Emburse Chrome River vs. Fyle

Chrome River in my experience is suited to the employees being more independent when completing their reports, due to the extensive questions and steps. This allows us (the reviewers) to come in and assist the employees more efficiently. I think it fits well with out needs and easy to help our employees

A business/individual can definitely opt Fyle for their expense tracking and management. In a remote-first, employee first world, it's vital for companies to stay close to employees and make it easier for employees/users to claim reimbursements etc. A cloud software like Fyle is all you need to get started. What more do you need than a robust app that has seen over 50 million dollars being reimbursed to date? While this is the positive use case of Fyle, I think another major use case would be to monitor and track expenses made by employees. It'll help finance teams to see policy violations, make sure the claims are authentic, and reimburse only valid claims. It's intelligent in that way.

• Would be great to have pre-saved templates available to apply to line items at the expense report header level rather than having to go into each line.
• Would be nice to have a mass upload functionality for things like cost codes, allocations, and credit card users.

• Ability to upload multiple bills at once. The file upload option as of now allows only one file to be uploaded at a time

Chrome River is easy to use. We needed little training for our users and instead pointed them to Chrome River's Help Guides which are clearly written and easy to understand. With tools SNAP and the ability to email receipts means we can be completely remote when submitting reports.

I would rate Chrome River Expense a 10 because, as I mentioned before, it is very simple and easy to use. This is important from an administrative point-of-view as well as for the field employee. Being a general contractor, it makes it all the better for our employees to use a program that is easy to understand and requires little time and effort. It has made tracking expenses very simple and has been well received by the entire company.

I cannot tell you how relieved we were when utilizing Chrome River support in comparison to other Enterprise level software support centers. Tickets were quick and representatives were swift in [their callbacks] and resolutions to our common and most difficult problems. The team there is professional and makes each new support ticket a breeze.

The software is very user friendly, so the online training was easy to pickup for everyone.

Before implementation begins, make sure you have a plan on how you would like your workflow and platform setup for a system like Chrome River. It will speed the process and eliminate the need to make changes when you go live.

The overall user interface was easy to use and it made the task of the reporting very easy. Compliance rules are guiding the users to correctly upload and enter receipts, which are already uploaded and recognized via OCR during the business trip. Uploading can easily done via APP, mail or receipt gallery. There is no need for storing paper. Chrome River is supporting digital archiving

Features wise both Zoho and Concur are equivalent to Fyle - may be they even offer more features. We picked Fyle particularly because: a) We are a small organization of less than 200 employees and were looking for a cloud based offering b) We had to keep our costs minimal without making major changes to our organization structure Fyle was most optimal that catered to all our requirements.

It's very easy software to design to your needs.
