For a company who is needing to transition from paper invoices/manual approvals to an electronic solution, AvidXchange is an excellent option. It is very functional and will highly improve your invoice capability, the speed of invoice processing, and will help your overall accounts payable department. It also makes auditing much easier, where auditors are able to easily search invoices, see approvals, payment status, etc.
A great corporate card for startups. Easy to use and set up, easy search and track spending. I would recommend it to tech companies looking for an interface and experience that vastly improves on existing banks. Also great to have a large line of credit compared to what's offered traditionally
Automation: Every part of Avid's process is automated through the use of workflows established by the AvidXchange administrator. This allows all vested entities to review and approve the payment of an invoice in a timely manner.
Transparency: As an invoice goes through the review and approval process, every step is documented and available for review. This ensures all parties are appropriately vested in ensuring the timely approval of invoices for payment
Accuracy: Automating the AP process has helped to minimize the risk for errors that occur through manual invoice entry and approval.
Rewards - The rewards were the main reason for us switching. Our previous card provider did not have a good rewards program.
User Interface and experience - When a charge is recorded on the Brex card, users immediately receive a text notification asking them to send a picture of their receipt. Brex automatically attaches the receipts to the charge which has saved our users a significant amount of time.
I really wish there was a way for AvidXchange indexers to "get to know" the companies they index for. The indexing policies are such that it leaves little room for common sense and I do a fair share of correcting workflows and such.
AvidXchange is very easy to use and the customer service is always there is you need help or more training. New employees even comment on how easy it is to pickup the program.
At the time we moved to AvidXchange; CSI did not have the full functionality of processing invoice for payment. We only utilized them for specific vendor who took payments via virtual credit card. All invoices were processed in house by our AP Department.
We use and thoroughly enjoy both. One we use as our main bank and Brex as our credit card provider. I'd say they serve different purposes (with Brex we get points), whereas Mercury we mostly use for wire transfers. We did initially start using Mercury because we needed a checking account, but Brex has been nice because of the rewards and the way it works to track expenses and cards.
AvidXchange has saved us on payroll by making the process go from hours to minutes. It really cuts down the time needed to get invoices approved and into QB for payment.
It is very easy to train employees to use which also saves time and money.
