"basic needs"
Comments: organization and communication was key when communicating with my co-workers on multiple projects. This helped us keep all of our orders in one location so that if one of us was not present that the others would know what had been ordered.
Pros: It allowed us to keep vendors saved for future use. We were able to reference different orders to the PO numbers. It allowed us to continue to reference old PO's to see what transaction happened that had taken place before our hire.
Cons: The search engine was very specific. If we were looking for drawstring bags and it was entered in as draw string bags the search field wouldn't find it. I wish that a bit more information about the order would appear in the list screen. We would place multiple orders in a day from the same vendor. If we were searching for a particular item but the search feature didn't pull it up we would have to search through the many PO's from that particular vendor click in and closing out each one until we find the right one. Where if there was a column that showed the notes or possibly 1 line item in the PO that would help find things quicker.

Thank you for your feedback Brittney. Agree that we need to improve search functionality and it is on our "to do" list.

"Overall, Officewise is easy to use and a helps keep our purchase orders organized for 23 locations!"
Pros: The software is very user-friendly. Easy keyword searches on past purchase orders. You can copy previous purchase orders and resubmit with minor changes, so it makes PO entry quick. You can give everyone in a department access to see past PO's of other
Cons: We have had trouble with the approval process. You can select multiple approvers in the PO, but rather than going to the next approver, our POs will go back to the original person submitting the PO each time an approver approves.
Vendor Response
by Officewise on 13/12/2017
Thank you for your feedback Meredith! Not sure why PO would be going back to the original person submitting the PO each time an approver approves. Will follow-up with you directly to help resolve.

"I was new to Officewise and had very little training. In no time I was up and running!"
Comments: I can track the expense and purchases for each location
Pros: Very easy to use and negotiate your way around the software. I also like being able to customize the dashboard.
Cons: You can not print a detailed PO from your dashboard once it is approved. You have to go to Home then Purchase Orders, search for the PO then print them. Wish there was a quicker way to do this.
Vendor Response
by Officewise on 18/12/2017
Thank you for your feedback Susan! Once a PO is approved you should be able to click on a link in the approval notification that will take you directly to the approved PO where you can print it. From the list of POs you can also set filters to see only those purchase orders where you are the requisitioner which may make it easier to find POs. I will follow-up with you to further discuss these solutions and how we can improve.

"Love Officewise"
Pros: Website is very easy to use and self explanatory. You can easily save POs, convert to PDF, search for past POs. The latest update has also added quite a few new and great features.
Cons: The only Con or feature I wish could be added is a list of projects so that you can allocate which PO belongs to which project.
Vendor Response
by Officewise on 17/05/2017
Thank you for your review. For project tracking we recommend using the "Tag" field on the purchase order. You can then run purchase order tag reports to see which PO belongs to which project. I will follow-up with you directly to show how this can be done.

"Great product"
Pros: The software is easy to use and the approval process is very easy. Being able to see the status of PO's is also very nice
Cons: There are two lines for entering expenses which seems redundant. It would be nice to only have one line for each expense
Vendor Response
by Officewise on 26/07/2017
Thank you for your review! There should only be one line for entering expenses followed by optional accounting detail fields below which you can hide if you want. I will follow-up with you directly to make sure I understand your feedback and show you how to hide accounting detail fields and otherwise discuss how we can improve.

"track POs with ease"
Comments: we didn't have a customizable PO system before officewise
Pros: the filter and sort fields make it easy to find any Purchase Order quickly. The ability to email a PO straight to the vendor cuts down on repetitive actions!
Cons: When I close a PO I would like the screen to refresh to the main PO list instead of having to close out of the closed PO screen.
Vendor Response
by Officewise on 09/12/2017
Thank you for your feedback. To end up on the main PO list page after closing a purchase order we recommend closing the purchase order from the list page which you can do by checking the box next to the purchase order, then click on the More button at the top of the list, then click on Close option. This feature also allows you to close multiple purchase orders at a time. Hope this helps.

"Great, easy to use & affordable"
Comments: Love the software. Version 2.0 is awesome. Just wish it have the ability to do quote versions & track cost inside of a quote without having to create an inventory item.
Pros: Easy to use, many many features
Cons: Can't revision quotes without losing old quote. Wish I could put costs in quote for my own tracking.

Thank you for your feedback Glen! I have some ideas about how to revise and track versions of quotes as well as track cost without having to create an inventory item. Also would like to better understand the issue to see how we can improve going forward. Will reach out to you to further discuss.

"great"
Pros: I like how it self generates pos, emails orders, tracks everything very nicely, very user friendly!!
Cons: I really cant think of a con other than when you email someone they can't reply back to you unless they have your email. when they reply to the order it goes to officewise email account.
Vendor Response

Thank you for your feedback Tyler! We recently updated the system so that if you reply to an email received through the system it will always go back to the person who first sent it instead of to an Officewise email account.

