AI Generated Summary
AI-generated. Powered by real user reviews.
- G2 reviewers report that Brex excels in overall user satisfaction, reflected in its higher G2 Score, which indicates a more favorable experience compared to BigTime. Users appreciate Brex's ease of use and convenience, especially when traveling, highlighting features like the ability to upload receipts on the go.
- According to verified reviews, BigTime is praised for its intuitive interface, making tasks like weekly timesheets and expense reports straightforward. Users find the layout simple and easy to navigate, which is particularly beneficial for small businesses managing multiple projects.
- Reviewers mention that Brex offers a seamless setup process, with many noting that the initial onboarding was quick and efficient. This contrasts with some feedback for BigTime, where users have experienced challenges in configuration, indicating that Brex may be a better choice for those prioritizing a hassle-free implementation.
- Users say that Brex's support quality is consistently high, with many highlighting the responsive customer service that enhances their overall experience. In comparison, while BigTime also receives positive remarks for its support, it does not match the level of satisfaction reported by Brex users.
- Reviewers highlight that Brex's advanced features, such as bank and credit card integration, are superior, making it easier for users to manage their finances. BigTime, while functional, has received lower ratings in this area, suggesting that users may find Brex more capable for comprehensive expense management.
- According to recent feedback, both platforms have their strengths, but Brex stands out with its robust mobile support and features tailored for small to medium-sized enterprises. Users appreciate the convenience of managing expenses on the go, while BigTime's strengths lie in its project management capabilities, making it a solid choice for businesses focused on tracking time and resources.
