Performance of Brex Across Market Features

Brex Likes & Dislikes

It's very convenient to be able to create a virtual card for an expense category and pay with the Brex virtual card rather than out of pocket

seems easy enough to navigate; user management seems fairly automated

I like the comment thread within an item and the overall UX. It is intuitive and easy to navigate. This has made it easier to describe a given expense and to triage as needed.

It can be complex to manage many expense limits, there isn't as much flexibility with exceptions. Sometimes auto-fill from receipt image doesn't work properly and requires one to manually fill it in afterwards

The integration setup between HRIS and Brex was clunky

Having the ability to bump an item that has been sitting in the Submitted state for quite a while would be a nice feature
