Likelihood to Recommend For a simple invoice-based organization, especially with multiple stores, Billtrust is an appropriate fit. While lacking in design and intuitive functionality, Billtrust got the job done as far as receiving payments from customers. However, if you are in a subscription-based business or one that invoices on a frequent repetitive manner, Billtrust may not be the best solution.
Read full review Expensify has been incredibly useful to me for many years. Considering I am using the free version, it's hard to find a better value! If your company does not have a good expense-capturing system, Expensify will save you hours on submitting reports. You can take a picture and toss the paper receipts right at the point of sale without worrying about losing them during your travels. If you have a small business, you can use it to track and organize regular expenses to make billable expenses and end-of-year taxes a whole lot easier.
Read full review Pros Billtrust's customer service always replies within 24 hours, leaving the case open until it is verified to be resolved. The customer portal our credit managers access is exceptionally well designed, allowing us to see when an invoice was delivered, and even when the end-user opened it. There are built-in reports to answer almost any question. Read full review Submitting expenses. It's easy to enter an expense, choose a category, enter the dollar amount and submit it. That's about it. Uploading receipts. You can send receipts to Expensify from your phone, or upload them from your computer. Entering hours worked. It's simple to move from expenses over to timesheets to submit the hours that you've worked. Read full review Cons Search feature of PO or invoice #, etc. when logged in as the dealer. When logged in to Client Connect, would like to choose page number easily, instead of clicking Next Page as many times as needed. Have to scroll to right to display all columns when it looks like there is plenty of room to display them without a scroll bar.

So making Smart scanner a little smarter, essentially. It would be fun to see stats about my expenses Read full review Likelihood to Renew We have a longstanding good record of invoice delivery and a high number of customers who are accustomed to the look and feel for logging to make payments
Read full review 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

Read full review Mobile works great, but let's be honest. It's just a photograph. Their OCR and human turk technology works great to scan that photo and enter the proper information. The web interface is decent and allows you to work with single expenses in great detail. What's missing is the ability to mass update expenses, and this sometimes hurts, especially if you're a heavy user of the system.
Read full review Support Rating We deal with our customer's AR personnel to help resolve issues with our open invoices. They can help us but seem to be lacking in the overall understanding of the Billtrust software and why things may work the way they do. We have some accounts that are active that we have been unable to add to our corporate account, and as a result, these bills must be paid via check, and we are not currently receiving statements. It would be great if they had more robust customer service or maybe different criteria for creating accounts.
Read full review 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.

Read full review Alternatives Considered For a less tech-educated workforce, Billtrust did the job and required minimal developer resources on our end. Also, while Billtrust lacked in several arenas relative to Stripe, it was good for us since we were not a subscription-based business. For the price, Billtrust was a good solution for our invoice-to-pay business.
Read full review Concur was a great product as well but Expensify offers the ability to quickly upload expenses and submit reports just the same. There is no free version with Concur, so for a small business that's interested in keeping costs down I would highly recommend Expensify.
Read full review Return on Investment 10 day reduction in our DSO resulting in increased cash flow Savings in printing, ink, folding, stuffing, and postage over in-house production, and additional savings with every customer that changes from paper to electronic delivery methods Increased payment application by batching payment types by day into one file Enhanced knowledge base for staff through webinars, Twitterviews, conferences, classes, and contact with customer support allow our staff to utilize our tools fully Read full review Our organization no longer spends countless hours per month orchestrating the consolidation of data (MS Excel, typically) into our general ledger. Our accounting department is no longer tasked with making sure the correct individuals have approved submitted reports. Our accountants have a much easier time coding the reports that have been submitted by users. For the most part, we rely on users to code their submissions to the correct accounts.