"This is by far the easiest software to maintain my accounts"
Comments: Keeping track of all my customers and weekly invoices with ease.
Pros: The ease of the software, the format, the great customer service and it's one hundred percent dependable.
Cons: There's really nothing I can say that I don't like. Maybe the only thing that needs to be adjusted is the font size of the initial layout. But of course, that's something you can adjust on your own.......

"Purchase Order Program Success Using OfficeWise"
Comments: We use Officewise daily for purchase order management and vendor interaction. The old process was slow and it required many steps, with Officewise we took our purchasing department from 4 to 1 staff member because of the ease of use, speed and overall management efficiencies we gained. Officewise has saved us money!!!!
Pros: ease of use
Cons: some of the reporting

"Great for beginners"
Comments: Great for small businesses, probably wouldn't recommend for companies with thousands of accounts as it can get tricky managing multiple purchase orders at once, however, it's definitely been a huge time saver and game changer.
Pros: I got this software because I opened my own small clothing business and needed a way to track all my invoicing and POs. I much prefer it over excel, I find it much more organized and easier to use when tracking expenses and invoicing. It definitely helps me save time at the end of every month because everything is organized and I don't need to go back through multiple saved documents trying to sort and figure everything out
Cons: I hope you don't need to void or delete anything - it can become incredibly complicated. Also the ability to print multiple POs would be helpful.
Vendor Response
by Officewise on 17/05/2019
Thank you for your feedback.
To preserve transaction history currently the system does not allow for deleting saved purchase orders. You can void saved purchase orders by going back to the purchase order and clicking on Void under the More button. The system works the same for saved invoices and other transactions.
The system does allow you to print multiple purchase orders at a time as follows:
1- Log into your account and navigate to list of purchase orders
2- Check box to left of any purchase order you want to print
3- Click on More button at top of list and then click on PDF Print in the dropdown
Once you complete steps above a pdf with all the purchase orders you selected will be generated which you can then save and/or print.
We are always looking for ways to improve the system so I will follow-up with you directly to further discuss and see what we can do better.

"Officewise has been a good way to improve our PO and ordering system. Seems to streamline things"
Pros: Having the order history saved and being able to call up previous items. Also, having the ability to look at old purchase orders and see what has been fulfilled
Cons: It's difficult to correct a mistake on an item once it's entered. Also having to approve an order that you personally ordered seems redundant.
Vendor Response
by Officewise on 14/12/2017
Thank you for your feedback Kevin! The system should allow you to correct any mistakes on an item within the PO while you are creating it or by editing the item record and there are a few different ways you can make it so that you don't have to approve your own orders. I will follow-up with you directly to further discuss and see what we can do to improve.

"Overall this has been a great tool for purchase order tracking."
Comments: For the cost benefit it has been a useful tool.
Pros: It has been a great too for tracking the cost of products and services purchased for projects. I have utilized it extensively for some time now and am happy with it's performance as an end user.
Cons: The search function in the items module could be a little better defined and allow for searching for a portion of a name or part number.

"Fantastic Accounting Software"
Comments: This system has allowed us to be better organized and increase our approval time for paying invoices.
Pros: One of my favorite features with this software are with its bills and expenses. We have over 50 locations, it makes it easy to manage the expenses and obtain approval to pay these since the owners are able to approve it electronically. The inventory function is also wonderful with tracking our IT inventory. It has allowed us to log everything and we have cut down on expenses since we can actually see what we have on hand without having to do a physical count.
Cons: We are still new to this software but so far I do not have any complaints other than the just taking the time to learn a new software.

Needs to hold more customer names

Thank you for your feedback. The system should allow you to stay logged in if you want as well as save a sales order and create a new one at once by clicking the "Save & New" button.

Pros: I like that it saves prior purchases and details. It is also easy to see where your order is being held up and notifies you when it has been sent all the way through.

"Helps me to manage my business spending."
Pros: A really ground tool to budget your office spending. I started with the free trial and then later segued into a paid program that was more than reasonably priced for my small budget. The software is all online based, so there's nothing to download or install. Everything is managed on the internet. And while I don't have the best nor quickest internet connection, I can still use this product with ease. Using this product helps with the administration of our paperwork so I'm free to get to the business of earning money and working in the field. I've heard they're expanding their offerings. I'm looking forward to what more they'll be able to do for me in the future!
Cons: Well, on the few times my internet has been down I couldn't access my account because it's all internet based. That's only a problem for me due to my rural location. The majority of users are better located than me. Other than that, I have no issues.

Vendor Response
by Ryan on 15/05/2018
I am sorry to hear that you did not have a positive experience with Officewise and wish we could have done more to help. Soon after you signed up for our 30-day free trial I sent you an email with my direct contact information and offered to help however I could. You responded indicating that you were having some difficulty with the system and I promptly replied and offered to get on the phone to help. A few days later you got back to me indicating that you were still having the same problem and I again offered to get on the phone to help but you refused. Our system allows you to import any setup data you wish (e.g. accounts, contacts, items…) so you don’t have to manually enter it and we are happy to help with this. Our system also allows you to delete records you upload as long as you don’t link to other records and while you cannot delete records that you have linked to other records it is easy to purge record data from the system which I would still be glad to help you do.
