Pros

“Push for a senior implementation team, realistic timelines, and detailed answers about vendor migration, reporting, expenses, AMEX approvals, and invoice review processes before signing.”
MC

Maira C.

Accounting Manager

“The bulk invoice importing and payment batching features save us so much time, and knowing that payments will come from the correct currency account has eliminated a lot of guesswork and potential mistakes.”

Fan W.

Accouting Manager

“She also connects us directly with Tipalti’s engineers to explain what a large credit union actually needs, which has helped the development team better understand our compliance and accounting requirements.”

Pros

“Integration into our contingency management solution was straighforward”
KC

Kathy C.

VP Customer Oeprations

“They are a match made in heaven and integrate together pretty seamlessly. ”
BS

Brian S.

Director of Administration

“They work fast which saves our drivers time and the company money.”
KY

Kari Y.

Office Manager

Cons

“The AP bill processng page can be a bit cumbersome, as it requires multiple clicks and some back-and-forth navigation to upload information for PO versus non-PO items.”
DM

Denise M.

Staff Accountant

“The system only allows one designated approver per person. If that person is unavailable, the only option is to upload a new employee sheet, which is inefficient.”
MC

Maira C.

Accounting Manager

“Our process requires AP to verify coding and GL accuracy first, and Tipalti does not support that structure natively.”
