ApprovalMax has been transformative not only for our own operations but also in the accounts payable services we provide to clients.
Getting ApprovalMax up and running is quick and straightforward. With just a few clicks, it connects to Xero (and also integrates seamlessly with Netsuite, QuickBooks, and CIN7), allowing us to set up customised approval workflows. These workflows can be as simple or as complex as needed, accommodating multi-level approvals with ease.
Once configured, the system takes over, and approvers receive email notifications whenever a bill is awaiting approval. By importing budgets into Xero, approvers can immediately see the budget impact of each approval, a feature I find particularly useful for tracking expenses against budget in real-time.
When a bill is approved, ApprovalMax automatically attaches a full audit trail in Xero, greatly simplifying our interactions with auditors, especially for our not-for-profit clients.
With ApprovalMax, we’ve completely eliminated paper processes and gained oversight into pending approvals, enabling us to close month-end faster and more efficiently.
Whenever I’ve needed support, the ApprovalMax customer service team has been prompt, knowledgeable, and responsive, making the experience even smoother. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The Slack integration is great for being notified of new bills to approve. But unfortunately you still need to have email notifications turned on. I'm sure they'll fix this soon. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
We have been Xero Partners for a number of years, and have clients with supplier bill and expense approvals processes that range from simple to more complex, and with potentially more than a single authoriser required. ApprovalMax has helped simplify this approvals process - allows our clients to have visibility of what expenses are being incurred, and ensure the accounting treatment or tracking is correct, prior to it hitting the ledger. With the added bonus of supplier approval protocols in play, we know that fraud mitigations is occuring at all levels within the Accounts Payables Process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Not sure its a dislike, but it does make you think more strategically about how you manage expense approvals in your business. To gain the full benefit of AM, you need the team (from the business owner down), to be engaged with the product Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
ApprovalMax makes it very simple to manage all levels of complexities with regards to approvals. Not only can you manage multi-level user approval steps, but you can also set approval workflows based on accounts, classes, or locations that the transaction is allocated to or dollar thresholds. With the new receipt capture feature, it is simple to manage the complete bill and expense workflows automation with ease. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I would love to see some further development to support expense report approvals for employee reimbursements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I love the simplicity of the solution. It doesn't aim to be everything, but rather solves a key problem in business and covers a range of areas from purchase orders, supplier bills, sales invoices and more. The integration with Xero is also really easy to set up. Finally, the team are always available to support when we have issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It is hard to come up with many issues with the product. Perhaps my current issue is the new capture feature is not yet mature enough to replace our existing tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It's easy to use and to scale business processes using approvalMax
You can build processes that are as simple or complex as required, and the connections to xero, dext and other accounting packages make implementation nice and straightforward Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The receipt Capture is still new, I wouldn't say I dislike it, but it will be exciting to see how quickly that can develop as this could be huge for businesses on the larger softwares that don't have this functionality currently Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
ApprovalMax has completely disturbed our approval process making it difficult and cumbersome. The worst part is the workflows, which have made monitoring and managing approvals difficult. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
We are unable to ensure compliance. The integration, with our existing systems is is flawless consuming us time. With poor notifications everyone oes not stays in the loop decreaasing communication and transparency. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
A major perk of the system is the ease of setting up approval processes very simple and effective and easily integrated for notifications. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Approval max could use an improved layout and some updated features to help cross work flows if needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Good flexibility to create bespoke approval hierarchies based on value, department etc. Email notifications are very effective and make it easy to approve in a single click. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Doesn't seem to have much automation when it comes to input - for example auto-scanning of quotes or invoices for coding prior to approval request would be a great feature (similar to what expense claim systems such as Xero Expenses, Webexpenses, Expensify, Concur do now.
