Comparing bookkeeping platforms? Compare the corrections.

Capturing a document is the easy part. What separates one platform from another is the state of the data that reaches the accounting software you already use, how much of the workflow it covers, and how quickly you can get help when something needs fixing. Here is how Dext compares.

Frequently asked questions comparing Dext

Four things decide it. How accurate the data is before it reaches the ledger. How much of the workflow is covered, from capture and processing through to approvals, expenses and payments. How well it connects to the accounting software you already use. And what happens when you need help. Dext is built to answer all four in one place.

Dext turns invoices, receipts and bank statements into structured data with over 99% accuracy, so mistakes are caught before they reach your accounting software rather than at year-end. Supplier rules, duplicate detection and auto-publishing handle the repetitive work around it, and nothing is published without your review.

Price is the easiest thing to compare and rarely the thing that settles it. The figure that matters is the time returned: hours that were going on chasing documents, correcting categorisation and re-checking the numbers, and the capacity that frees up. Run both over a month and compare that, not the subscription line.

Invoices, receipts, supplier statements, bank statements and mileage claims, captured by mobile, email, WhatsApp or desktop. Dext connects with 36+ accounting software platforms, including Xero, QuickBooks, Sage and FreeAgent, plus 11,500+ banks and e-commerce platforms.

Duplicate detection, a complete audit trail and over 99% extraction accuracy catch double payments, misposted transactions and VAT errors while they are still cheap to fix. At volume, that is the difference between a correction and a compounding problem.
