Rocketrip headquartered in New York offers their travel management platform, supporting budgeting, employee tracking and rewards, and comprehensive reporting.
We are currently in the process of planning our company wide retreat in which we need at least 69 people to book their flights. While with that many people traveling at once, I do suspect I'll get some questions and have to assist some folks however by using Lola.com, the time I would have spent prior will be cut drastically. And I'll be able to see who is taking what flight and obtain departure and arrival information without much interruption to anyone's day. Prior to Lola.com this task would have been something truly daunting, but not this time!
I traveled every Monday through Friday for six months to NYC. Hotels are mad expensive and Airbnb was previously not accepted as a suitable lodging option. Once my company implemented Rocketrip, I was able to not only save money by staying at Airbnb but I was also making a ton of money by saving my company money. I was able to find convenient and affordable lodging in NYC, which is seldom possible and was awarded for it! There really is no downside to Rocketrip and I'm amazed that more companies don't use it. For those who are always out to get SPG/Bonvoy/Hilton points, you are still able to do so!
Room for existing features to grow and expand, especially on the administrative side
Visually-speaking, the overall layout and color scheme used within the site, specifically when it comes to placement and contrast of key text info, has led to some confusion at times
Need for more support of existing travel rewards accounts
This is just my guess as I'm not involved in the decision aside from providing feedback on using Lola. I think, from what I've heard, that everyone likes Lola and we'll renew the usage. I say this because we're an all-remote company and this greatly solves the logistics of booking flights for everyone.
Lola is simple and straight to the point in regards to usability. I didn't have to figure things out and felt that the interface was intuitive. I loved it.
Lola's customer support is fantastic. They have frequently contacted us when there are travel alerts, or anticipated flight cancellations to re-book us before it was too late. They are always helpful and pleasant and we have never had any issues.
We haven't used or evaluated other travel management platforms because they always seemed geared towards larger, enterprise-level companies. For us, Lola.com was appealing because it seemed well suited to a company of our size, and we really loved the personal attention that is built in to the platform. Ultimately, we chose it for the reasonable price, functionality, ease of use, and excellent service.
Works Recipe scanning is simple. It allows you to easily track and manage your expenses. Automatic debit collection. Tax calculation and information are simple. Support for mobile applications. Expensify is a highly automated expense calculator that detects and computes all expenses stored in the system. There is no need to add a single transaction. It also allows you to edit data if you discover an incorrect transaction. Overall it was a great experience with Expensify but create glitches.
They have made travel cheaper, so that is a direct reflection to our customers and to us.
Customer Service just makes the stress of travel on our employees not so bad. Knowing we have someone to stand behind us while we travel goes a long way
