Navan vs. Rocketrip vs. Perk

TripActions is absolutely useful for any outside sales teams and companies that promote or offer a lot of travel. If the sales team travels as much as ours does, it's worth the investment. If travel is not something that most of your company has on a monthly to quarterly basis, I do not think that TripActions would be well suited for that environment

I traveled every Monday through Friday for six months to NYC. Hotels are mad expensive and Airbnb was previously not accepted as a suitable lodging option. Once my company implemented Rocketrip, I was able to not only save money by staying at Airbnb but I was also making a ton of money by saving my company money. I was able to find convenient and affordable lodging in NYC, which is seldom possible and was awarded for it! There really is no downside to Rocketrip and I'm amazed that more companies don't use it. For those who are always out to get SPG/Bonvoy/Hilton points, you are still able to do so!

Very helpful in saving time and costs when it comes to planning business travel, tracking expenses, and reimbursement management. Their support team is friendly and comprehensive, they manage to do changes to our reservations within 10 hours before our trip with no extra costs. I can't find a scenario where it is less appropriate.

• I got very competitive flight tickets. Booking was very easy since I don't need to make a payment on my own.
• It was automatic payment by the company's preset card. Hence, the transaction was very smooth.
• I was able to do a group booking when we went for a business meeting. It helped us to get same rows seats, hence it was more productive even inside the flight.
• Any time I contact the support team the response was immediate and great.

• Global Pricing: Since TripActions has the role of an inventory aggregator, they have to tackle inventory one distributor at a time. If CTrip or MakeMyTrip has better inventory, it won't flow through to TripActions until a deal with them is made.
• Controls: TripActions is very open in the way it enforces policy - meaning it isn't for every company. If a customer wants more heavy-handed controls, they'll have to go with a competitor.

• More options to cash out Rocketrip points.

Incentivized

• Truly awful customer service agents who are careless and make mistakes constantly
• Inability to see other travelers on the App, even as an admin
• AE does not escalate issues quickly or seriously enough

This decision overall isn’t made by me. The company evaluates the product. While I am an influencer the overall review is my personal opinion and mine only. The company books flights or would like for us to book flights through trip actions everything else is suggested but done with a personal cc which makes it optional. My option will be to not use TripActions for anything personally.

- Easy bookings and quick expensing - Excellent chat support - Savings for the company since employees opt for rewards which require booking cheaper than average priced hotels - Rewards for employees - Easy to use customer interface - Great mobile applications for android and iOS - Ability to control payment methods for a different types of bookings like hotels or flights or car rentals.

TripActions is the first platform of its kind used by the company. Our director of Domestic Sales selected TripActions after evaluating other platforms (the names of which I do not know). His objective was to streamline travel planning, so that individual users are able to handle their own travel needs within company budgets, rather than relying on a travel coordinator position to handle planning for multiple employees (which had been the approach prior to TripActions).

Works Recipe scanning is simple. It allows you to easily track and manage your expenses. Automatic debit collection. Tax calculation and information are simple. Support for mobile applications. Expensify is a highly automated expense calculator that detects and computes all expenses stored in the system. There is no need to add a single transaction. It also allows you to edit data if you discover an incorrect transaction. Overall it was a great experience with Expensify but create glitches.

TravelPerk does not make us pay for booking flights so it is a much cheaper option for the same quality of service. The chat option is great, compared to phone customer service with Egencia that also gets costly: $22/call.

• The ability to change flights while I am on the road in meetings. They actually call the agents for me.
• It has put money back in my pocket with the Amazon rewards and my company has saved money by me booking the less expensive options.

• Efficient documentation: it's very easy to see and manage employees' trip info and receipts in one place, which helps with accounting
