AutoEntry: The Key to Effortless Data Entry

Comentarios: Overall, AutoEntry has been a valuable asset for our organization. Its ability to quickly and accurately process financial documents, integration with popular accounting software, and OCR technology has greatly improved our data entry processes.

Puntos a favor:

As a general user of AutoEntry within my organization, I have found it to be a reliable and user-friendly tool for automating our data entry processes. One of the greatest advantages of this software is its ability to quickly and accurately process invoices, receipts, and other financial documents. This has greatly improved our efficiency and has saved a significant amount of time for our team. Additionally, the software's OCR (Optical Character Recognition) technology is highly accurate and has made it easy to extract data from various types of documents.

Puntos en contra:

A potential downside of using AutoEntry is that it may require some time and effort to set up the software and customize it to fit our specific needs. Also, some advanced features such as budgeting and forecasting may require additional tools or custom development.

Change how you deal with clients and your own accounts

Comentarios: Cut down on time spent on repetitive and labourious tasks to free up staff to work on higer paid tasks such as accounts preparation instead of record-keeping

Puntos a favor:

Easy to use New users are enthusiastic about the package Inexperienced users can make progress on data entry the package skims documents to pick up dates and amounts but also picks up on invoices where the invoice is entered twice and points out duplicates At the end of the accounts process everyone can log in and view an image of the actual invoice uploaded thereby cutting down on verbal explanations and long conversations and misunderstandings

Puntos en contra:

Possibly too easy to use Users sometimes click an invoice as paid which causes complications later

Bad

Comentarios: Rubbish.

Puntos a favor:

Nothing, it's rubbish. I have detailed why in my "cons" answer.

Puntos en contra:

Everything. It is SO slow, it doesn't have the option to code to "projects" for Sage One and when I asked the team if they had that option they just said "no" and haven't added that feature. There is a software that isn't part of Sage which you can link to Sage which has this feature so why can't the people who actually made Sage and Autoentry have this option?? Doesn't make sense and seems kind of lazy to me.

Autoentry

Puntos a favor:

The ease of uploading bank statements for data extraction

Puntos en contra:

The inability to purchase credits in bulk

Our experience with AE

Comentarios: Excellent. Very good help desk

Puntos a favor:

Clear , links will in accounting products. Our staff are uploading their invoices and coding on line. Much better than paper invoices floating around.

Puntos en contra:

Could do with expenses being a little more clear on the page for people not frequently in AE, they have a little trouble getting used to how to do their staff expenses - but we are getting there. Also some features like when an invoice was paid by debit card or credit card. not yet available for Sage users but on the development list. Now owned by Sage I expect it will work even better with sage as time goes on.

Given my team some time back in the day.

Comentarios: This has saved us hours of data entry and irradiated typos when entering bank statements and invoices.

Puntos a favor:

The ease in which bank statements can be converted in to a Excel spreadsheet or downloaded in to the accounting software

Puntos en contra:

It would be good if departments could be allocated for Sage Accounting

Good at Posting into Sage 50 Accounts

Comentarios: even when we have to manually put the order number in before we publish, it is still saving time.

Puntos a favor:

AutoEntry attaches the invoice in to Sage. the chat is very responsive and friendly.

Puntos en contra:

It does not automate if you need your order number in Sage. It is a lot more expensive than the competitor.

best software, I would say try it , once.

Comentarios: I am glad to use it, save lot time .

Puntos a favor:

some future not there , like undo invoice, soon you chat with help team, they sort it straight away. I won't say any pros

Puntos en contra:

expensive , worth to buy. it will better if 9 pounds 200 Invoice

A good way to speed up your accounting.

Comentarios: Generally a very good piece of software that has saved me a lot of time, and especially helped with the move to Making Tax Digital for our VAT returns.

Puntos a favor:

I can set rules to automatically apply to invoices that I receive regularly which over time has saved me a lot of effort as AutoEntry auto categorises invoices for me. Then matching them in Quickbooks is quick and easy to do.

Puntos en contra:

Sometimes the upload of photos of receipts through the app from my phone doesn't work. It can be very hit and miss.

