Overall Satisfaction with Expensify

Having used numerous expense apps, including 'market leaders' and home grown solutions, I can confirm that Expensify is by far the best I have used yet! Submitting receipts is quick and painless, using either the built in camera feature, uploading images or simply emailing attachments to the mailbox (from any registered email account). Having Expensify automatically scan receipts to extract vendor information, price, tax etc, as well as the ability to set up automatic coding, that learns, means I don't have to worry when it comes to the end of the week - I just need to review any validation warnings and submit the report. Expensify even provides an automatic submission service for validated reports, should I forget to submit manually.

Pros

  • Automatically extract details from receipts
  • Built in camera feature, file upload and email capture
  • Auto-coding and auto-validation
  • Automatically submit expense reports should I forget to do it manually

Cons

  • Web app on mobile screens is not ideal. Mobile app is great though!
  • Link up with travel vendors and hotels etc to provide booking services as well
  • Improve the ability to create return trips for mileage claims
  • Reduced time validating expenses
  • Better visibility of employee expenses, due to more frequent submissions
Some slight improvements in specific areas would benefit, but generally very good UX.
Improvements around mileage claims might help, but still one of the best systems i've used for this.
Uncomplicated
Great UX
Brilliant comms
Useful automations

Do you think Expensify delivers good value for the price?

Not sure

Are you happy with Expensify's feature set?

Yes

Did Expensify live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Expensify go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy Expensify again?

Yes

Business travel. Don't bother keeping pockets full of receipts or loosing track of booking confirmations, just snap them and/or email them into Expensify and let Expensify do the initial extraction and coding.
It will then remind you later in the week that you have some expenses to submit, if you need the reminder.
