I use WebExpenses to expense back all my day-to-day expenses. I can use it via the app or browser however I do find it easier to use via the app as I can easily upload receipts by a simple click. This gets to my manager within seconds for their approval.
  • Uploading receipts
  • Being instantly connect through all platforms (i.e. app, browser)
  • Submitting claims.
  • Browser can be harder
  • attaching receipt to claim using browser.
WebExpenses is always well suited as it is a really simple tool that connects you and your finance department on a quick, practical and logical way.

Webexpenses is being used across our organisation, and it has been well received by all users who used to have to fill in an Excel spreadsheet and attached their receipts to it and get it manually signed before submission. Doing this via a web browser is now much easier, and also using the mobile app allows us to add expenses on the fly, quickly take a photo of the receipt and job done. In my opinion this is a game changer and saves people a lot of time.
  • Quick to add expenses.
  • Great mobile app.
  • Seamless approval process.
It is great for doing expenses on the go through the mobile app. As soon as you have encountered an expense, you can quickly add it to the months expenses, and then only have to add the additional ones where you didn't have time, or where driving at the end of the month.

its user friendly, easy to add receipts and easy to log routes for mileage. It is harder to edit existing claims as it is not always clear how to make changes.

In my opinion, it is not the most convenient tool from accounts payable side. We are not able to add filter to see only specific category claims, also if it is not possible to create several layer approvals. For checking the recipes and claims, I think the specialist must make a lot of clicks and from LEAN 6 sigma point of view it is a waste of time. From the submitter side. The App is more convenient than the web solution, but still I cannot save some settings like if I make claim in X category, always as default use this project code.
  • App and web solution
  • Most of the time, the system works well (is not down)
  • Navigation in tool is easy
  • Filters from end user side when checking the claims
  • If a company has many entities then approver should see all the claims
  • More interfaces (slack, travel perk etc.)
It is well suited for small organisation with easy processes and straight forward approval systems. I think it is not the best one for larger one with complex structure, processes, and many entities. For big complex organisation it is tricky with every tool as usually it is not developed for such cases. I wish that WE would like to become such a tool that it would become the best fit for big and small companies.

The app Webexpenses is widely used across the company for offshore crew and onshore employees to report all expenses during either business trips or travel to/from the vessels.<br>It makes it easier to create an expense with the capability to take a photo of the receipts and upload it straight within the app, no more need to keep receipts (and the risk of losing it) to create a manual expense request later.
  • Creation of expenses from different countries/currencies on the same claim
  • Capability to take a photo and upload the receipt within the app on the phone
  • Facility to review and approve expenses
  • It seems that in some Samsung phones the camera within the app doesn't work
  • Sometimes when creating a claim in a different currency, the exchange rate is set to manual, without user interference
Well suited tool for those who travel constantly and has a reimbursement process where the receipt needs to be sent to Payroll.

Webexpenses enables my team to submit expense claims with ease. Provides easy link between my support team and accounts. Which ensures we get expenses back in an quick and efficient manner. Would highly recommend this solution to any business, who processes large amounts of expense claims. Will definitely save time and money.
  • Reporting
  • Submitting Claims
  • Reviewing Claims
  • Receipts section made easier
  • More info on Claims Vault, Screen tips or descriptions
I manage a team of remote workers. Based across the UK and the world. So having a centralised Webexpense solution saves us a lot of time and enables requests to be submitted straight through to the Accounts team to process. Whereas before we would have had to manually raise the requests and evidence through to Accounts. Which could delay payments etc.

Use it for all of our Credit Card reconciliations and all of our out of pocket/mileage claims.

Saves time for us all - with the easiness of just taking a photo and uploading this to the app, where the cost is already sat after being imported from our bank directly.

Employees can submit expenses quick and easily compared to the old paper based methods.
  • Ease of use
  • Easy reporting
  • App works really well
  • Links directly to our credit card provider for imported transactions
  • Direct link to bookeeping software
For lots of staff who travel a lot, have a variety of expenses this is a great product that saves them having to collate lots of paper. It reduces the risk of lost receipts and unknown items. I think, for companies who want a quick easy way to view expenditure, track credit cards and deal with out of pocket claims easily this is perfect.

Used across the business for all expense claims, with a widely distributed workforce away from the office a lot of the time it allows us to easily and remotely complete the expenses process. The mobile app is widely used for the uploading of receipts keeping the paper transfer to a minimum.
  • Receipt upload and assignment.
  • Simple but limited scope for the expense reason.
  • Both mobile and web based.
  • Seems to give us what we want at the moment.
Easy and simple to use in our department.

We use Webexpenses to pay the employees expenses during their trips around the world. Usually, we go along with our sister companies to fix their company network and provide new assets. We usually buy assets or equipment or foot at the restaurants. We upload the receipts in the portal and get refunded by the company.
  • Keep track of expenses.
  • Scanning the receipts and reading the contents.
  • Converting with different exchange rates.
  • Phone app, I'd rather prefer to use the website instead.
  • User interface design.
This website is ok, the autofill functionality is well made, the OCR reader works well, making me save a lot of time. By the way, the phone application sometimes gets errors or, after a claim is made and all the fields are filled up, I can't save it because of synch problems. I hate to start over a thing, and I did it a lot of times. SO, I always take pictures with my phone and use the website with my laptop to fill everything in, completely avoiding the phone. Best scenario? at home with a glass of wine filling the fields and assuring that nothing is missing/wrong. Worst scenario? taking pictures at the restaurant and filling up things with chaos, just to discover that I could not upload due to lack of server connectivity/out of synch problems.

