About Expensify

Expensify works as a cloud-based business accounting system that is designed to manage expenses and transactions using real-time data processing. The platform allows businesses to maintain different summaries of various accounts along with date calendars to keep track and maintain transparency. Expensify effectively uses different ratios, including debt-to-income ratios, to maintain a healthy balance. The powerful tools on it help track travel expenses by calculating the amount of time spent by a user on a particular project or by calculating the miles that personnel has traveled. For international travel, the system easily converts currencies and provides accurate records by using purchase receipt photos or copies. In addition, automating the entire expense calculation process can save time and physical resources. It automatically integrates the application with financial institutions and credit cards processors to avoid manual data entry. Compatible with all Android and iOS devices.

This software is the best in its category.

Pros

We have been using Expensify for a long time and syncing it with different systems, including Workday and Netsuite. Expensify allows us to customize our policies to include custom fields from Netsuite which is a good feature. The approval workflow is straightforward and user-friendly, and the best part is that it doesn't require any training. Approvers can easily review expense reports with receipts attached to expenses. We reviewed other competitors' software and found them either expensive or not up to par. However, Expensify is a true value for money.

Cons

So far no complaints and it serves the purpose.

Expensify my chaos

Overall it is a great fit for small businesses that use it to scan and save expenses while giving a good reporting tool so you can review your spend. I would recommend it for owner managers or small teams that also have a gestor or just to streamline your administrative accounting or bookkeeping experience. Oh and it integrates with other programs too.

Pros

Ease of use and ability to finally organise my receipts in time for the gestor. I didn’t have to presort them as they are saved and retrievable digitally by category or date or supplier. I liked that I could just email a bunch of receipts off at the same time to Expensify and they would upload all the receipts later ready for me to check and categorise and of course it remembers categories so you can save on time doing that too.

Cons

If anything the time to upload a receipt manually could be improved. I wasn’t sure if I had done it correctly or not the first few times I tried and it sort of felt a bit clunky. This was from my iPhone XR though so not sure if it’s a better experience on android.

Expensify: The Go-To App for Hassle-Free Expense Tracking

Overall experience with Expensify has been pleasant. Its so easy to use and reimbursement goes directly to my bank. SmartScan saves me a lot of time on a daily basis. The process from submitting expense to receiving reimbursements feels very smooth. What sets this app apart from other application is that expenses are tracked and processed almost instantly giving me a clear picture of spending at any moment.

Pros

Nothing can beat the "Snap and Go" feature of this app. I can just take a photo of the receipt and expensify automatically extracts all the expense data. Another feature i liked about this app is that it gives me expense report automatically (once its sent for reimbursement, after its approved and after i get reimbursed). Expensify reimburse me directly to my bank account and its mobile friendly as well.

Cons

SmartScan is a great feature Expensify has but its not perfect. Sometime it gives error while scanning which can be pain. And its also a offline app.
Other than these two, this app is second to none in this category of application (Expense management category).

Fantastic product Expensify

Overall it's amazing products to check the expenses and reimbursement of that from the authorities.

Pros

We can easily track the record of expenses and find out particular person with whom those expenses are paid.Attachments are also very easily uploaded.

Cons

Everything is amazing about product. One thing which i feel that is not good for product is anyone can see the expense on the portal u just need id and password.

Pros

Perfect Tool to track expenses

Expensify is the right tool if you want a simple yet effective tool to keep a trace of your expenses and receipts. It's very useful for professional and personal use.

Pros

I've been using Expensify for many years now to keep track of my monthly expenses and get a full and proper report for our accountant. Expensify offers few but essential options, even with the free version. You upload receipts from your cellphone, get them scanned and their information automatically filled within Expensify. The reports are clear and complete. Overall, it does exactly what you would expect from such a tool.

Cons

Some options are "hidden" and not easy to find in the first place, making the tool acting strangely. For example, last year, at some point, without doing anything on my part, my reports were automatically closed and sent to my manager before they were completed. I had to go and change the settings in a part of the options I've never used/seen before. After that, all was good though.

Pros

I love the fact that it tracks employees business expenses easily. It has a great UI for users like me and it's easy to manage. Am able to submit and approve expense reports especially when my clients are traveling. It offers a self-service setup with dedicated support making my job easier

Cons

Its customer service only favours large companies bt small businesses or self-employed like me we can only receive support through chat or mail. So it is challenging when something complex needs to change

Overall, it's decent. I like the app availability.

Pros

I like that I can see past receipts and expenses. I also like the app.

Cons

There do seem to be some areas that require too many steps, in my opinion. For example, if I wanted to mark down that there were others at the dinner table, there are several extra steps that you need to go through.

Can't compete with new kids on the block

It just doesn't compete with new expense reporting systems that have awesome new features, are free, and have great UX.

Pros

Not much now that I found an alternative expense reporting system for my company. Expensify was great when there was little other competition. The price was more reasonable than others. The receipt matching was decent, and it was awesome to have it integrated with Quickbooks to reduce financial admin.

Cons

It is very clunky and slow. It would take forever to pull reports, make changes, or create pdfs. It is also expensive in comparison to new kids on the block that are more feature rich with advanced technology that are free.

Pros

Expensify makes it pretty easy to manage expenses, especially in larger companies. It integrates well with other software and is self-explanatory for people to use.

Cons

It doesn't have the nicest interface and some of the features could be streamlined. It's not as delightful to use as other competitors, like Pleo.

Great product! It really makes it nearly impossible to lose receipts or not claim business expenses.

Pros

Expensify makes tracking receipts and sending them to the business office flawless. As long as you take a picture, the rest is easy.

Cons

There’s nothing I don’t like about Expensify. It’s easy. The only suggestion is something it thinks two charges are duplicates when they’re not but Expensify lets you resolve it easily.

Bare bones solution - or so it seems

Overall a simple system to use, bare bones and not flashy. Better than some out there.

Pros

I like the ease of use, and lack of flashiness of Expensify. Mobile seems to work well, and the receipt scanning is quick often.

Cons

IT is very bare bones, it works ok, but there is little intelligence to it. for example when entering mileage it should know what category that is.

It's alright

It is difficult to navigate the site since there are so many ways to do the same thing. It has great features but you don't always know they are there.

Pros

I think the "default rate" for gas reimbursement is one of the best features they offer... that we utilize. It is great to have a rate set to the market of the person in the field because we have employees across the country, gas prices vary, and we want to fairly reimburse people. It is much easier than having to set a rate ourselves, monitor it, and change it as the market does.

Cons

It's not the most user friendly site to navigate. It is difficult to figure out how to submit an expense without some playing around. Since there are several ways to submit an expense, it is hard to tell if you are done and set to be reimbursed.
