Webexpenses - Review

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

To my knowledge, the organization is using Webexpenses for reporting expenses and getting reimbursements across the organization. If there are other aspects of the software that they are using, I am not yet aware of these.

Pros

  • Easy to add receipts.
  • Easy to add expenses as they occur.
  • Easy and quick to submit the reimbursement request at the end of the month.

Cons

  • I had difficulty at first figuring out how to get to the page that had the drop-down box with the type of expense. Apparently I had started a request without having chosen that item, and couldn't get back to it. Eventually I figured out the difference between adding a new claim and adding a new claim item, but it wasn't obvious at first.
  • After adding a receipt, you have to look hard to find the back button which is the only way back to add more items, and might be the only way to complete the addition of the receipt to the claim

Return on Investment

  • It seems way more efficient than the spreadsheets we used before.

Expenses made simple

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I use Webexpenses daily to manage my expenses and mileage. It it fast, easy to use and simple. Occasionally the app is not as intuitive as it could be, but the website is easy and fast. Highly recommend it. Tracking mileage is a doddle, especially when some mileage is paid and some is not. Also adapts to use of personal vehicle and company vehicle with ease. Five minutes at the end of each day and I am done. Expenses logged and I know the finance team will reimburse quickly.

Pros

  • Automatic recognition of receipts
  • Tracking of mileage
  • Ease of use

Cons

  • Offline mode in the app.

Time saving and efficient

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Webexpenses for claiming mileage and any expenses we need to put through. It saves employees like myself from having to work out their mileage themselves. It is an up to date product for employees. I use it on a monthly basis to claim back any miles i have used for business purposes.

Pros

  • Works out miles drove immediately.
  • Calculates how much you will earn back immediately.
  • Prompt payments.

  • Having to upload separate receipts for every mileage claim. One receipt should be able to cover the whole of the expenses .
  • A search bar would be beneficial when choosing description to save scrolling for every claim.
  • Set up can look slightly confusing as a first time user. A clearer approach would be better.
