    Basware
    The system it self and its functionality is great. Most screens and work flows are easy to understand and use without any training. Its usually obvious what the next step is for the user, e.g adding coding, review etc. The information shown to the user is also built in a good way and the overall "feel" of the system is among best in market. Some of the admin parts require Basware AP Automation help, even though you technically can do it yourself as admin, the documentation available is not enough to help you through it.

    Zycus
    Zycus Procure to Pay Suite is convenient in cases of organisations that look for a streamline approach and would prefer having all the information at once place. This is great when it comes to audits as the information is very clearly available on when and who did what. However, this relies greatly on information to be fed from external sources. Dependency on the vendor increases, complex for small businesses. Even after all the effort the information has to manually entered or entered through an interim application in SAP for those businessess that would like to have their data maintained in SAP. Voice of customer is often not taken in to consideration.

    Cons
    Basware
    • There needs to be an easier way to view past invoices as the current method requires that you select from the pull-down menu each and every time
    • Instructions for the more commonly used features should be available within the program itself rather than having to search the online help index in order to find this information (bubble pop ups would be nice)
    • More functionality should be build into the invoice processing system (you should be able to forward via email, include screenshots, etc)

    We will continue using product and continue renewing as it is widely used product and it has been well adapted by users in our organization. The product is expensive but we will use it. Hopefully the product bugs will be fixed in future and they will provide more HA architecture feather for Basware.

    Usability
    Basware
    The GUI and workflows are easy to understand. It makes sense where the "buttons" and menus are located. Design is overall getting improvements constantly as well, so there is updates coming all the time. System is quick, few bugs and errors that cause issues. Up time and accessibility is on a very good level.

    Basware was not my selection as I was not with the company at the time. It was easy to learn and we have maintained a good working relationship with Basware. It is a very good way to process the workflow of invoices from start to finish

    Zycus Procure to Pay Suite is a much more advanced P2P suite as compared to the other applications. It is less complex, easier to streamline and customize, is faster and more latest as compared to the current suites that we earlier used. It has everything at one place which reduces the amount of effort that goes behind using multiple applications and the cost we spend on them
