According to the report, “AvidXchange received one of the highest customer ratings among IDC’s survey of end users.” High marks were attributed to live, hands-on services groups dedicated to ensuring customer success after go-live, setting AvidXchange apart in its ability to provide a comprehensive support experience to middle market businesses.