Take the drudgery out of the data

Puntos a favor:

Spend less time entering data and chasing documents. It is smooth and automatic in use. It also works on smart analysis in the basic details of the work, including the supplier and tax account. It also works to improve time with customers, as it makes you spend less time in accessing accurate data

Puntos en contra:

It often happens that there are duplicate items on an invoice

AutoEntry Accuracy and Time Saving

Comentarios: I have realized that I don't need to pay someone to do this work . I simply spend 10 mins a day on AE and then pay everyone myself at the end of the month. The accounts have never been so tidy and up to date and I can get figures out of Sage that I know are correct.
This product is outstanding and costs the business a fraction of paying someone's wages.
You can also use it for statement s and expenses.

Puntos a favor:

I started using Auto Entry Last January after a member of staff left who looked after the accounts. We have about 250 purchase invoices a month and around 40 suppliers to pay so manual entry is time consuming and errors compound when statements don't tally. Any change is daunting but I was talked through the install on our main server and within a few days I was flying along. You teach to AE which account to put invoices to then it remembers. The package attaches a copy of the invoice to the line in Sage. No need for hundreds of lever arch files of purchase invoices, or searching through them to find what yo u paid for something, accounts add up for payment . I simply e mail them to AE from the main accounts e mail and to whoever placed the order so that they can be checked Any questions and there is a chat on the screen and the help sorts out any little issues in 5 mins.

Puntos en contra:

Occasionally there are delays in publishing the invoice through to Sage but these never last more than a few hours and by the morning everything is there , which is much faster than the manual way which sometimes took weeks.

Time saving promisses, time wasting results

Comentarios: I have been using AutoEntry for over 2 years hoping that the longer I used it the easier it would be to use. This is not the case. It is a rare occurrence when I can go through a short stack of processed invoices without having to open up support chat and request help or a complete reprocessing of a document. Correcting small discrepancies is a clunky process that requires moving your hands back and forth from the keyboard to the mouse several times for each line. Occasionally a document is so poorly processed that the data is fabricated to manipulate the numbers and force a balanced transaction. It would seem that documents are run through OCR with human assistance. For what ever reason this combination produces a grab bag of unpredictable results and it seems to be getting worse over the last few months. I was hoping AutoEntry would save me time but I it has done exactly the opposite.

Puntos a favor:

Once I correct the regular invoice inaccuracies in the user interface AutoEntry exports to QuickBooks Online well. Product mapping is easy when it works.

Puntos en contra:

About 2 out of 3 invoices with line items processed have some level of inaccuracy. There is an "automatically post" option that I would NEVER turn on if you care about having accurate data, cost centers, or inventory.

AutoEntry for Supplier Invoices Input

Comentarios: There are some behaviours you need to learn to get the best out of it but generally few issues. Very intuitive and love the fact that company adopts a consistent approach i.e. if it works why mess with it and upset happy users.

Puntos a favor:

Easy to use and multi platform via internet Browser. Very good on Apple iPad, Mac and Windows 10

Puntos en contra:

Would recommend that the document rejection process is improved as it is difficult to quickly check what went wrong or to say download all rejected documents for re review

Fantastic program

Comentarios: Large volumes of Sales and Purchase invoices are mainly what Autoentry is used for, by educating our clients to scan invoices over in batches, the upload to autoentry is so much easier than wading through mountains of paperwork, and autoentry notifies you of any duplications.

Puntos a favor:

The more you use it the more it remembers ! Consistency of allocation to nominals being a key factor, plus the attachment being within sage reduces the amount of paper and ink and space used with conventional filing.

Puntos en contra:

On occasion some items have not been transferred into sage, but the easy fix is to unpublish and republish which is a 2 click fix.

Huge time saver on entry and reduced purchase invoice duplication and errors

Comentarios: Overall, hugely improved the supplier invoice process, easy to use.
Resolved duplicate invoices being entered and saved the company time and money.
Massive time saver on employee expenses entry as each individual submits their own expense and is easy to check and approve.

Puntos a favor:

Integration with sage was seamless, setting up myself was a doddle and customer service is great as issues get resolved quickly. Huge time saver as we no longer have to use sage batches and also didn't need to have a separate screen to view the PDF invoices on entry as it's all in one screen on autoentry. One of the best features is viewing the invoice directly on sage using the onedrive link. Before this, we had to search the supplier repository on the server. It also helped reduce errors as it detects duplicates, autodetects the supplier and has a learning feature too.

Puntos en contra:

Can be slow at times and if not used for a few days, the service needs to be restarted. This results in invoices getting stuck until the service is refreshed, however as long as it's used constantly this can be avoided.

