AvidXchange vs. Latitude by Genesys

AvidXchange is well suited for companies with multiple locations where approvals may be hard to get directly. A user can log on when they have time basically from anywhere to review, code and approve invoices. This would allow for processing of invoices centrally more efficiently then with appear invoices being moved from one place to another to be processed

As a consulting company specializing in the support of Latitude by Genesys customers, I have first hand experience seeing all of the benefits to my customers of this platform. The ease of powerful interfaces, highly organized GUI based workflows, simple import/export automation as well as a host of integrated vendors makes this the platform of choice for me and my company. Prior to starting my consulting company I was an end user of Latitude by Genesys for 3 years and had the distinct opportunity to work with a top notch implementation team.

• Our contractors and vendors can submit invoices electronically through AvidBill, removing the tedious task of sorting and coding mail. This feature saves on time and administrative duties.
• Communication is key, and being able to log a comment or question in AvidInvoice allows for clarification and expedited approval process.
• Having multiple properties, having the Property Code and % Allocation features allow us to ensure the correct entity is charged it's portion of expenses. For example, we may have a service that is coded to all 32 properties. With AvidInvoice we are able to allocate each entity's pro rata share of the invoice.

Incentivized

• Payments plans management
• Account analysis reports
• The system is user friendly

• AvidPay needs some improvement to minimize the amount of time it takes to issue payment for invoices
• The search features within AvidXchange on the advanced search screen sometimes do not function correctly (sorting by ascending / descending order doesn't work all of the time).
• The log enhancement follow-up procedure could use some work.

Incentivized

• In the past, their support has been slow. This has improved dramatically.
• They don't take every one of my ideas and pump it into base code IMMEDIATELY!!

At the moment we have a contract for another year, we are hoping there is improvement with the company to decide if we stay with them or change.

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.

From our perspective, it would be good having a UGC tool integrated with the system.

Except for occasional escalations needed to Level 2 support, they are efficient and quick with nearly all requests.

They have an excellent support team. It was more helpful if they were available by phone, but your ticket system support works good. The Logmein123 is an outstanding tool that helps us a lot when we need support.

We are presently evaluating a move to Concur Invoice, not because of any real lack of functionality from AvidXchange, but simply because we have other business functions already on Concur Invoice. From what we have seen so far, the functionality is similar, though I believe Concur Invoice is more expensive.

Base on cost of initial investment, ongoing support and efficient development capabilities (i.e. import/export interfaces, workflows, etc.) this platform is leaps and bounds ahead of all the other major platforms I have worked with. Some of the others I worked with for as many as 12 years before experiencing the power of Latitude.

• Overall, AvidXchange is saving us money. We do not have to courier invoices back and forth once signatures have been provided.

• It helps our users to produce invoices and handling payment plans in a very efficient way.
