"A game-changer for invoice processing and approvals"
What do you like best about Lightyear?

Lightyear has dramatically sped up our accounts payable processing by automating what was previously a very manual task. The ability to set up departmental approval processes has been a big win—everything is consistent, structured, and easy for staff to follow. The platform is also very user-friendly, making it simple to train new team members. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lightyear?

Initially, getting your head around the process takes a little time, but with training and practice it becomes straightforward and easy to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Lightyear?

Approvals automation and consistency. Plus the great back-end services and support provided by the Lightyears team. It very user friendly and makes AP automation so easy especially when you have so many supplier invoices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lightyear?

Bulk imports of contacts, users or items would be great from the user end - but the support and specialized team always listens to enquires and requests and move things around to make bulk imports actioned on their end. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Fantastic platform"
What do you like best about Lightyear?

I absolutely love using Lightyear. It makes my AP role much easier and faster. The customer support is fantastic, the features are valuable and they introduce new ones all the time to streamline or to make improvements on existing features. The MYOB integration is very easy and you can have as many users and departments as you need. I use it every day. The best feature is it can read all types of invoices, not just PDF's.

Would be great if you could import historical invoices in larger batches then 50 - bulk csv etc would be fantastic. So you can retain historical invoice information when you cutover systems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A Real Time Saver"
What do you like best about Lightyear?

We had alot of missed invoices, bad data and payments just not making there way to the supplier. Lightyear automated the this side of our business and saved us a tonne of time, reducing data entry and ultimatly increasing accuracy and speed with AP. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lightyear?

not much.. i think maybe if could show some more snippets in a dashboard for a quick overview, but i guess all the infomation is availalbe in the reports anyway. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great Product. Great Team."
What do you like best about Lightyear?

Lightyear saves us so much time. The volume of invoices we process daily can be quite large and the time that took to process individually in Xero was turning into a full time job. We had tried a similar app before but found it wasn't saving much time and we still required to input a lot of data. A huge benefit is not only do invoices need little handling from the team now but also anyone can pick these up, it's so easy to see what stage an invoice is at and it can be moved along by any of the team. The approval process is great, saves us lots of time chasing staff and I've had very good feedback from managers of how much easier they find approving invoices on LY compared to emails. I can also see Lightyear has so much more to offer than how we are currently using it and will definitely be looking into what more we can do. Lastly, the support from the Lightyear team has been exceptional and made the whole process so much easier. They’re continuingly looking for ways to help us and make everything smoother. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Lightyear?

Honestly, nothing yet. It does exactly what it says on the tin and we've had next to no issues. Any issues we've had has only been something which we were still learning about and could be fixed with the help of the support team. If I had to input an answer though, not being able to overwrite VAT. Sometimes there's a difference due to rounding and a manual adjustment similar to Xero would be easier than the auto rounding.
