices accepted. Does the job for line managers too.
Cons
The software design thinks about the professional accountant but not the line manager accepting invoices. Simpler user interface for non-admin user would be welcome.

One stop shop for your services
It allows our services to be seen by companies that access and provide public services to others.
Pros
We deliver services to some government organisations service users and needed to use this software to load our catalogue of offerings to do so. after uploading on the software we found that other companies/organisations can also book our service through this system also and that is almost a centralised system for commissioning to deliver public services. It made it easy to arrange our services in a central system that can be accessed by all who would want to book us.
Cons
There are a lot of loopholes to get registered and it feels like it needs updating/remodelling in the way it looks and feels.

Basware for Invoice Approvals
Overall, I recommend Basware as an effective product for managing and tracking invoices in your company. It is a user friendly design and has helped us locate some very archaic but necessary documentation necessary for audits.
Pros
Basware has a nice 'fail-safe' design set up to ensure you remain timely with approving/processing invoices. If I miss my email notification that advises I have invoices to review/approve, it will send the notification to someone else on my team to review and approve. This is nice when I am on vacation or off work. In addition, if the back up person on the team is out, it alerts the administrator on our finance team who will reach out to our team to ensure it receives review/approval so we can remain timely with invoices.
Cons
The search feature has helped whenever I am under a FCC audit to retrieve invoices for our recruiting efforts. It would be nice if the search feature was expanded more to include more ways to search invoices to get specific ones.

Easy to Use and Great UI
Pros
The dashboard is very helpful and eye catching. Love the way the software shows all the contents and very easy to find what you required.
Cons
Some contents in the graphs and reports are not required. May be these contents should be removed or the customer should have authorization to customize these themselves.

Basware use for approving invoices
For my approval process experience, Basware is efficient and has an extremely easy learning curve. Onboarding new users is not a hassle at all.
Pros
Basware makes the review and approval of invoices convenient, easy and speedy. All invoices are kept in one spot which makes it easily streamlined and we are able to route them for approval person to person automatically.
Cons
Rejecting an invoice can cause confusion within the back end. When an invoice needs to be rejected, one of our Basware admins is notified and then must remove the invoice from the workflow.

We love Verian!
We have used an older version of the Verian - Purchase Manager module for years and are now evaluating the latest version for full implementation across multiple geographic locations. Their staff provides excellent customer service and are truly experts on the products they provide. The biggest gains in using this product are: a fantastic, simple, user interface; flexible workflow for complex approval routing; ability to integrate with other legacy systems and centralize data capture and reporting. If you are on the fence, I would highly recommend that you consider Verian.

Easy to Use but light on functionality
Pros
Very easy to use and very easy to teach other employees how to use. Generally accurate and doesn't make you jump screen to screen like other invoicing programs
Cons
Almost no customization or advanced functionality. Reports often lack critical details that are readily available in other programs. We stopped using this software in short order.
