We use Esker's TermSync portal for collections management. We use it in the credit department to help log collection calls and also send out auto payment reminders on late-payers. We also allow customers to post payments using the site if they wish.
  • Collection logs.
  • Auto-send payment reminders.
  • Mass messaging
  • The site could be a little more user-friendly. I think it's daunting for first-time and even multiple-time users.
  • Maybe the page needs to be setup up clearer, or use different colors to not look busy.
Esker is helpful to log collection calls that the whole department has visibility to and to remind me when it's time to reach out again. It's nice to have the collection calls organized for me so then I can jump right in.

Our credit department uses Esker Document Process Automation to make collection calls. The software has assisted our department with collecting on past due customers while being able to manage and log each and every interaction with the customers. Not only does Esker Document Process Automation send out past due reminder letters, it also allows the customers to print invoices, offset their account balances and make payments!
  • Online Payments
  • Provides copies of Invoices
  • Sends out Reminder Letters
  • The layout is a bit clunky. I like to see everything on one screen.
Reminder letters are awesome!

Esker is being used by our accounting team for collections management. We use it to help improve our accounts receivables and to communicate with customers easily. We send out automatic weekly statements to customers who have any past due invoices, which gets us on their radar without having to do anything! It is such a convenience.
  • Customer service.
  • Easy to use.
  • Cost.
  • Missing data.
Esker allows us to send automated weekly reminders for any customers who have past due invoices. The customer can easily click into the email and view their account, print any invoices and even pay directly through the site. This process is very user-friendly and allows the customer to handle their account without us having to reach out for payment.

We use Esker across our whole organization as a means for submitting and processing invoices for payment. Accounts Payable uses Esker the most. The biggest problem we had was having too much paper. Esker helped decrease the amount of paper shuffling by a drastic amount. Esker also helped the AP department move invoices around quicker for internal approvals and payment.
  • Our users have a couple different ways to submit invoices into Esker for processing. This is helpful in case one of the other ways is unavailable for use.
  • Notes and comments can be made in multiple locations of the invoices to help keep all the information together.
  • We still encounter challenges with invoice submission and missing invoices that were sent into Esker but never show up.
For Accounts Payable, invoices used to be submitted via snail mail or email from all of our different locations. Since we have started use of Esker, we have noticed the time it has been saving everyone with processing invoices. It also helps greatly with questions from various vendors that are received on a daily basis.

We currently use TermSync as our collections and past dues software. This has helped my department to keep our past dues down and collect on some of the slower paying customers. This helps keep out receivable balance down and keep our dealers open to buy.
  • Past Due Reminders
  • Helps customers Schedule Payments
  • Great at logging notes and collection calls
  • Breaking out large invoices into long payment plans was tricky but once you got going it became easier
TermSync has been great for our customers' needs. It's helped us with collections and has helped our dealers with making sure that they keep their accounts current. Working through past due collections is very easy now with Termsync.

All 5 of our franchises use TermSync for Accounts Receivable Collections. It has virtually eliminated our 90 past due column. The automated past due reminders drive our customers to the portal where they can view their account, print an invoice or make a payment.
  • Sends out automated reminders
  • Makes copies of invoices self service
  • Makes online payments easy
  • I really don't have any suggestions
AutoPay is ideal for us

We use Termsync in our accounts receivable department only. We would like the payment plan process and set up to be more lucrative.
  • To do list Daily
  • Collection Calls Needed
  • Payments received
  • Root Cause: Reasons for lateness
  • Payment Plans, the date for payments cannot be moved backwards, I have to email Temsync to do it in-house
  • Collections calls
  • Email reminders

  • Improved expense approval workflows

  • Increased visibility and documentation. No more paper!
  • Esker is a very robust product with customization at virtually every step. It takes time to get used to using the product.

Quickly growing companies will benefit from Esker solutions to quickly adapt to increased processing demands. Smaller businesses may benefit but ROI should be considered.
