### "Powerful Document Capture Solution with Responsive Support" — 5.0/5

> **John** | *3 December 2025* | Higher Education | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Excellent value for money compared to other solutions. The AI-assisted invoice coding is highly accurate and has streamlined our accounts payable process. Customization and workflow building is much easier than competing products. User and group management provides robust access control while remaining easy to configure. Customer support is responsive and works collaboratively to solve problems. Document management offers secure storage with robust indexing.
> 
> **Cons**: When a document gets lost or misrouted during processing, it can be confusing to troubleshoot and get it back on track. Clearer recovery options or better visibility into where a document went wrong would be helpful.
> 
> I use GlobalCapture and GlobalSearch to automate invoice coding for bill payment and as a document management solution. The platform delivers strong automation capabilities at an affordable price point. Support has been a standout as they take a creative approach to building solutions that fit our specific processes. Overall, it's been a reliable system that has improved efficiency for our team.

> 
> **Pros**: The setup costs and yearly maintenance is very reasonable expaecially compared to other products.  Support has resolved our issues quickly
> 
> **Cons**: The licensing and user setup was a little clunky for us.  Although some of this might be how we have our users set up in AD.

### "Unusable at scale" — 1.0/5

> **Chris** | *25 October 2021* | Food & Beverages | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: User friendly enough for people with low computer literacy skills.
> 
> **Cons**: No automatic cleanup options. File bloat is unmanageable. can only select 22~ docs ever minute. Max of 1,000 at a time. On own virtual server with 12gb ram. Support only suggestion add more ram, at 24gb sever is using under 30% but still move as slow and crashes when tiring to delete more than 1,000 docs at a time. If you buy this product be prepared to dump unlimited storage space to it.
> 
> Cocky and conceded staff, poorly written code, support unable to provide help for the simplest things.

-----

> 
> **Cons**: Cost was a little over our budget but compared to our current document management system it seems to be worth it.
> 
> We are currently going through implementation but so far they have been great. Well organized training and very open communication. The system is easy to use and access, and the AI feature is a plus.
