Simplifying Bill Entry who doesn't need that!
Pros: Takes the manual labour, out of bill entry leaving you more time for the things in life that matter.
Cons: Companies that you want to get on board with Link4 to send their bills directly are not always quick to do so. The simple email from Link4 isn't to onboard them.

Good software depending on Business Model
NotLikely Extremely
Likely
Pros: I liked the interface layout and the fact that Link4 has potential to give you a lot of relevant information in one place. I also liked the way the information was identified, the default categories used to display your business information.
Cons: The functionality was clumsy at times and although the information is laid out on screen in an excellent way, you can't access just that pool of data from the main screen. Not a massive problem but just feels long-winded and clumsy development.
Overall: For a business handling volumes of invoices from numerous sources this seems like pretty good software and if enough of your clients and suppliers were willing to use the same software it could be brilliant. However, we found that most of our suppliers had solutions of their own and so didn't use the survey link so we couldn't really get the most out of it.

Subscribed to this software through one of our suppliers and discovered it did not fit our business
Pros: Invoices are recorded automatically. If the invoice was recorded in the correct format it would be a great system to use.
Cons: I disliked how the invoice was recorded. Most of the details had to be changed. It is easier to record an invoice as your receive it and manually record it.

At first it was easy, but as I added a few more customers and suppliers it became more difficult
NotLikely Extremely
Likely
Pros: That it links easily to our accounting software so I don't have to input so many invoices in our accounting software
Cons: I do have an issue with the software. When I do an invoice for one of our customers Link4 then tells me I have an invoice for the same amount from one of our suppliers and one has nothing to do with the other. Since this has happened I avoid using Link4.
Overall: I do like that we can be linked to our customers and suppliers so it's easier to manage our accounts

Overall Good Experience
Pros: Its connects the suppliers system with ours and we can see the invoice and post them in our books.
Cons: We have never used customer support hence rating given is 3. Same applies for Value for Money. We are using this facility through BOC. Its free as of now.
We do not get the invoices same day. It generally takes two days to receive invoice in the system.

Waste of time
Pros: Nothing about this product is useful. I would not recommend it to anyone. There is too much room for error in coding. I would prefer to have entered the invoice myself from scratch.
Cons: It does not attach copy of the invoice
It drops into my accounting software and codes it incorrectly so I am having to go through and check and amend everything anyway. If anything it costs me more time and frustration.

Hi Crystal, thanks for your positive feedback, glad to hear that you enjoy using our software. We are working on automatically adding the invoice as an attachment as we understand that it is very important for our users. Regards, Customer Success Team, Link4.
I am only a small user and therefore have not had much negative problems. Good so far.
Pros: Receive a email notification when invoice has been uploaded by supplier. This helps a lot so then you only need to check it when you received the email.
Cons: Linking email message was not up to date and therefore was not relevant to set up the linking. Everything now in different places.

I only use it for one suppliers invoices so it is pointless for my use
Pros: I think if I had more suppliers that used it it may be useful to get their invoices entered easier.
Cons: It doesnt interact well with myob. I chose the accounts I wanted it linked to but it still selected its own

Hi Sharmaine, thanks for your positive feedback, glad to hear that you enjoy using our software & like the time-saving that Link4 offers. Regards, Customer Success Team, Link4.
Waste of time. Had an invitation to a trial. Then endless emails telling me how I had to fix it!
Pros: If it worked, it would save me time. It is not time-saving and helpful to be told this when I've taken the time to feedback information to you.
Cons: Why make an offer to trial the software if you haven't ironed out all the issues? I never got an invoice downloaded to my MYOB and when it should have downloaded, it didn't. I just do not have time to work it out with your support team. If it worked as it should, it would be great.

Overall: None. We could find the documents required from our suppliers website.

Great customer service
NotLikely Extremely
Likely
Pros: It's abilities. Link4 made accounts receiving so simple.
Cons: It was a bit tricky to get started with, but a quick phone call from customer service got the ball rolling.
Pros: Saved time exporting invoices myself, I received an email to know I had a new invoice so I knew to go into myob & check it
Cons: I had to manually change account codes & values in myob as the invoices came into the wrong account code & I also had to manually change invoice number as we have po number & invoice no the same & can only be a maximum of 8 characters therefore we drop the first digits off invoice not the last to make 8, when invoice comes in through link it drops the last digits which then creates invoice numbers the same

Hi Kylie,
Thank you for your feedback.
You don't have to change the account codes or values in MYOB, you can select the account in Link4 and this will allocate the line items to the proper account automatically.
http://help.link4.co/how-it-works/myob-ar-live-users-how-to-allocate-a-default-account-to-your-selected-suppliers
You also have to select the default format for the bill.
Can you please email support@link4.com.au with your phone number, so one of our Customer Success Team can call you and sort out these issues.
