Emburse Chrome River Invoice vs. Square Invoices

• 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.

Square Invoices is the best service that I have found for what it does: it's easy to use, nice to look at, and never seems to go to spam or be lost by clients. Clients mention that the setup is easier than services my competitors use. You can even attach your contract to the invoice, which is wonderful in case there are questions later on. Unfortunately, not being able to have clients alter quantities or select add-ons means for half of my services, I have to use a different, inferior service.

• Look for duplicate invoice numbers
• Export into the current ERP system to initiate the check
• Create an error report to view if the address is not correct in the system

• Adding a customer to invoice is super simple and takes minimal effort.
• Payment collection is easy and seamless because Square Invoices allows the recipient to pay using credit/cards.
• One of the fest features is allowing invoices to be recurring. If my contract stipulates a flat fee monthly, I can set the invoices to recur monthly for the duration of the contract.

Incentivized

• Accessing invoice history
• Reporting

• The reports section is not always the easiest to understand. It seems like I have to stop and think about options instead of it being 100% intuitive.
• With the fees we pay per transaction, it would be nice to be able to add additional "limited" users for no extra cost.

The only time I had a problem was a false chargeback from a client. Square Invoices referenced our contract and ruled in my favor, and they did so in a timely manner. I sent them the contract and my email history with the client, and they quickly unfroze the amount of money.

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.

Square Invoices is easier to use and automatically transfers your money to your bank account vs Paypal that holds your money and you have to manually transfer and it takes 3-5 days (many times more). Square Invoices looks better overall, and for the same fees as Paypal, provides a better service overall.

Incentivized

• No more lost campus mail
• No more staff walking documents through approvals
• No more scanning
• No more file storage needed
• No more multiple copies of the same information in several departments

• I love that I can sort my invoices in total, or by a specific time period to see how my sales are doing and comparing to prior time periods.
