    I think it's really good for small businesses. At least in the way we use it. It's very good for keeping an eye on employee spending in nearly real time. I'm not sure how it works for larger companies when there is a larger number of people to keep track of.

    My experience with Fidesic has been wonderful and it has helped to streamline our payables. We've been able to give our operations teams access in order for them to review their invoices instead of coming to the AP team to do the research.

    Cons
    Expensify
    • I wish that I could sync accounts on the back end kind of like with banking software, so that Expensify would automatically port over receipts for recurring expenses as soon as they're available
    • It would be nice to one-click submit an expense all the way through instead of having to attach it to a report
    • Wackier profile icons? :) Not a big deal. This software is pretty much amazing as it is now, and typically the urge to update and modify very good software leads to poor outcomes!

    • Would like to see ACH batches come across in the bank as separate transactions instead of one batch.
    • Would like to be able to filter on multiple columns instead of just searching by one selection.
    • Would like to be able to add our our ACH IDs vs having to submit them to be added.

    We like using the tool and we receive positive feedback from employees and management who use the tool. It saves time and helps us concentrate on the value adding activities so we are very likely to keep using Expensify in the future

    Usability
    Expensify
    My rating of 8 out of 10 for Expensify's overall usability reflects its strong performance in empowering individual users and streamlining core expense processes, while acknowledging that there are specific areas, particularly on the administrative or enterprise side, where the user experience could be further refined. Exceptional End-User Experience (for basic tasks).Automation & Time-Saving Features.Clear Workflow for Approvers. Why it's not a perfect 10 (areas for improvement that dock points): Limited corporate bank to choose from, limited multi-currency to pay to ( for instance, as a foreign corporatio,n i cannot pay with my US account to Israeli employees, or pay to our UK employees)

    Our rep has been amazing. He has built custom reports for us that have been very time consuming and difficult. Our reps are also currently looking into new submission solutions for us that we are excited about. They came up with this and recommended it on their own without me complaining about an issue. They are about our success and are very excited about the product they offer.

    Implementation Rating
    Expensify
    The implementation process went rather smoothly, linking it to the bank and cards was handled easily. without too many unnecessary steps. Getting the accounts setup did take some time, but that would be true with any organization. All in all things went smoothly and I was very pleased with the setup and implementation process

    It is definitely 10 times better than using an Excel spreadsheet. We are talking a digitized with AI type capabilities to do the work for you. It’s honestly a lifesaver. This beats manual calculations and data entry any day. Scanning 100 receipts and saving them to pdf files not only takes space on your storage but it is an extra unnecessary step

    PaperSave was a complete bust for us. Their OCR was terrible and never really worked. Their customer service was an abomination and we were hung up on by their trainer. GP just could not handle the volume of checks that we had and we were using a lot of MICR ink which became very expensive along with the amount of check stock we were using. Fidesic has streamlined all of that for us and allowed us to process bills and payments but not get bogged down in the stuffing of envelopes.

    Return on Investment
    Expensify
    • We went from paying credit card fees with no approval process to a no fees and complex approval processes.
    • I personally save time in not having to develop a spend report I just have my admin assistent fill in the details of the auto generated report and it is done. Went from an hour long process to 5- 10 minutes max to prepare a high quality audit ready report.

    • We have been able to implement ACH which cuts the costs of sending out checks
    • We have been able to send checks through them instead of stuffing 10k+ envelopes a month.
    • Questions to our staff have been cut in half.
