Dext

Buy it

Kommentare: Dext takes away a lot of pain in terms of administration and time, it also keeps my invoices & receipts digitally and gives me an overall view of my outgoings for any set period, excellent product

Vorteile:

In short as a small business owner Dext saves me the most precious commodity it can, my time. It allows myself and my team to take a simple picture of a receipt or uplad an invoice and the data is extracted and pushed across to my Xero accounting system. Works very well indeed including multiple currencies

Nachteile:

Like any OCR extraction it is not perfect but what I would like to see is better notifications of failures for duplication etc, I would like unsuccessful uploads to be easier to identify and resolve

Dext is perfect for small startups

Kommentare: To be perfectly honest, it was 'fair' at best, we had a good run but outgrew the cost which became very exorbitant after the last company buyout
Really poor customer support options, don't expect a reply for up to a week. Not good when you have to pay your workers and nothing functioning.

Vorteile:

Dext has a potentially daunting array of choice at first setup, the beauty is you can just leave sit what you do not need until you need it. Our staff used the software with ease and were able to confirm 90% of the time, to the required use of the software making it less time consuming to chase receipts. It is simple to use and allows multiple levels of authorisation. Scales slightly to cost for small business. They do offer discounts to NFP/RC organisations. Compliant with ATO tax reporting requirements. Fully customisable categories table.

Nachteile:

Technical support were good, but not great, often the replies were cryptic or were minimalist, often resulting in confusion from them or us. Not a solution once you go over the affordable tier of 80 employees, there are then much better solutions out there. Some limitations in the software framework, but nothing crippling. No training option for staff, assumed you will do that.

Very Difficult To Cancel Your Subscription

Vorteile:

Unfortunately, my experience with canceling my Dext subscription has over shadowed any good feelings that I had about this company and program. The owner of the subscription should have full control of canceling the membership.

Nachteile:

Canceling your subscription with Dext is nearly impossible. You can't cancel from your own account login. You have to reach out to your account manager and make an appointment. Appointment times are 3 weeks out. Once you do talk to them, you discover that there is a 30 day notice policy to cancel which is also not posted on your account. There are not pro-rated refunds of subscription fees. In my opinion this is very unprofessional on their part. I should have a way to cancel my subscription from my end.

Review For Dext Prepare

Kommentare: Overall, Dext Prepare has been an invaluable tool for optimizing our financial workflows and enhancing productivity.

Vorteile:

The autopublishing feature, combined with the streamlined supplier rules, has made our dexting process significantly easier and more efficient. The automation reduces manual entry errors and saves us valuable time, allowaing us to focus on more strategic tasks.

Nachteile:

When amounts are extracted and published in Xero, the tax details sometimes VAT- re not captured correctly.

Highly useful management platform for multiple companies

Kommentare: Big process improvement! When I started, we had multiple individual accounts set up instead of a single account housing each client entity, so once we took that consolidation step, everything fell into place & the workflow started to churn without incident. Few to no issues with receiving documents from outside the org, the OCR is fairly capable, and the platform learns quickly & suggests supplier rules to set for item types with regular throughput.

Vorteile:

It works exactly as advertised & is user-friendly enough that setup is simple & intuitive. There is a wide array of features on this platform, but everything is labeled & explained well, so while there is introductory training & ongoing self-support material, you often don't need it once you get going because the platform largely guides you toward whatever it is you want to do (which makes training new staff fairly easy).

Nachteile:

The integrations can occasionally be a bit wonky--less so the accounting software integrations than vendors & bank accounts. I've had a few issues with bank accounts coming regularly decoupled, or with vendor accounts not connecting despite the credentials being validated. The lists for each integration option are also limited, so if you're using a smaller community bank or an industry-specific vendor, you may just be out of luck.

My favour piece of software

Kommentare: Love it. It’s so good that we were offered another provider as part of an existing subscription but I don’t want to change. I’d rather pay Dext and keep using it.

Vorteile:

This software is amazing. We are a wholesaler with loads of monthly invoices from suppliers and out to customers. Dext strips all the information out in seconds, is so accurate and then can get seamlessly transferred to Sage. Considering the time this software saves us, the price is brilliant too. I already recommend this software to anyone I think would benefit.

Nachteile:

No downsides. This software literally does everything I need it for.

Great automated solution for keeping track of expenses

Kommentare: Excellent tool for automating data entry for my expenses

Vorteile:

Great automated solution for keeping track of expenses - It integrates with our bookkeeping system Quickbooks. - It automates the data entry tasks - Easy to use - Good price point

Nachteile:

It didn't integrate with all accounting systems, so I did have to switch to Quickbooks in order to use Dext as my old system was not compatible

Dext is how receipt softwares should work

This app works great. Very easy to use for the person taking photos of receipts and the person recording the receipts. Overall we are very happy. Only thing that could be better is the price

Nothing as its a seamless product you can use on your phone, just take a picture of your receipt and send

Dext Review

Dext Prepare is Essential

Kommentare: Dext Prepare has been great to work with and is easy for my clients to use.

