Testimonials from General Contractors:

“We were looking to go paperless and other systems just didn’t do all we needed. TimberScan seemed to flow in a way we thought a system should. It’s now so easy to stay on top of the approval process and to never lose track of invoices on approver’s desks. We were told it was going to be easy implementation and it was! TimberScan’s top notch technicians trained me and I easily trained the rest of the team. Even our employees most resistant to new technology now feel TimberScan is great!”

- Alyssa Bernier
Accounting Administrator, Channel Building Company

“The biggest reason we purchased TimberScan was to eliminate the large number of paper being shuffled all over the office. Because of TimberScan’s automated approval process it’s a snap... with no paperwork. We now get invoices back from our approvers three times as quick. Sometimes I have them back  on the same day. Our President, who is the final approver, is really impressed with his ability to view supporting documents.

- Melissa Ferris
Accounting Manager, Fretz Construction

“We save a gargantuan amount of time with TimberScan! No more filling, no more searching for invoices. I never worry as I can find any invoice from my desk at any time in an instant. The few times we have needed support the response times have been quick! Our project managers wonder why we didn’t purchase TimberScan sooner. They value their time and are thrilled they no longer have to hunt down paper.”

- Bob Scott
Controller, Thor Construction

“Everyone is much happier and feel they could never go back to our old methods of AP routing and approval. It’s God’s gift to us. It worked immediately out of the box and we had no growing pains.”

- Maribel Hart
Chief Financial Officer, Beauchamp Construction

“We had too much paper, too many file drawers. Paperless was the way to go, and TimberScan was the solution. Now approvers finish their approvals in half the time. All they have to do is review and push the Approve button. Each release delivers great value especially the version that contained supporting documents.”

- Teresa Whittaker
Accounting Manager, IMPACT Strategies

“Our auditors came in for a pre-audit and wanted to look at invoices from the Job Cost transaction level. Before TimberScan it would have taken hours to find and make copies of the invoices. With TimberScan we had all the requested invoices in five minutes. Within thirty days of our first look at TimberScan, we had purchased it, installed it, and had it up and running!”

- Wayne Grenon
Vice President of Finance, Bowdoin Construction

“We have seven off-site offices so every invoice was being mailed twice a week; we had no record of where the invoice was. We used Timberline’s AP pending system but it didn’t know who had the invoice, when they got them, and their status. Now all of these bottlenecks have been removed and we have seen a 25% reduction in costs. All of our staff who touch TimberScan really like it!”

- Stephanie Francis
Senior Accountant, Wharton Smith

“We had a number of superintendents that weren’t computer literate and there were major concerns early on about getting them up and running. We implemented TimberScan for just a few superintendents and PMs at a time. It was obvious to me in the first week or two that everyone would understand the software because it was that simple. Now my superintendents and PMs have absolutely no problem using TimberScan. They can even approve invoices from their home. Everyone loves it.”

- Ed McLelland
Chief Financial Officer, South Side Contractors

“TimberScan is definitely worth a look. My thought is that the problems one business has, most businesses are having. In the construction market we’re dealing with lots of subcontractors. We’re dealing with lots of invoices and lots of approvers. Many people have to verify costs to make sure that they’re okay. My recommendation is that you should definitely look at TimberScan. In many respects the software is free when you consider the efficiencies that you will obtain.”

- Mitch Bueltel
Chief Financial Officer, Wright Construction Corp.

Testimonials from Specialty Contractors:

“We love TimberScan! The main reason we purchased TimberScan was the accessibility of invoices to
everyone. From the project managers to the President everyone is experiencing increased efficiencies with the ability to quickly see scanned images. Our COO can monitor outstanding invoices and it’s a fantastic management tool. And at the end of the month, we know who’s holding us up. The purchase has paid for itself in 2 to 3 months. With our vendors, when you say something doesn’t work, nothing happens. With TimberScan, you get changes via support within a week. I have never seen this type of response from a software company.”

- Mary Anderson
Chief Financial Officer, Hydro Construction Company

“We’ve been using TimberScan since August 2008 and we love it. It is the easiest software we have ever implemented. Minimal training is needed for users and it was basically an out of the box implementation.”

- Vivian Martens
Weathertol Maintenance Corp

Testimonials from Developers & Property Managers:

“Invoices plus manual rooting equaled bottlenecks. Now with TimberScan we can track and see which approver desk the invoice is on. Best thing about TimberScan is you always know where the invoice is and it’s always available to view, print, or e-mail without having to get up from my chair. In the beginning we used TimberScan support often and they were exceedingly helpful. Their ability to easily log into our system saves time and makes us happy!”

- Dan Kelso
Accounting Manager, Joe Ruthven Real Estate

“We work with government agencies and the audits are now a breeze. Pulling up the invoices is simple and quick and we no longer have to go searching through our files and boxes! Our staff is happy and the auditors were impressed!”

- Dan Wendland
Controller, Costello Property Management

“We can’t imagine life without TimberScan! Before TimberScan we had no idea where invoices were. Now we have better management procedures and we can satisfy our internal audit controls in ways we couldn’t imagine before!”

- Joel Metz
Vice President of Property Management, Investors Real Estate Trust

“We needed the flexibility of having approvers working at multiple locations and couldn’t afford having paper traveling all over. TimberScan paperless routing solved that problem and gave us better control over the approval routing. It’s now so easy to see who had the invoice and how long they had it. Support is great. Calls are returned quickly and you feel that you are more than just a number.”

- Mark Sistko
Controller, Rental Systems
