What should you ask AvidXchange about?

If you’re comparing Stampli versus AvidXchange, here are a few questions you should ask AvidXchange.

Do you have to manually export invoices to your ERP?

AvidXchange requires manual batch exports of approved invoices and doesn’t automatically sync payment statuses with your ERP, creating extra work and potential for errors.

Stampli provides real-time, bi-directional syncing with your ERP. Approved invoices and payment statuses update automatically, eliminating manual work and reducing errors.

Can you choose your preferred payment methods for each vendor?

AvidXchange restricts vendor payment preferences, forcing standardized payment methods that can strain vendor relationships and complicate your payment processes.

Stampli gives you the autonomy to pay vendors their way. Our flexible payment options accommodate each vendor’s preferences, strengthening relationships and streamlining payments.

Generally how long does it take to process invoices?

AvidXchange takes up to a few days for invoice capture and processing, causing payment delays, missed early payment discounts, and cash flow uncertainty.

Stampli’s AI captures and processes invoices in real-time, enabling immediate coding and routing. It continually improves as it trains on $50B+ invoices from more than a million vendors yearly.

Can you communicate with vendors directly in the platform?

Stampli’s integrated vendor communication system keeps all interactions within the platform, maintaining a complete audit trail and streamlining vendor relationships.

Is there a possibility of system downtime or syncing issues?

AvidXchange customers report persistent system downtime and syncing problems, leading to errors, data integrity issues, and lost productivity.
