Top Rated EleVia Electronic Invoicing Alternatives
1. It requires more involvement for the PM. At our firm, in the past, the Project Accountant drove the billing meetings. Now the PMs are driving.
2. The PMs love all the project detail that is at their finger tips.
3. E.I. is moving the whole process along faster.
4. The PAs love the packaging.
5. PAs love that they can add documents such as Purchase Orders to packaging that shows up every month that they are required to give to the client.
6. The ease of reviewing Expenses and Consultant invoices from PAT and Chrome River that are processed in Vision.
7. PAs love the ability to save the % complete values back to Vision and no longer have to manually add these items to Vision. Big time saver. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
1. That EleVia doesn't have enough consultants to get the work done in a timely manner.
2. Unable to load documents easily into the EI tab in project info center, verses having to load them thru E.I.
3. The inability to hide the Fee Method / Scheduled Billing inside % Complete.
4. Need a clear button in PM review of % Complete.
5. Unable to add percent complete and hit the enter key to advance forward, need to use the tab key. Most naturally hit the enter key.
6. Loading time. If you could spend up the time it takes for things to load.
7. If you can come up with a way to access prior unbilled detail and invoices more easily. Hen pecking thru the files is not intuitive for PMs, especially if there has been several draft runs.
8. Create better user docs or create videos that better explains the configuration section. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Ease of use and the ability for our PMs and OMs to see all the invoices they need to view and approve in one grid. It is easy, efficient and a great tool for getting invoice processing and review/approvals done much faster than we could before we implemented EI. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There is one comments field that is dynamic and opens very wide in the program grid, but they are working on that. And currently it runs on Internet Explorer, which they need to update. They are aware of the need to move it into being more browser agnostic. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The Project Grid allows PM's and Billers to know at a glance where all projects are at in the process to aid in a quick and effient review by PM's. Billers can easily see when PM's have finished their review and can finalize invoices with ease. Working with EleVia is easy and they are always there to support you as updates or enhancements are needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I honestly have no compaints about EleVia and Electronic Invoicing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
We no longer have project folder exchanging going on, which has reduced the possibility of misplacing project folders! Everything is now visible electronically for everyone, and reviewing and approving client invoices are now much easier and more efficient. Our Billing Staff can see which invoices remain outstanding at a glance instead of having to chase down upper management to get them completed. This software has allowed us to reduce our AR DOS by 15-18 days in just over 4-5 months, which has had a tremendous effect on cash flow! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The e-mail reminder is a great feature, however, we are still navigating the best way to utilize it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Being able to track the stages of each invoice and using the tools for creating the invoice package, which can be emailed directly from the system to clients. I also like the automated email notifications that prompt each user they have an action to take. I also appreciate all the ways to filter the page, download, and customize for your own use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There isn't a good way for the reviewer and approver to move the invoice to and from each other if needed. The flow is one way and not back and forth, which makes sense but there are times when the approver wants the reviewer to make a change and it needs to flow through the biller and then back out again. Also, finalizing the invoice is still done outside of the module and everything is not all in one place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
We were able to customize the columns, stages, workflows. It allowed us to fit the software to our ideal process rather than the other way around. Additionally, the software consolidates all of the necessary information in one place rather than having to review several different reports during the billing process. We also love the Final Packaging capabilities as it makes it easy to adjust what information a client receives at the click of a button. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I wish that there were more options for what PDFs are viewable within the product. It would also be helpful if the Create Email were able to email more than one contact; while we can edit the email it requires us to track who invoices go to in a spreadsheet.

We are able to get Invoicing our to our clients faster. As the operations Accounting Manager I am able to see what stage invoices are in. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It is very slow to load information to view.
Small quirky items happen that are hard to resolve. Example: Some of our Final Invoices are going to the Draft folder. it is time consuming to reach out and get resolution.
I wish there was a way to have a delete previous version if you create a new package for the invoice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
We like being able to see the Unbilled Detail report and the being able to configure the multiple tiers of reviewers and approvers for our Billing process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
We would like to send out the first draft to multiple people or a group of people instead of only one person. We would also like to have more control at the task leve of the invoices so that we could send parts of the invoice based on task to individuals that are in charge of the org assigned to that task.

The ability to send invoices to Project Managers electronically very quickly and easily. It has been such a time saver for him. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The latest update with EI we have just installed has solved the issue of the Project Managers ability to see the amount being actually billed for the month after the percentage was changed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Electronic Invoiving helps keep everything organized and on track. The result of migrating from our old paper based system to EI has resulted in time savings, paper savings, and most importantly, a reduction in WIP days. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There isn't much to dislike about Electronic Invoicing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Easy to share with PM's or Principals for invoice review. Most items can be found in one place, it is nice to be able to look back at older invocing. Links work great to see what is currently or previously billed or tagged to a Project Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Product does not always interact correctly with Deltek. Projects that are a percentage of construction billing parameters are very difficult to update. I have to keep checking for invoice approval updates, I do not get a progress report. It has been very hard to reach support during the Pandemic. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
