ABBYY FineReader vs Hubdoc

Likelihood to Recommend

[ABBYY FineReader is well suited] to edit advanced documents that contain text, images, tables, columns among others, I used it when I have a large text file and they ask me to go in editable file type like docx, Another common use is when in documents there is personal or sensitive information that should not be public knowledge and you want to cure or erase this information without prejudice to the understanding of the background of the document.

For those that use Xero and would like to digitise their invoices, along with direct supplier feeds, very fast data extraction and auto-archiving it can really streamline your bookkeeping function in any business. We also integrated their scanner functionality into a custom mobile app that fed straight into the Hubdoc system with document notes via metadata tags.

Cons

A versioning system of the work done or the editions that have been saved in the files, or a tracking of changes between one version and another would be fabulous
An improvement that would be asked would be as previews or suggestions of the type of file that could be beneficial to use in an edition
The redesign of the panels is that of the analyzed document, the edition and the changes in my opinion need a resizing to have a better view of the work

Hubdoc 5.8

Based on 4 answers

At the time we implemented Hubdoc (more than 2 years ago) it was quite cutting edge and did have strong advances from the competition plus its pricing was definitely more competitive (flat rate vs price per data extraction model). However, currently the competition has caught up and now many of Hubdoc's core features are being built into online accounting software natively.

Alternatives Considered

Although both have functionalities that they share, in ABBYY FineReader they are better implemented, they have a better performance, in addition to being a more intuitive and simple user that makes their learning curve relatively simple, it is as if the options I need are always available. the hand and not within complicated menus or overloaded interfaces

I had been using Bill.com for paying bills, for storing invoices and receipts, and for recording credit card payments. We did this to digitize all receipts for a business and get the accounting done at the same time. But Bill.com has a number of quirks, including a long sync time and not being able to handle returns/credits on a credit card. It was also hard looking at a general ledger when everything was a Bill.com clearing journal entry (no vendors names).

Enter Hubdoc about a year ago for me. Shazam! I can code receipts and bills as expenses synced directly to QBO with the image attached. Syncs in seconds. I still use Bill.com for invoices that need to be paid with management approval. But for credit cards, Hubdoc is the answer. Hubdoc does sync with Bill.com for invoice that need to be paid.
