Pros & Cons
Brex
Pros
- The Essentials tier is free and includes cards, bill pay, reimbursements, travel booking, API access and accounting integrations.
- Card limits are underwritten on cash balance and revenue rather than a founder's personal guarantee, which helps startups without a credit history.
- Direct ERP syncs cover NetSuite, QuickBooks Online, Xero, Sage Intacct, Business Central and newer AI-native ERPs such as Rillet and Campfire, and a two-way Accounting API launched in January 2026.
- Brex holds SOC 1 Type II and SOC 2 Type II attestations, is PCI-DSS compliant and supports SAML or OIDC single sign-on.
- Brex releases updates often. The September 2026 release alone added more than 30 features, including passkeys, p-card policy rules and access to Brex data from ChatGPT, Claude and Slack.
- Pricing is published at 12 USD per user per month for Premium, and G2 reviewers rate the product highly, at about 4.8 out of 5.
Cons
- Brex has a history of abrupt account closures and eligibility changes, and it left the small-business market in 2022.
- Credit limits move with the company's cash balance, which some reviewers find unpredictable.
- Card purchases that need currency conversion carry an FX markup of up to 3 percent, built into the exchange rate.
- It is not a general ledger. Bookkeeping and financial statements still need a separate ERP or accounting system.
- Some support and setup experiences are poor, including a clunky HRIS integration setup reported on Gartner Peer Insights.
- The Capital One acquisition could slow feature shipping during integration, according to industry commentary.
Procountor
Pros
- No per-user fees: the company and its accounting office can add unlimited users at no charge.
- Seven packages let you start at 4 euros a month and move up as transaction volume grows.
- Payroll, purchase invoice approval and invoicing are all in one Finnish-compliant system.
- A documented REST API with OAuth2, webhooks and a free test environment, plus third-party connectors.
Cons
- Prices rise steeply between packages, from 82.90 euros for Basic to 344.90 euros for Plus.
- Every transaction counts as a voucher, so overage charges can add up quickly.
- Built mainly for the Finnish market, with very few independent English-language reviews.
- Contract and cancellation terms are not stated clearly on the pricing page.
