Let Me Expand." — 4.0/5 > **Carl** | *9 August 2023* | Wholesale | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: Given that I am in a lumber and building materials industry, Epicor BisTrack provides a good solution for our company's needs as it is designed to cater to my industry. Epicor Bistrack is able to integrate well with our existing accounting software - data is transferred between the software in real time. In terms of analytical components, BisTrack has options to satisfy data analytical needs as it allows for report customizations and lets you create the reports that you want to see. > > **Cons**: What I liked the least about Epicor Bistrack is the fact that the user interface isn't that intuitive to use and I find myself getting easily lost in all the screens. Our Accounts Receivable is performed through the software and I finding out which sales invoices was paid on what payment takes quite awhile. When dealing with annual audits, gathering documentation like this is a huge headache because it literally takes like 2-3 for each transaction. Multiply that by at least 300 records and you have yourself a living nightmare. > > Epicor BisTrack is a suitable program that satisfies my company's needs. The only thing I would recommend to fix is the Accounts Receivable section as there really needs to be a better way to look up information surrounding the invoices and payments so that it makes looking for back-up documentation smoother. ----- ### "Epicor BisTrack from a User Perspective" — 4.0/5 > **Michael** | *25 July 2023* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: BisTrack is a helpful software that has industry specific functionality - mainly being tailored specifically for lumber and building materials businesses. BisTrack also has integrated solutions where it can work together with our accounting software to obtain the consolidated data that we require for financial reporting. In addition, you can customize your analytics and reporting to generate reports that contain the specific data that you are looking for. > > **Cons**: What I liked the least about Epicor BisTrack is the overall complexity to use the software. The software is not intuitive to use (meaning it's easy to get lost when using it) and finding back-up documentation for specific transactions can be an absolute nightmare. Looking for what customer payment is applied to which invoices in BisTrack in the Accounts Receivable function is quite cumbersome - we need to go through a string of screens before arriving at the information that we need. Again, it's not intuitive so a lot of trial and error commenced before we found what we needed.In addition, there are sometimes discrepancies that occur between BisTrack and our accounting software which raises large concerns in terms of the accuracy of our financial information. Luckily, the discrepancies are a rare occurrence but it can happen. > > Overall, Epicor BisTrack satisfied my company's needs despite the issues that we encountered while using it. ----- ### "BisTrack at Taiga" — 3.0/5 > **Simon** | *9 August 2023* | Wholesale | Recommendation rating: 3.0/10 > > **Pros**: A nice feature is also that users can upload supporting documents (i.e. sales invoices, vendor invoices, shipping documents, etc.) in BisTrack which we can easily export to provide to our auditors. I am not sure if this feature was included or if we had to build this into BisTrack, but it saves us time and has complete documents for each transaction. > > **Cons**: I think BisTrack is not the most common software, so it is difficult for users to learn. There are a lot of parameters you have to set when exporting documents. Also, the exported document is not properly formatted so you will have to spend time formatting it before we can use it in excel to perform our analysis or financial reporting. Lastly, we have to rely on a third party to help us resolve the problem when we have a technical issue with BisTrack. > > I would rate my overall experience with BisTrack as average. I only use Bistrack to export documents to perform my analysis and financial reporting and the software does it job, but I do need to spend additional time to format my work. Lastly, we do rely on a third party consultants to help us fix issues when our internal IT does not know how to resolve the problems. ----- ### "Loan Dang - Accounts Payable - Taiga Building Products - Bistrack Survey" — 4.0/5 > **Thi Yen Loan** | *25 August 2023* | Building Materials | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: It is not so easy to use, because it linked to other software in my company like Great Plain to link the invoices.But it good for all kinds of functions. So overall It is good to me. > > **Cons**: Because it was linked to other software, so sometimes there is mistake, and don't know where the mistake comes from. Some error need experience to know where it came from. Example, I had one invoice was submitted from branch, but I couldn't approve because of currency branch chose different between Purchase Order and final currency on invoice. I don't know how to fix; I need to ask our web's administration to help me explain for this and fix it.So it would be better if the branch saw that error before they submit and they fixed it before submission. Thanks\! > > At the end of the months, we need to post much of invoices, if more than 5 user post one time, Bistrack will have error. SO, we need to take time for posting. That issue I usually see.But the most benefit, I think it can contain a huge data for the whole process from ordering to updating order, receiving invoice, processing invoice. ----- ### "A Decent ERP in the Building Supply Industry" — 4.0/5 > **Tristan** | *24 August 2023* | Building Materials | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: BisTrack worked well with all the other parts of the business made sorting our products and 3 way matching a much more seamless part of the overall operation. > > **Cons**: Downloading reports can be challenging at times, and there's an occasional delay when accessing certain features due to speed issues. > > In general, I find BisTrack to be a valuable tool for my work-related tasks, and I don't often encounter many issues using it. Nonetheless, I'm aware that some other departments might have concerns about the software's speed, particularly since they rely on it regularly. ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/99824/epicor-bistrack?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/99824/epicor-bistrack) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
