    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.
    Overall I am satisfied with using Basware at work and hopefully I will enjoy working with it for a long time.
    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.
    Cons
    What I dislike about this software that sometimes I run into some unexpected errors and have to close and open Basware again.
    Almost no customization or advanced functionality. Reports often lack critical details that are readily available in other programs.
    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.

    Great tool for processing invoices

    Reviewed 3 years ago

    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.

    Basware use for approving invoices

    Reviewed 4 years ago

    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.

    Basware is a very good Invoice Processing tool, but could be better

    Reviewed 2 years ago

    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

    Reviewed 3 years ago

    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.

    Vendor response

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