Shoeboxed vs. SutiExpense

I'm not sure how Shoeboxed can be used in a large organization, but for our small business, it is perfect. I'm the only one who deals with our finances and works with our accountant and for that Shoeboxed is simply my lifesaver and worth so much more for not just all the time it saves me but all the worries and headaches too.

We reviewed several expense report systems at the time and found that Suti Expense had the features that we needed for our organization. Most of our users are in-house employees that use the system 2-3 times a year. The pricing model that they provide allows us to only pay for the users that file an expense report in that month. No management by IT or Finance.

• Customized reports cannot be accomplished
• No way to grab exact data based off of finance needs (restricted on what is reportable)

We felt we got more customized support through Shoeboxed and pricing was competitive.

We choose to go with suti expense because of the options. GSA Per Diem was important to us and many of the other vendors did not have a GS A feature We also needed to be able to calculate Mileage which Suti Expense does. with Google Maps. Suti Expense also gave us the option to have Customized fields Suti Expense also allowed us to use existing O365 SSO for username and password. No additional support needed from IT
