Likelihood to Recommend I would definitely recommend using Basware Purchase to Pay in your organization, it handles high amounts of invoices efficiently and you can perform your work with ease. I am acting as a Basware superuser in my team so I know this software thoroughly and it rarely gives any issues, even errors are described in a clear way so the user knows what needs to be resolved/what is missing.
Read full review I work with several businesses and have attempted to bring ScaleFactor into multiple. Thus far the business status/environment has been suitable for ScaleFactor only once, but I'll continue to look for more. ScaleFactor is great when a company has matured beyond the owner making all accounting and banking entries. As soon as multiple systems are needed, it's likely a decent time to call ScaleFactor. I'm confident my operations could run through ScaleFactor for a long time as the next step for us would be something akin to NetSuite or some other more rigid enterprise solution. Additionally, our business has a geographically displaced work force, typically working from home. Having access to all systems via the cloud has been great. No longer do we have to pass a specific computer back and forth for a physical computer software license. It's enabled maximum work flow convenience.
Read full review Pros It's easy to process invoices in a very short amount of time due to the fact that you can save your frequently used fields as favorites The system is extremely easy to use as there are only a few steps required for complete processing of invoices The ability to create and save templates of commonly used coding makes coding of invoices is fast and easy Often times no interaction is even needed for invoice processing as received items and POs will match up on the back end with no intervention Read full review ScaleFactor has been a great resource for me as I got my business off the ground. They have allowed me to focus on marketing and strategy while they handle my Quickbooks and other accounting needs. Great accounting and finance solutions that don't require you to hire an in-house staff Presenting data clearly. Read full review Cons Once you cancel the document in "cancellation queue" it cannot be restored or viewed. Sometimes but relatively rarely the program opens slowly. In rare instances the program freezes and needs to be restarted. Read full review Could connect with All saving accounts i.e. Building society saving aswell as major banks. When a connected bank or savings account hasn't been used for a month or 2 it could show a 0 transaction to keep it updated rather then saying "last updated 3 months ago" Read full review Likelihood to Renew 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.

Read full review Alternatives Considered 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
Read full review Scale factor, can be used like
Xero I believe. However all my past data was already stored in
Xero so I used it as an add on. It is a lot more user friendly and helpful, i.e. you don't need to be an accountant to use it. However I am not sure it is useable anymore or supported, so i have gone back to using
Xero alone.
Read full review Return on Investment faster processing of invoices due to short step process it's user friendly so not much training is needed to use the system templates and favorites decreases time spent Read full review They have been fundamental in helping us grow and scale at a relatively low cost in comparison to out-sourcing these functions. We can spend more on other items that can fuel growth while knowing the back end is taken care of. They provide automated supports for key areas like payroll, expenses, etc so that we can quickly get back to focusing on the other items. Read full review ScreenShots
