Overall Satisfaction with Dext Prepare (with Receipt Bank)

Dext reliably scans and extracts all necessary info from our bills and moves them to Xero without issue. The amount of time we save EVERY DAY is enormous. You need to ensure your settings are done well to make it work the most reliably, but once you are set, you are gold!

Pros

  • Extracts bill details
  • Recognizes duplicate bills and lets you review and choose what you want to do with them
  • Transfers data to Xero quickly and without error

Cons

  • email documents do not always arrive in Dext. Sometimes i have to print and upload them.
  • credits, unless they are obvious can appear as charges
  • I would love to be able to pull the purchase order number into the transfer to Xero. An option to decide what I want to bring into Xero would be BRILLIANT!
  • Bookkeeping costs are WAY down, 50-60 bills per day can be entered in 5 minutes (or less) after a quick review, whereas entering manually in Xero would take a couple of hours.
  • Accuracy is so much better than manual entry as humans are simply human and make mistakes. Especially when you are dealing with volumes.
  • Easy to find bills that have been processed, viewing bills easily and tracking back to Xero if necessary. The link provided is exceptionally helpful
Once set up, that takes some time for the first month or so, it works without issue. You can easily make changes as suppliers change. It simply does what they say it will.
Dext is much easier to use than Hubdoc. You can approve documents in batches whereas in Hubdoc you need to review each document separately. Once Dext is set up properly, there is little need to review every document.

Hubdoc does have the ability to save documents to an external site, like Google docs as a backup.

Yes

Yes

Would you buy Dext again?

Yes

High volumes of bills process extraordinarily well!! I love to be able to send one PDF with 10 or 12 bills and it extracts each one.

Weird and one off stuff doesn't always work out too well, but can be dealt with on an case by case basis. Most weird stuff gets highlighted, yay!
