Overall Satisfaction with Airbase
We use Airbase to approve POs, purchase requests, and invoices as well as vendor management. I am the FP&A (financial planning & analysis) approver for all requests within Airbase and have found Airbase to be a very easy to use tool even compared with similar tools I have used at previous opportunities. It's been very beneficial to dig into actual expenses and give context to the budget owners in our reviews.
- Vendor views including invoices, contracts, and payments.
- Approval paths for purchases that give the right stakeholders a say.
- Comments and tagging functionality in the approvals for when questions arise.
- I'm not sure if this is an Airbase limitation or how we set up it but more control over where the expenses get assigned in terms of departments.
- We've been able to catch oversized spend with the Airbase approval process and renegotiate deals more in line with out expected usage which has saved us money.
- Leveraging Airbase has helped us more accurately budget and forecast future periods.
Accounting typically selects which software we use and being in FP&A I'm typically leverage the tool for approvals and to get more insights into vendors and spend. For my use case, I think all 3 are comparable and think Airbase stacks up well against the competition. I'm not sure how they compare on price.