Nachteile:

Need a way for expense reports to be signed off on. I have clients who need to have expense reports authorized.

The Smart Way to Manage Your Accounting: Dext Prepare Review

Kommentare: As one of the sales and marketing staff. I used to manually enter data, manage bank statements, receipts, and invoices, and transfer data to my accounting firm before Dext Prepare. However, I am now able to automate and streamline the entire pre-accounting procedure with Dext Prepare, allowing me more time for higher-value tasks and business development.Eliminating mistakes and oversights made by hand is one of the most significant issues that Dext Prepare has solved for me. The software's optical character recognition (OCR) AI technology, which is 99 percent accurate, ensures that all of my data is current and accurate. While processing data, I am also able to abide by the Data Protection Regulation (RGPD), giving me peace of mind that my financial information is safe.Dext Prepare has provided me with an exceptional overall experience. I've been able to save money, time, and effort while keeping things simple for my accountant thanks to the software's ease of use and effectiveness.

Vorteile:

Company's finances has been completely transformed by Dext Prepare. I don't have to spend countless hours manually entering data to keep track of my finances because of its powerful automation and real-time monitoring features. Because the software's text recognition algorithm is so precise, it was simple for me to extract all of the essential information from my bank statements, invoices, and receipts.Dext Prepare's ability to integrate with my existing accounting ecosystem, which enables me to transfer data with a few easy clicks, is yet another great feature. The software's user interface is also very easy to understand and use, making it accessible to anyone, even to people who don't know much about technology.In general, managing finances with Dext Prepare has saved me a significant amount of time and effort. It is essential for any proprietor of a business who wishes to streamline their accounting procedures and concentrate on expanding their enterprise. Anyone looking for a pre-accounting solution that is both effective and user-friendly should look no further than Dext Prepare.

Nachteile:

Dext Prepare is a great way to automate and streamline the pre-accounting process, but i say it lacks some features that other accounting software solutions have. Nevertheless, it is essential to keep in mind that Dext Prepare was developed solely for the purpose of pre-accounting and is not intended to take the place of a full-featured accounting system.The cost of Dext Prepare, which may be prohibitive for individuals or small businesses depending on their requirements and financial resources, is another potential drawback. However, the time-saving advantages of the software may eventually offset the cost for some businesses.In conclusion, despite the fact that Dext Prepare may not have all of the features of other accounting software solutions and may be pricey for some users, the pre-accounting automation and time savings it provides are still significant. As a whole, it's a wise investment for businesses that want to make their accounting procedures more efficient.

Super easy invoice management

Kommentare: Generally speaking I find Dext extremely easy to use. It integrates perfectly with my accounting software and makes paperwork much less stressful

Vorteile:

Using the app, I can easily add invoices to Dext and then edit them before publishing into my payroll software. Invoices are stored so I cab refer back if I need information in the future

Nachteile:

I can't access all features through the app and have to use the desktop version

Dext doesn’t tell the truth - won’t upgrade my lower level subscription. They expect me to pay twice

Kommentare: I wasn’t asking for anything more than what the average person would receive for their price. Why offer a terrible product that you don’t even advertise, that has almost the identical name to the next level product? I feel utterly duped.

Vorteile:

I feel so disheartened by Dext & Google Play! They offered me a discount (without refunding my original purchase), yet they didn’t offer to only charge the difference between what I’d already paid and the next subscription level. WHY???

Nachteile:

I mistakenly subscribed to Dext’s “Business Plan” through the Dext app. I couldn’t figure out why it didn’t function like it was supposed to. Once I figured out that it was called “Business” and not “Business Plus” I realized I must have subscribed to something different…I didn’t know they offered anything different from their website. I contacted Dext right away and told them I want to upgrade (or refund to upgrade on my own). They told me Google Play can refund this. I communicated with Google Play. They said, “We can’t do this, only the app developer can. I asked, “How do I communicate with the app developer?” They gave me the same email address that I previously used to communicate with Dext. I went back and forth many times (over the course of a month) communicating with Google Play and Dext; both telling me the other can help me. In the end, Dext offered to cancel my current subscription (but I wouldn’t get a refund) and then they’d give me 20% off a new subscription. Dext is EXPENSIVE and now I have to pay double, when I asked to be upgraded (or refunded) right after I bought it. WHO is lying to me? In the end, Dext simply closed the case on me instead of offering me the upgraded subscription for the price difference. UNBELIEVABLE! Dext told me that I hadn’t heard of this lower level subscription because they got rid of it as it wasn’t popular, but that Google Play kept it.

