The Amtrav system also provides convenient integration with our Travel and Expenses application. We can import the details of each hotel stay, airline and or train ticket with the dates and costs associated.

Likelihood to Recommend
Amtrav provides adequate usefulness for booking trips for business travel. Does not offer ways to book from alternative sources like Turo or AirBnB, I've found. It is best suited for business travel scenarios that utilize existing basic institutions for hotel, air and ground travel. It is less suited for times when you need more options and flexibility in the choice of a travel provider, in my opinion.

Our company is fully remote and we travel several times per year to get together. We use Amtrav to book flights for travel to these company conferences. Using Amtrav allows each employee to book their own flight, pay for flights with the company card, and make any additions or changes that are behind the scope of the company budget on their own personal payment method.
Pros
Comparing available flights
Purchasing flights
Customer service
Cons
Cancelled flight was automatically rebooked without notification email sent

Amtrav is great for corporate travel for organizations with over 100-150 employees. I think it’s a very useful primarily self serve tool that gives employees autonomous choices about their travel arrangements. This would likely be a less appropriate solution for a very small company. I’m not sure if a very large company would find the tool scalable. For 500-1000 employees, it’s great.

AmTrav is our travel booking and logistics platform. It's used by any and all departments that need to book travel for work -- whether for themselves or others. It allows our teams to be assured that their travel is taken care of through a central platform that connects to our expensing platform.
Pros
Excellent user interface.
Competitive booking rates that allow users a variety of options.
Phenomenal customer service.
Cons
Filtering flights by average on-time reliability is not available.
Permissions can be tricky for approvers. It's not always easy to see what your team is doing.
Google Calendar integration is flawed -- it keeps adding events for time you've approved but does not signify who the travel is for.

AmTrav has enabled users to handle travel themselves very easily and directly. Prior to AmTrav, we had our HR department also focused on travel booking and travel management. Now, through a set of policies and approval permissions, managers and employees can directly book flights without the need to engage another team.
