Likelihood to Recommend 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.
Read full review Zoho Expense is wonderful when you have a distributed or remote team or workforce that needs to submit expenses reports throughout the month into a single software and approval system. Zoho Expense does make it easy to train, onboard, and use all of the end-user features for submitting and generating expense reports.

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. Read full review The program will notify users if they have entered a duplicate charge. Once the end-users understood that receipts were mandatory, attaching those receipts has become second-nature. The app makes it very easy to do so. Read full review Cons 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 Read full review Could have more default options. Instead of making my users select payment method, allow us to default it to one of the options. More room for customization by department. My service department needs different categories of expenses then my sales department. Read full review Likelihood to Renew 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.
Read full review Usability Probably the easiest Zoho Application to setup, which is to say quite easy. No user has complained about it being difficult. Admin staff like it as well.

Read full review The only reason I give Zoho a 9 is because of the issue with the Chart of Accounts skewing every time I export/import. I believe this is due to the fact that I use sub-accounts and Zoho cannot differentiate. Still hoping. :)
Read full review Alternatives Considered 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.
Read full review I've used Concur in the past for managing and submitting expenses. When comparing what I know about Zoho to Concur, Zoho seems to be a more simplified tool focused on simply managing expenses, inputting, tracking, submitting and getting reimbursed. Based on what I know, Zoho gets the job done with no frills.
Read full review Return on Investment 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. Read full review We have had some issues with the credit card reconciliation process which has made our monthly accounting / close process. This has been a negative Positive ROI is that team members spend less time on expense reports due to the ease of reporting Positive ROI is that substantial training and onboarding is not needed due to the features and simplicity.
