The IDC MarketScape recognized the extensive Basware network and its ability to connect with all suppliers regardless of sending method as strengths contributing to its position in the Leaders Category. Additionally, the assessment notes that Basware recently introduced product enhancements that leverage machine learning, including SmartPDF AI and the Approval Confidence Index.

The report also recognized Basware as a “pioneer in touchless automation,” with technology that “enables 100% visibility and transparency around all spend.” Basware took that visibility one step further with its recent launch of its Spend Insights dashboard, which provides a single view across an organization’s entire spend – direct, indirect, PO and non-PO – and recommendations on suggested actions, all designed to help procurement departments rapidly identify areas for potential savings.
