Cardata vs. SAP Concur

CarData is well suited for outside sales reps. It really has not been less appropriate at any time. It has helped me manage my time so that I am not spending a bunch of time writing down all of my miles, therefore I can concentrate on the important aspect of my job.

SAP Concur works very well to book travel. It provides several options for airlines, hotels and cars. Automatically updates the calendar. Reminds to complete relevant subsequent activities. The app allows to capture the receipts and amounts very easily. While reconciliation this becomes very easy and fast. It allows to capture tips and one can manually update the amount.

• SAP Concur has mobile applications for iOS and Android devices.
• It offers capabilities that automate complex and repetitive accounting processes.
• In addition, SAP Concur offers invoice, travel, and expense modules in one place.
• It eradicates errors when paying vendors by matching POs, invoices, and receivables.

• Once the next month starts it is hard to go back and disposition travel

• For a new user of SAP Concur, it becomes difficult to file the first reimbursement as that person is new to the application and probably, one needs to to go through the instructions to get used to it. So, user interface can be improved and could be tried to make more interactive. Other than that, it's all good to go.

Now that we are fully on Concur, switching is not an option. Concur has become ingrained in our expense reporting process. Furthermore, Concur continues to improve its offering. Each month, they release updates and changes, many of which were client requested. Concur's constant evolution means it is adapting with my business

I think it is very easy to use, especially once you are acquainted with it. I think the UX could be improved so some things, like accessing old reports, are more intuitive once you learn it though it is not difficult to replicate.

In prior years I would have given them a 9.5 for availability. Unfortunately in 2015 so far this rating has dropped to a 7 overall.
We have experienced far too many interruptions - from admins to employees who rely on it for day to day booking of travel and submission of expense reports. Server errors, slow system response time and spinning wheels are too common place. Those things should be a rare occurrence, not a daily interruption.

While Conur still has great product offerings overall, they are currently not offering world class or best in class product (and customer service) availability. Remaining hopeful they step up and get their A game going again soon.

Pages always load quickly, reports are always completed in a quick and efficient time frame, and everything about the experience is swift. I've never had any frustrations or complexities that can't be handled easily

I have never had to use customer support when using Concur Expense - the UX could be a bit nicer on the eyes or easier to understand, but there have never been any problems when using Concur Expense that I have had to ask or reach out to customer support to help me with anything.

My Seniors were the ones who taught me about Concur. Concur Support team has sent me training links and answered me in their tickets too. Usually they are helpful and knows their stuff. There are times when webex meetings is conducted for reporting training. They were very patient and took down all the details from me.

I can use it after that training, so it fits the purpose.

There are different implementation teams for each module of the product you purchase, so implementation is not a 'one size fits all' environment. Also, the different implementation teams have different ways of doing things, so Concur could stand some standardization and streamlining in this area. A Project Manager can make or break an implementation so don't be scared to ask for a new one if things are rocky.

I have not used any other products and I do not see the need for our company to shop around for other products. CarData works well for me.

Expensify and Zoho Expense work for small and mid-size businesses. Big multinationals do not receive benefits from the apps. Coupa is good as a solution for organizations with non-SAP leading systems. If you plan to use SAP ERP as the main/lending system then SAP Concur is the best solution, mainly for its native integration with SAP ecosystem.

This program has been very helpful, user friendly and has been a great asset to use to assist with time management. Not only are leadership involved with using this program but all staff as well. This is also a great way to hold each accountable. Easy startup with not many means for hands on training

Incentivized

• Frees up time
• Manages my mileage for me
• Helps me to keep track of my day

• Concur's automation has produced impressive efficiency improvements, which have decreased the time and effort required for expense management.
• Manual errors and policy violations have decreased, which has led to cost savings.
• We now adhere to corporate regulations better, which lowers risks thanks to Concur's policy compliance checker.
