Esker vs. Yooz

Esker On Demand is great for Sales Order Processing order creation. We use it with web services. It can make table read calls, test order creations (simulate order), and help with order creation. They are also working on change order management, but if you have multiple order entry methods or touch points, this feature may not be usable for your company.

Any company manually coding and entering more than 1000 invoices a month needs Yooz. Any company wanting full visibility and accountability through the life of an invoice needs Yooz. Any company who needs to control who can see and or code transactions needs Yooz.

• Esker makes automated invoice sending very easy
• Esker tracks the sending of documents & records whether or not the message was successful
• Esker offers various reports that can be very helpful
• Esker stores all of our customers' contact info on the cloud, and it can be accessed from anywhere

• Yooz allowed for the uploading of purchase orders and the matching of purchase orders to invoices for smooth processing of invoices.
• Yooz performed three way matching in a stream lined manner.
• Yooz was a user friendly software that integrated well with Oracle NetSuite.

Incentivized

• We can't enter credit memos in Esker. Need to enter in SAP and then link.
• PO invoices that were trained to go into the PO bucket, route into the non-PO buckets.
• Freight invoices that have had hundreds going into the non-PO bucket have a tendency to route to the PO-bucket because a PO number is referenced on page 7.

• Unfortunately Yooz is a newer software company, and Yooz was not equipped to process large batches of invoices that needed to be paid.
• Yooz, in some instances, did not properly load invoices or credit memo information accurately into NetSuite. The detail in Yooz did not match in the general ledger in NetSuite, and the records did not match. Yooz's IT support also a difficult time correcting our issues.
• Yooz is a new company and there is still a lot of software upgrades and better development that needs to take place before it can be considered a reliable software.

I love Yooz and everything it has brought to our organization!

Esker does everything that it promises to do, but it is very hard to figure out. I am a very tech-savvy person, but I needed extensive training to be able to use the basic functions of Esker. Once you know what you're doing, it's not too hard, but I don't understand why they couldn't make it easier to use.

They have been very helpful and the online support site is awesome. They keep the site up to date with the latest changes and present challenges to keep learning the new updates to keep things entertaining. They are overall a great crew to work with

I have listed a few that we considered but there were many more in the initial assessment, Esker was priced well and had the best user interface. Was really easy to use and the implementation process was well designed. It was a system that could handle a two tiered delegations of authority for project expenditure and operational expenditure.

Yooz comes close to Coupa, but Coupa is much more robust and can handle much larger batches of information. Yooz performed well against Bank of America's Checkbook product, because it was more efficient. The other NetSuite products did not match up for our needs, so Yooz was a better solution at the time.

• We now have reporting available down to the individual field level (changes, errors, etc) and can calculate cost to serve.
• It replaced on-premise hardware with cloud SaaS that is more cost effective and risk adverse.
• It is more intuitive; we can put new hires on order entry and experience less user errors. As a solution owner who fixes problems and answers questions, I don't find myself having to "think" about Esker and it has become a smaller part of my job now that end-users are more self-sufficient.

Incentivized

• Helps the invoicing process be much more organized & easier to follow
• Able to get through invoices much quicker
• Ease of contacting the person who it needs to go to or posting a question. This way everyone involved can see things in one area.
