Egencia vs. Happay

Overall, Egencia is a good tool for my employees to use when I (or my work partner) aren't available to make the reservations. They can easily access their account and the charges will go on the corporate credit card. This makes it all around easy for the traveling employees.

Happay is the best for all expenses which are unique in nature for employees. It creates the Flexibility of the wallet and incorporates ease of access for both the employer and the employee. Bill submissions are made much easier with the features along with the scanning of the bills. Happay helps in going completely paperless as well as an accounting tool for businesses, especially in MSME and SME companies which benefit from a greater tool.

• Egencia works with SAML, so it's easy for users to get set up and logged in.

• Customer service was awful. It was a running joke that when we had to call customer service for something (frequent), it was a crap-shoot whether we were going to get someone that knew what they were doing.
• The website was not intuitive and sometimes made it difficult to find the flights we wanted. Most of the admins resorted to looking for flights on other services and then searching for that flight specifically in Egencia.

Incentivized

• Very difficult to retrieve expenses that have already been approved
• Filling in data with required time stamp, which is difficult to do for each expense

It is just so simple to use.

When I had a problem with cancelled and rescheduled flight Egencia team was not helpful at all. They claimed that in their system the flight is still happening hence they will not advise on anything else. I had to spend a lot of time calling the airline to clarify the details and to find out when my flight is happening in the end.

I have not faced any issues for which I had to call the support team, so I gave an average rating for the Happay Support Team.

My training was over the phone with some trial and error.

It's not even close! Axios was much more difficult to navigate than Egencia. In my opinion, Egencia more closely mirrors travel booking systems we all use outside of work, which makes training much easier for new users. The ability to automatically download calendar invites, share itineraries, and download PDF receipts is such a big help

Happy has a much slick UI and it's easy to understand.
