"Very good tool with a lot of possibilities which sometimes makes things more difficult :)"
4/5
What do you like best about Basware?

I like Basware because this tool is really making my work easier. I like the home page, that all tasks are visibile and once it is all done there is a palm trees view and a coffee icon. I like option "Advanced search" it is really helpful in my daily work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Basware?

Sometimes it works really slowly. It can interfere with the work and it is a little annoying. I also don't like that system log me out after a few minutes and when I going back I need to log in once again. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good system but not user friendly"
3/5
What do you like best about Basware?

It is a great system for managing, viewing spend and compiling everything into one place. The system Procure2Pay is a great idea. I have never used a competitor to be able to compare though also. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Basware?

It is not very user-friendly and the user experience is not that great for the end user. I find that raising purchase requisitions is glitchy and could use improvement. We also find it limited as we've built a purchase request system that feeds into Basware to overcome these challenges. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Rob Wilson of Basware

"The real user friendly tool for a full-ended purchase to pay-process"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Basware?

As a Controller you like spend less time educating managers in Purchase to Pay systems as much as possible. Basware truly make the user experience easy for manager, minimizing my time spent on educating them so I can focus on more advanced tasks.

However Basware also supply me with the tools needed for analysis, detailed views and full ended Purchase to Pay control. I've worked with several invoice systems and I truly believe this is the best one ever used. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Basware?

Perhaps its a internal issue and not a Basware issue. But I do find the purchasing part difficult to work with sometimes. But I believe that is a internal issue more than a systematical issue.

Other then that I really find no downsides with Basware. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Rob Wilson of Basware

Thank you for your thoughtful review. We're delighted to hear that Basware has empowered you to focus on advanced tasks by simplifying the educational process for managers. The user experience is a cornerstone of our platform, and we're pleased that you find our tools suitable for both managerial and analytical needs.

We're also glad that Basware is resolving the integration challenge you faced with multiple systems. Having everything in one place not only streamlines the procurement-to-pay process but also fosters ease of use, irrespective of one's previous experience with invoice systems.

Your feedback on the purchasing part being somewhat difficult is noted, and while it may be an internal issue, we’re always keen on enhancing every aspect of our platform.

We encourage you to stay engaged and share any more insights you might have.

"Efficient software for processing invoices, though can get tricky with many organisational users"
3/5
What do you like best about Basware?

Shows me only what I need to see, with minimal distractions, quick process to raise POs and review invoices and that our finance team are able to check on our dashboards in case there is an issue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Basware?

I can't look up other POs raised by other members of my team - a 'work group' function could fix this. Not everyone in my organisation is a reviewer, so it can become confusing knowing who to forward to. Half the time the invoices cannot be auto coded so I have to manually do it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Rob Wilson of Basware

Thank you for sharing your experience with Basware and providing detailed feedback. Your observations, particularly on the 'work group' function and the challenges with auto-coding, are valuable. We will share these insights with our product management team as we continually aim to improve the user experience and better serve your needs.

The process for approving invoices is easy to complete. Being able to search using different information to find invoices makes it easy to track down what you need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Basware?

how quickly it times out. I don't stay in one program all day so when this one is open it ends up timing out during the time it takes me research information regarding the invoice the program has already timed out. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Basware stinks."
0/5
What do you like best about Basware?

The only thing helpful is it keeps all the invoices in one place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Basware?

I have no access to any reports. The smart AI never works for me. It reads the price incorrectly, and assigns it to the wrong vendor. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Rob Wilson of Basware

Hi Diego,

While we appreciate you taking the time to submit your feedback we are disappointed to hear you have had such a negative experience.

Addressing your main challenges with our solution:

Access to reports - This is set by the admin so we would recommend contacting the solution owner to discuss any issues you may be having and to see if this can be resolved.

AI, smart coding generating incorrect pricing and vendor selection - This should not be occurring so if this is an issue that is repeating itself please raise a ticket with our support team to resolve.

Once again please accept my apologies for your negative experience. If you would like to further discuss please dont hestitate to contact me directly.

Kind regards,

Rob

"user friendly and multitasking"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Basware?

the user friendly design and easy accesibility, the posibility of providing different access view dependng on the job role of the user Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Basware?

the fact that an user who have limited acces cannot see the invoices linked to the PO they raised (only if the invoice requires their review) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Rob Wilson of Basware

Thank you for highlighting Basware's user-friendly design and role-based accessibility in your G2 review. Your feedback on limitations for users with restricted access is invaluable, this is most likely due to restrictions set at the admin level, but we will look further into this.

"End users get confused"
3/5
What do you like best about Basware?

I'd say the layout looks nice, it is easy to check the flow of the documents, what comes from where. The steps of the purchasing process are laid out clean and simple. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Basware?

It overcomplicates some things. It does not anticipate pricing differences and does not support dealing with such in a user-friendly manner. It does not work well with Oracle Finance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Rob Wilson of Basware
