Navan vs. Spendesk

A specific scenario where TripActions was well suited was when I needed to book a hotel stay in Cologne, Germany for multiple colleagues. The fact that they were registered users made coordinating their stays a seamless process. I have not had an occasion where TripActions was inappropriate to use.

Spendesk's integration with Slack is super functional, as I receive requests to approve expenses daily. This way, we can act on time. This also works with pending approvals from other stakeholders. Also, keeping tracking of the POs thresholds is quite handy. On the other hand, sometimes I struggle when I want to access historical data quickly. It would be amazing to get a dashboard.

• Provides a wide range of travel options within a wide budget.
• It is reliable - if a trip gets canceled, they are quick to contact their customer and help sort out additional booking details to get you to your final destination.

Incentivized

• POs approval
• Integration with Slack

Incentivized

• Limited partnerships with all the major airlines, or if so, slowly just adding more airlines to their platform
• Not a lot of information about the ratings of the hotels. I have stayed in hotels that I probably wouldn't have if their information was more up to date

Incentivized

• The AI that reads receipts could be improved.

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.

I like TripActions more because everything is on a mobile app that is super user-friendly. The customer service team is also world class-I genuinely have never felt so taken care of. More so, Concur Travel and Expense never rewarded me for traveling, while I made over 200 dollars in Amazon money just for doing my job.

Spendesk is fully dedicated to this field. While we are still using Airtable for other purposes, such as automation, Spendesk allows us to get a well-structured process for approvals and improve the communication between different teams

Incentivized

• 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.

Incentivized

• Reduce the approval time of expenses
• Improve the communication between departments
