Lightyear delivers, and then some. I have found the accuracy of the data extraction and multi-level approval rules have significantly reduced manual processing costs.
The Lightyear team are fantastic to deal with - knowledgeable and patient. They are more than a supplier. They are an invaluable and trusted business partner, who have the best interest of our businesses to heart.
With more than one million Bills processed, Lightyear continues to be an invaluable addition to Abcom’s suite of business applications.
We reviewed a number of AP apps, and Lightyear was by far and away the best. Their sign-off functionality for managers is unique to all the apps we surveyed. Love it!
Lightyear has an easy to use interface, eliminating data-entry and facilitating better business processes around the accounts payable function.
The software itself is very user friendly, making our processes much more efficient and eliminating our need for paper in the accounts payable process.
I love that all my actions can be done in one place - Lightyear stores/archives all information received and makes searching it a breeze.
Hundreds of our McDonalds clients are using Lightyear - It's great for speeding up the entry of bills and supporting separate bill authorisation.
Lightyear is such an easy platform to use, it saves heaps of your time and every invoice is at your finger tips. The support team is awesome and you never have to wait more than a minute to speak/online chat to someone for advice or help.
Saves so much time. It is so easy to use, and the staff friendly and knowledgeable. It was very easy to train our farm managers to use. We love it!
Lightyear allows us to easily manage the accounts payable process across our entire client base. The parent dashboard gives great visibility across them all.
I've been using Lightyear for a few years for larger clients and have just recently transitioned my smaller clients across. Regardless of the size of business, Lightyear provides great efficiencies.
