We signed up for Certify to track our expenses better and more efficiently.
  • They were willing to work on pricing before we signed up.
  • Their system is outdated. The software could be good, but it seems they are not willing to update to get there.
  • They use a 3rd party linking system which will result in you having to manually reconnect your cards to the system weekly, or your reports will not pull in transactions correctly.
  • The way the users are set up, it makes no sense and has a very hard flow to things. You constantly have to ghost another user to approve expenses billed to a card that is added to your user.
  • They are not a customer-focused company who is concerned with their product or how their customers are treated and focused more on filling their pockets.
I would not recommend using them to anyone.

We contacted our reps and let them know the software was not working for us. We tried, but it left us doing more work than our prior manual process. After requesting our account to be terminated, we were given penalties to be paid for exiting our contract agreement early. We asked why we were being charged after our rep agreed to no penalties, and their answer was that they resolved all of our questions and concerns. So because they gave us information on how to get around their faulty system, we had to pay the penalties for ending the contract.


Do not waste your time or money on this software!

  • There was no ROI. We paid for something that did not work and are out the money. We hope the same does not happen to others.
They fail in every aspect to compete with Expensify, or any other program out there. We selected Certify because we were told it could help us and replace our very manual process.

Certify is being used in company-wide for all team members for expense track and management. It's a great tool to consolidate everything in terms of efficiency and organization.
  • Easy to consolidate for expense track and management. When submitted with the expense, you will see where you are and you can remind the approver if necessary.
  • There is an app provided across IOS and Andriod platform so you can capture the receipts and upload every single time without going through scanning/uploading etc. It's very easy for the frequent traveler.
  • The approvers managing multiple organizations can also do very well with tracking and managing the expense.
  • I found there might be a slight synching up problem when you keep the expense report on your own device and there happened at times the report didn't sync up with the server properly.
It's particularly good for the frequent traveler and they can capture and submit the receipts very easily from their devices. This state-of-the-art design facilitates a great integration for expense tracking and management.
  • As an employee using Certify weekly if not daily, I see a great convenience and efficiency for the business operation. The management and finance team will also be benefited from its well integrated platform to track and manage expense reports, which dramatically lowered the cost on operation.
Concur is doing very well too but Certify seems to be better positioned because of its unified process and even more easier if not harder work flow management.
