Your CPA will love you." — 5.0/5 > **Nathan** | *04 March 2026* | Consumer Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I absolutely love Dext. I’m a solo entrepreneur that gets busy and it’s easy to get unorganized with receipts. This program allows me to not only upload receipts and have its vendor, cost and account extracted then published to my QuickBooks account. You can also add that it’s billable to a client in QuickBooks and holds the photos so you don’t have to keep paper receipts. > > **Cons**: This program is solid. It learns from your previous expenses and automatically knows vendors and account categories. I couldn’t live without it. > > Im ensured I don’t miss expenses for clients and also deductions in my QuickBooks account. I can take a picture of a receipt or forward it from an email. ----- ### "Dext is the best\!" — 5.0/5 > **amy** | *30 March 2026* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 3.0/10 > > **Pros**: Dext is constantly evolving and getting better and it gets it right so you can trust it to do the leg work\! Love the new prepayment feature\! > > **Cons**: Menu’s are a little complicated to remember where things are and the settings could be streamlined to save time\! > > I love dext and wouldn't use anything else for receipt processing, it saves time and its always accurate. ----- ### "Worth it, use Dext\!" — 5.0/5 > **Chloe** | *07 June 2026* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Dext helps me with all my daily bookkeeping needs. It integrates into the appropriate softwares I use perfectly > > **Cons**: Honestly I don’t dislike anything about Dext. I use Dext prepare and the only thing it could build in is that it could assume categories better upon the first step of integration with the accounting softwares chart of accounts. > > Dext has saved me many hours of manual input for invoices into accounting softwares. The price isn’t the worst either. ----- ### "Non-Existent Customer Service" — 1.0/5 > **Erin-Dawn** | *30 September 2025* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 2.0/10 > > **Pros**: I have had a terrible time getting in touch with Dext Customer Service. While the software served it's purpose for many years I no longer have use for it. They have made it impossible to cancel the service and have just charged my credit card again. Totally shameful. The chat keeps telling me someone will be in touch but no one is. I will no longer be recommending it to clients. > > **Cons**: Customer Service was basically non-existent. They message you back letting you know someone will be in touch to help you. It has been well over a week and I have heard nothing. ----- Page: 1 / 8\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.co.za/software/160189/dext?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.co.za/software/160189/dext) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