Great - when it works. Poor customer service

Comentarios: Will vote with my subscription - looking for an alternative as we speak

Puntos a favor:

When it works its great. Saves time when it works. My issue is that it only works 50% of the time

Puntos en contra:

We have problems monthly which is costly and time consuming as invoices are either not processed or they do not integrate. Customer service do not offer any real help. Visited their stand at Accountex to complain and was assured someone would contact me - still waiting for that call!

Good, but could do with improvement

Puntos a favor:

Once it has learned where things need to be posted it can make very quick work of posting invoices. Also is very accurate with bank statements (taking pdf and creating a csv from it).

Puntos en contra:

Very slow upload times, connection from AutoEntry to Quickbooks can sometimes cause differences in what what entered in Auto Entry, if it can't read a bank statement there is no notification it simply just doesn't appear.

Still having issues with the App

Comentarios: There is an issue with load receipts via the App. There’s are never processed on the app even if they have been which means you have a screen full of processing receipts / invoices. All customer support can suggest is to delete and reinstall the app. It’s been on going for months.

Puntos a favor:

Quick and easy to upload receipts and invoices.

Puntos en contra:

No customer support. No help at all If you have an problem

the program works well but complicated to install and very lottle support from providwe

Comentarios: Very disapponting

Puntos a favor:

the integration is efficient and works well when properly in place

Puntos en contra:

There is no support when things fo wrong: - nobody ever answers phone lines - support by email is to a minimum with useless advice - the chat is meant to reply within 5 minutes but never got a reply

Excellent, easy to use software, massive help to the business.

Puntos a favor:

It is a very simple to use. I would go as far as to say you don't even need the training webinar! But do watch it as I only use AutoEntry for bank statements conversion. A lot of our clients send their bank statements in a pdf format but with AutoEntry we can convert these into CSV files in less than a day! We then upload them onto our accounting software which is much quicker than entering every transaction. I would recommend this to everyone.

Puntos en contra:

Pages that are not bank statements are charged to remove. This is not a big issue but monthly bank statements usually have a cover page at the beginning and a fines page at the end. Over time this will accumulate. Maybe this charge can be removed in the future.

AutoEntry

Puntos a favor:

The ease of use of the software is great and along with its inegration with Xero this makes AutoEntry a key piece of software for our business.

Puntos en contra:

There is very little not to like about the software - there are occasional issues with the data transfer and having to reconnect to Xero but this doesnt happen often.

Good start- needs polishing up

Puntos a favor:

Pretty easy to use after you get the hang of it. Not badly priced compared to similar software. Excellent customer support.

Puntos en contra:

Processing time is a bit long sometimes as long as 24 hours. Uploads purchase invoice doesn't allow to export to excel. Very difficult finding the statement as doesnt sort them properly.

Auto Entry

Puntos a favor:

I'd only used Receipt Bank prior to being introduced to Auto Entry. Being limited to just purchase invoices, it was refreshing to have the option to upload not only purchase invoices but sales invoices and bank statements. It is very easy to use, processes information in a timely manner and syncs directly to Xero to aid with the bookkeeping process. When support is needed I get a quick and helpful response.

Puntos en contra:

The main issue relates to the notification of credit usage. Using the app daily does mean I keep on top of it but would be helpful to have some form of notification of credits left at any given time.

Xero Is Great!!

Puntos a favor:

Pros Can receive documents from many sources (web upload, smartphone app, email) Is actually accurate when capturing data Can handle multiple line items Can handle multiple document types (PDF, JPG, GIF, DOC) Can handle multiple taxes Easy to edit transactions Easy to batch re-categorize transactions Easy to organize documents/transactions Has fine grained control over how data is pushed to accounting software Contacts, accounts, and taxes are synced with accounting software Two-way transaction sync between accounting software and it Handles duplicates in a smart way

Great programm

Comentarios: A big step ahead.

Puntos a favor:

It replaces data entry clerk. AutoEntry enters each item, price and quantity. It helps to keep track of job costing, materials use and etc. Manual entering all our invoices used to take 2 hours daily, plus at the end of the month a few invoices would be missing for each supplier due to human factor. With AutoEntry monthly suppliers statements reconciliation takes a few minutes.

Puntos en contra:

I would like to be able to enter purchase orders and apply invoices toward the po-s.
