    Very well suited for founders who are building companies in the US but are not US citizens. Works like a charm for start-ups who are looking for a cutting-edge product and not an outdated bank! Small-medium teams. Not well suited for those who are used to traditional banking and prefer in-person interaction or over the phone.

    • Easy to use with little to no navigational training needed for most users.
    • Being able to add our own compliance rules eliminates the back and forth between creator and approver.
    • Invoices can be created, approved, and paid within hours.
      • Normally, our processing time is two or three days. Before Emburse Chrome River Invoice, it was up to two weeks.
    • Easily upload receipts/invoices into the system using email or the application SNAP. No need to have a scanner.

    Pros
    Brex
    • 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.

    • Export into the current ERP system to initiate the check

    Usability

    The usability is pretty great. I love the UI / UX for uploading the Memo; at times, I do not even need to be inside the platform. I simply use Slack.

    Prompt and always extremely fast to respond. I also think the intuitiveness of their solution negates the need for much support

    Divvy allows you to get hyper focused in on how much individuals are allowed to spend. Honestly it is comparable to Brex, but is more well suited for micromanaging organizational spend. Brex is good because I am able to give my employees limits that match our budgets and I don't care about micromanaging their spend.

    We were previously using paper check requests or Jaeger for invoicing payments. We do still use them for anything other than travel. However, all travel-related items are processed through Emburse Chrome River Invoice--we are hopeful that in the future we will navigate to processing all payments in Emburse Chrome River.
