We use AvidXchange Invoice for our AP automation and to easily get invoices approved before payments are made. This helped to keep invoices from being lost in emails. AvidXchange makes it much easier to have all the invoices in one place when needing to do some research as well.
Pros
AI Capture is a great feature
The workflows are endless which really help get invoices to the correct approvers.
The email feature helps get invoices in from vendors.
Cons
I wish it could break apart multiple invoices that are sent in one PDF.
I would like it to auto delete statements that are emailed in.
Likelihood to Recommend
Makes AP automation much easier and less time consuming. The AI Capture feature helps keep information moving along in invoices as received. The comment tab makes it easy to keep notes about the invoice between employees.
We use it to approve bills for our stores. The invoices are initially coded by an accountant and approved so that the GM then has to view and approve the bill.
Pros
Imports into Intacct
Support is quick to help
Invoices also import into Intacct
Cons
Issues with vendors receiving VCC
Likelihood to Recommend
It is well suited so you don't have to follow email trails of managers approving bills to be paid. You can see the audit trail for each bill to see who approved it so there is no confusion.
AvidXchange is our invoice processing platform. All vendors submit invoices to AvidXchange, header level information is extracted by their processors, and invoices are routed through workflows for approvals before coming to our Accounts Payable team for payment. It is essentially used by our whole organization, as most every department has a workflow and approver who uses it for approving and coding invoices. In our Finance Department, we use it extensively for vendor management, invoice paying, and accounts payable research. For us, the biggest problem it solved is the elimination of paper invoices. We were drowning under a pile of paper, and as our organization spread out more geographically, maintaining paper invoices and approvals was becoming impossible. AvidXchange allowed us to go electronic, streamline approvals, and have given us a much more sustainable and scalable invoice solution.
Pros
Invoice processing
Workflow capability
Search functionality
Cons
1099/W9 functionality could be better
For us, the PO capability is not very functional, but we acknowledge our operations are a little different than the normal business
Would love two-way vendor management integration with our accounting software
Likelihood to Recommend
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.

I'm unable to answer the question directly because our organization used AvidXchange in a unique way. Our software is designed to accept payment directly. We have several clients who have to use AvidXchange to process their payments so we are on the receiving end of the process. With that explanation, a single department uses it, but again, it's on the receiving end.
Pros
AvidXchange's client portal is one of the best I've encountered. It's clear and easy to use. I appreciate their desire to constantly improve it.
Communication with AvidXchange is great! You can quickly get a hold of a real person and they've all been able to help resolve my issues quickly.
Cons
I haven't encountered anything that I think could be improved. I've been part of testing groups and they tend to notice things before I do.
Likelihood to Recommend
I really appreciate their web portal. I can quickly and easily find what I need. Additionally, they're quick to process payments.

My company uses AvidXchange in all departments to approve invoices and review what work is being done and how it should be paid. It helps manage all employees' accountability on what invoices are being paid compared to the work that is being done at one of our corporate campuses or commercial properties. It has helped organize invoices by property and has helped us pay each invoice correctly by entity.
Pros
Great organizational tool.
Able to pay invoices right from the site.
Has a wide variety of reports that can be utilized.

Setting up users and new entities.
A training on reports and which are the best to use.

AvidXchange can be used in all situations where an organization needs to pay a wide variety of invoices and needs its employees to sign in and approve what should be paid. There is no situation where an employee shouldn't go in to look at invoices or work that was ordered and needs review before payment.
