Invoiced vs. Stampli

I think Invoiced is great for businesses that have recurring invoices or work with the same client over and over and you can store their payment. I don't see it as a great tool for businesses that only need to invoice one client at a time.

Stampli is best for a compony that has a large amount of payables. It stores everything in one place and reduces the need to keep paper copies of everything. It is less appropriate in a situation where payment is due at the time of services since it is sent via USPS mail and you have to take into account the mail processing times.

• Provides integrations with credit card companies and direct debit providers like GoCardless.
• Sales team does good demos, but be VERY careful because these demos may represent an unachievable scenario if you are a larger business or one that has more than the most basic, vanilla needs.
• Nothing else, all other experiences with Invoiced were negative.

• Learning - Billy the bot learns much quicker than our previous OCR.
• Global lookup - we have multiple entities which creates a challenge for finding invoices entered in the wrong place. Stampli has removed this issue.
• Maximizing manpower - reduces the need for more personnel.

Incentivized

• Difficult to see all missed/outstanding payments in one place
• Difficult to issue refunds

• It would be awesome if I was able to search for a vendor and check number for proof of payment
• When asking questions regarding invoices it is a little confusing on how to make the requested changes.
• Webinar on use of Stampli would be appreciated.

I cannot imagine going back to pre-Stampli processes. Our jobs in the Accounting department (not just AP) have all become more engaging because we've cut out so much mindless, non-value added work: data entry, signing checks, stuffing envelopes, stamping envelopes, etc.

A lot of checks and balances in the system that are an accountant's dream - just takes some time to understand the new process to get up to speed.

Never an issue with downtime

Very fast and no issues with the Sage Intacct integration

We have a dedicated rep (who was also our implementation rep--they stay with you after implementation) who we can email whenever needed and meet with every quarter. There is a chat option within the software that gets responded to by a real person within minutes.

Excellent documentation, step-by-step instructions

We lost an AP employee right as we were deciding to implement, so we had to speed up our timeline. We went from signing the contract to fully functional system within 4 weeks. We did not dedicate any more than 4 hours per week during the implementation.

We selected Invoiced primarily due to their purported high level of customizations and flexibility to handle differing business needs. That, unfortunately, became the exact reason we terminated the contract though. They have a basic framework for something that could be really great, and the potential is there, but they lack the in-house expertise and the product is far too infantile at present. Major bugs and similar issues need to be stamped out first. I can only hope they take it as a learning experience.

Stampli better suited our needs with the
infrastructure we have in place, met our international and workflow requirements, required minimal integration
set-up time without involving a 3rd party vendor, provided a
tailored implementation process, and offered an all-inclusive month-to-month
pricing structure.

Ease of deployment both domestic and international

• Allows us to easily track our ARs
• Allows us to keep track of past due ARs
• Automates our invoicing/matching with Quickbooks

Incentivized

• decreases manual process - balances out the benefit to cost ratio in automation vs employee time
• ACH payments allow for elimination of lost checks research and reprocessing
• Vendor portal connection putt he tools in their hands to research any status they may need instead of internal employee time to research and provide
