It aggregates emotional response ratings for various dimensions of the vendor-client relationship and product effectiveness, creating a powerful indicator of overall user feeling toward the vendor and product.

What differentiates Document Locator from other similar products?
Based on the other paperless invoice solutions we looked at Document Locator was the most able to customize and fit all of out needs. They also came recommended to us by our IT consultants.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
When I hear my accounting staff phrase how it has made their job easier. There is no way they we would have been able to transition into working from home during covid if we hadn't become paperless with DL a few years ago. Searching for invoices in our paper files use to be everyone's least favorite job and now it takes 2 seconds to pull up an invoice. This has improved our vendor relations and also the efficiencies of our audits. I also appreciate how customizable it is & that we can use the workflow feature for a number of our tasks.
What do you dislike most about this product?
We don't have an IT department at our company so most of the tech questions/ customization requests come to me since I'm the one who founds/implemented the software for our team. Columbia Softs tech support has always been incredible helpful to me we just need to train our IT consultants to help with it more so it doesn't fall on me.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
If you want to use DL to replace paper invoices do it! Make sure to take time to think through your processes & how to profile & set up your folders but once you're set up you will be really happy with how it works.
