Likelihood to Recommend Certify is not well suited for multi-dimensional ERPs. Although Certify 'offers' general ledger dimensions GLD, the use of them is extremely limited. Filtering on any GLD can only be done once. There is not the possibility for creating hierarchies with the dimensions. The only method of exporting is via a flat file or the open API, which I understand is quite limited. This software is for a smaller scaled business that is not trying to track across dimensions or create hierarchies. Data flow is one directional. I cannot emphasize enough the shortcomings of the reporting. The parameters are mostly based on expense dates rather than expense reports. There are entirely too many of them, and some of them perform the function!
Read full review Very easy to upload & maintain all your expenses at the same place & the same time and its a very clean & clear user interface and supports various formats. many times we can approve the timesheets form our mobile itself and takes less time to submit the reports if asked to attach any missing reports and it is very easy to code the departments & Gl categories and also we have specific employee codes to search very fast & its easy to delete also if something is not requierd maybe Thank you payments stuff and etc and it is also detects if any duplicate transactions are uploaded & we can also ignore those specific transactions to avoid it in the next month's uploads and also we can download each and every month reports of all the list of employees who all are using this application and can find the approvers very easily in the settings tab and also we can change our approvers & can change the proxy approver also and we can verify if any connection failures are happening in if any reports are having failure message and we have all types of card uploaded like manual cards & corporate cards & Amex cards & easy to reject if any missing details to be added by employees
Read full review Pros Integration with Amtrav or other travel booking systems. Certify has a tight integration with travel systems that makes it feel nearly like one cohesive tool. Easy expense options. Use OCR on receipts, import from credit cards and merge items, approve and inquire about expenses. Track your submissions. Easy UI. Friendly and easy to navigate without getting lost. Read full review The integration with NetSuite is well executed. The system is intuitive for both users and approvers. Ability to feed credit card data into the system is super helpful. Read full review Cons Reporting: I would like to see more chart availability from the program. We include various data points from Certify in our monthly financial statement package. Currently, we export data from the program and create our own pivot tables to create charts. Dashboard feature: It would be nice to be able to use the data for a specific date and then be able to print that information. Can't think of another one. As stated before, they listen to their customers so prior issues have been addressed and implemented. Read full review Synchronisation errors list should be available to download Synchronisation fails for whole timesheet when there is one error and we need to hunt for the particular one. It will be better if it fails only the one that has errors Downtime during monthend close timelines occasionally Read full review Usability If the integrations with our card programs had succeeded, I expect [Emburse] Certify would have worked well for expense submitters and approvers. During the short time that the American Express Business integration was active, transactions flowed smoothly, and the expense reporting and receipt matching functions were quite good. The [Emburse] Certify mobile app was particularly powerful and easy to use.
Read full review Support Rating The measure of support is how well they respond when you really need them, like when the system is not performing correctly. We have been on the platform less than a year, and there have been at least 2 instances, where the platform was down. The 2nd time was the day before out fiscal year end. And they need a development website. When they are making changes to your LIVE instance, and things go wrong, the client is the first to know about it! I've come to understand that Certify has tiers of support. Those in tier 1, barely know more about the software than the users. I sent a request for a report that shows expense reports currently pending approval and after 5 days of back and forth I was told to build it myself.
Read full review I was not talking directly with the customer support. My understanding was that, there was some maintenance on the platform but it was never inconvenient for employee or during pick time when employee would put their expenses in the tool. To that extent, I think the support for Nexonia is correct
Read full review Alternatives Considered Before Certify, there was only manual expense reports entered for our company. This took too much time for employees too finish and caused a delay of efficiency. With Certify, it is easier to access and finish each report with the right amount of effectiveness and efficiency it needs. Certify is really helpful in saving a lot of time for employees that do not have time.
Read full review As mentioned earlier in the several questions, Emburse Nexonia is easy to use compared to all the above applications. Integration is easy and plenty of automation opportunities in Emburse Nexonia. Capturing a time sheet is an additional option that no other application has this feature which is a key aspect in any org. to do variance analysis.
Read full review Return on Investment The organization and automatic flow of the expense report to approvers and then AP saves time for all. The user has agreed that it is easier and quicker to prepare the expense report and the managers and AP department finds the automated process to be quicker and more efficient. Time saved is money saved. Certify can recognize if a duplicate expense is submitted or if an expense is submitted too late to be reimbursed according to our policies. This prevents us from reimbursing an expense in error. We use a customized report to track a specific type of expense that gets submitted by our sales team. There is a limit on what can be spent on specific expenses that fall into an entertainment category and the report helps us to stay within the limits. Previously, without this tool, we had spent so much more time manually tracking these expenses and had gone over the limits, creating a deficiency in our processes.
