“Based upon its solution and provider strength rankings, Esker deserves strong consideration from any large and mid-size enterprise exploring ePayables automation transformation,” said Bob Cohen, vice president of research at Ardent Partners. “Esker is a good fit for companies running SAP® and/or multiple ERP systems that operate globally and have significant reporting needs.”

Esker goes beyond AP to optimize the full Procure-to-Pay (P2P) cycle and offers a larger customer experience portfolio which also includes Esker’s Order-to-Cash (O2C) suite. This end-to-end automation capability makes Esker a unique player to accelerate the cash conversion cycle.