Great data extraction software for clients willing to pay premium for a premium product

Kommentare: Excellent premium software for data extraction

Vorteile:

The data extraction worked great and the ability to also automatically mark payments to bills is also a timesaver. The ability to post multicurrency bills is a great feature.

Nachteile:

It took quite a while to have everything set up, sometimes the data extraction did not work for an unknown reason. Does not work for extracting data from bank statements.

A must-have product for your book management

Kommentare: Receipt bank is a great tool for business owners and accountants. It archives the supports on the cloud. Therefore, when it comes to an audit, the support could be easily pulled.

Vorteile:

Receipt Bank is easy to track bills and receipts and useful to publish into accounting software. Also, Receipt Bank could assign different roles among users, which saves time for review and approval of reimbursable expenses. Last but not least, it keeps adding features like bank statement fetch, which creates efficiency for bank reconciliation.

Nachteile:

If bills or receipts are denominated in foreign currency, the exchange rate used by Receipt Bank is different from that by Accounting Software. To have a consistent rate across the book, we have to manually refresh the bill date to have a consistent exchange rate.

Overall superb

Vorteile:

The accuracy really is superb! It is amazingly how accurately it gets the information required from what is often messy, crumpled or poor quality receipts

Nachteile:

The main criticism is that I need a totally separate account per business. Would be better to handle multiples from one login. Also seems bonkers to have to pay extra for more users, has no bearing on the required server time or functionality's...eg zero benefits to just sharing a login .so to charge for it seems wrong. Lastly, the GUI could be modernized slightly

Receipt Bank Does Not Work

Kommentare: A total waste of time and money.
Not worth it.
Pointless.

Vorteile:

Receipt Bank promised a lot and delivered extremely poor service. It simply did not do what it said it would do.

Nachteile:

It combines multiple receipts into one entry, entirely in error. It fails to recognise the currency of the receipt. It mis-reads the receipts - inputting incorrect numbers and names. It corrupts easily, locking a lot of entries inside the app but unable to generate a spreadsheet. There is no way to extract the data from the corrupted app, so you have no choice but to enter all the data again or create your own spreadsheet and enter it there. In all Receipt Bank was a complete waste of money and an enormous waste of my time. I strongly recommend anyone against buying Receipt Bank. It is easier to create an excel document of your own which you can run on your phone. If you want to you can add in drop-down menus to make data entry quick and easy. That is much easier than trying to mess around with the grossly faulty Receipt Bank app.

Receipt Bank review

Kommentare: the ability to upload your bills, receipts, invoices and bank statements from your phone makes it easy to work even out of office. This can be integrated into your accounting software that you use seamlesly without any hussles.

Vorteile:

you can use it for free and very easy to use when extracting data that you require and it is a very good fit small businesses and you can do your work at home on your fone, laptop through your email and integrate when you are at work

Nachteile:

It may be costly in the long run if amount of transactions increases with the growing of the business as the cost is related to amount of transactions that you undertake

Time saver

Vorteile:

Absolutely love the way it can OCR, use rules I set up, and then export the data to QBO

Nachteile:

Handling of taxes... while it reads the tax amount, we in BC have a challenge with it seperating our PST and GST amounts. (But the promise a fix is coming).

Essential in tracking staff expenses / billable expenses!

Vorteile:

Its a single location to store invoices and track expenses outside of the accounting software.

Nachteile:

Importing expenses into quick books often times creates a new vendor. I then need to go in QBO and move it to the vendor.

A Great tool to keep all invoices in one place

Vorteile:

A great tool to keep all invoices in one place, I hardly imagine how I could work if that soft would be not available for me.

Nachteile:

The tool itself sometimes has issues reading excel files.

Paperless makes everything better

Kommentare: Overall, this product has brought our company leaps forward in technology. No more power invoices and receipts and the best thing is it can be done from anywhere!

Vorteile:

We moved to Dext Prepare from a manual System of printing invoices and submitting them. Now with Dext, everything is done online and it’s easier for accounting and employees alike.

Nachteile:

For employees, some of the features are confusing. There are submit buttons and archive buttons that make it look like you should push them but really you don’t need to and it messes up the accountant if you do. As long as everyone knows this, it isn’t an issue but education is key.

DEXT

Kommentare: Besides the extreme inconsistency with their pricing model, the products works and provides for time savings

Vorteile:

Dext is a great software to eliminate the need for keystrokes to enter data into accounting software.

Nachteile:

The system can often be a bit temperamental and extract the incorrect information from the source document.

It keeps getting better

Kommentare: really happy with the time savings.

Vorteile:

The company is really responsive to improving the product. Simplifies the Accounts Payable Process and saves a lot of time.

Nachteile:

sometimes AI picks up the wrong supplier and you need to be alert to this especially for autopublish suppliers.