Are use Webexpenses for all my expense claims in relation to apprenticeship assessments that I conduct. This makes it quick and easy for me to submit my expense claims, for my line manager to approve the claims and forward them to finance for processing.
  • Submit my expense claims
  • Quick and easy for my line manager to approve my claims
  • Seamless integration with finance department
  • Ability to reuse expense claim headers once an expense claim under that header has been submitted
  • Other than the comments above I think Webexpenses is pretty good
I think that Webexpenses is well suited to my needs. It is a quick and efficient way for me to submit my expense claims. I would be happy to recommend this service to other businesses. For expense claims, I cannot think of an area where this would not be appropriate.

Its our tool for expenses, used by the who business
  • Fast data entry
  • Good use of mobile features
  • History of previous expense claims
  • Platform stability - can be hit and miss
  • On occasion the platform has lost receipts
  • Categories of expense types is limited
I would say its a useful platform if your looking for an easy and straightforward expense platform. Its useful if you are a small or medium sized business looking to automate the expenses function within your business.

We will be using Webexpenses expense management features across our entire company. Webexpenses streamlines employee expense capture and tracking, and creates uniformity and consistency for the approving supervisors and accounting staff. This process offers flexibility for the end-user to process each expense. The multiple approval levels ensure policy compliance.
  • Optical receipt capture.
  • Receipt matching to bank card statement line items.
  • Claims dashboard for easy review.
  • I'd like to see improved functionality for intra-departmental account code selection.
  • The report writing is limited
  • The claim item processing for split expenses is glitchy and we often need support to complete the split
  • Customer service responses can be slow.
This program may be complicated for older employees who are less tech savvy. During onboarding, many staff had difficulty with the steps for marking an expense as credit card vs. personal spend. Webexpenses is a significant improvement over a manual reconciliation process.
Certain situations with split credit card expenses seem to cause the system to hang-up, often requiring tech support to correct.

We were better off printing off credit card statements and getting people to provide hard copy receipts. Very slow loading program, calculates foreign exchange rates incorrectly, reporting produces information different to what is recognised in the system itself. Regularly have to wait months for a response to an email or support ticket. Don't waste your time with this product.
  • Messes up reporting
  • Miscalculates exchange rates
  • Leaves automated fields blank
  • Abandons you as soon as you start paying for the product
  • It shouldn't take 60 seconds to load a page, on every page.
  • It shouldn't take 60+ days to get a response to a basic support ticket
  • It should be able to use logic to calculate two numbers noted in it's system, rather than pulling a completely different figure
If time is important to you, Webexpenses is a bad choice. If you use multiple currencies, this does not work. If something goes wrong and you don't know code well enough to fix the product yourself, this is not the product for you. If your company uses credit cards, find a better product.

We use Webexpenses to manage our personal expense reimbursements and credit card expenses reports. It allows us to store receipts prior to submitting, track employee mileage, and assign expenses to their respective accounts. Webexpenses helps us track travel expenditures, which are frequent in our industry, especially for our sales and PR teams.
  • Easy to submit and track the status of expense reports
  • Offers a mobile app to organize receipts on the go
  • Handy email notifications
  • Clunky interface on desktop and mobile
  • Auto-suggested receipts pull the wrong total or are matched to the wrong expense
  • Mileage tracking doesn't always attach as a receipt
I think Webexpenses is great for smaller organizations but maybe not for larger ones. It's also a good fit for positions that require travel that employees track and are reimbursed for mileage or personal expenses. I definitely would not depend on the mobile app if you can't also use Webexpenses on desktop. Sometimes it's glitchy and requires you to use both.

I primarily use Webexpenses to keep track of mileage and various other company related purchases. Such as amazon orders, fuel receipts and mileage.
  • It is very user friendly and easy to use.
  • It keeps track of mileage and automatically calculates the rate.
  • It is easy to upload receipts and invoices.
  • It is quick and easy to get up to final approval before each pay period.
  • I really can't think of any. Aside from maybe the first time I used it. I was a bit confused until I watched the tutorial video and then it was a cinch.
It is extremely user friendly for tracking mileage and the going rate for mileage expenses. I also find it very easy to make amazon purchases and upload the receipts of payment to get my personal funds back in my account quickly.

With the nature of my job i work away from home a lot and incur charges and fees constantly. Webexpenses enables me to keep track of what I have spent, when and why. This is then relayed back to the accounts department and they are able to see a compiled amalgamation of all my monthly spendings accomponied with relevant receipts. This enables me to be paid on time and the correct amounts.
  • organise expenses in chronoligical order
  • signpost how to create new expenses and receipts
  • has a detailed archive of help manuals
  • some times all of the expenses dont fit on the same page
Webexpenses allows me to record my expenses on the go without the hassle of clicking on multiple programs and software. It coallates all of my expenses in one place so i can refer back to them should a query arise. I dont think ill ever need to use another expense software.

I use Webexpenses for my company credit card reconciliation, photographing receipts easily on my mobile phone and saving as I go. I then reconcile this expense at the end of each month, logging details of attendees, both internal and external. I also use the programme for any personal expenses accrued over the month.
  • Receipt photography
  • Receipt recognition
  • Tagging internal and external attendees
  • The rules are fixed around minimum attendees
It works well for logging my company card purchases or personal expenses. I like that I'm able to take pictures of receipts on my phone and they are tagged to expenses on the go, rather than saving all my receipts for the month and logging at once.

There are restrictions on adding minimum attendees to purchases, but I assume that is an internal control.

It was difficult at first shifting from using excel sheet to Webexpenses as I need to scan all documents and upload to the system. As I progress, it is become user friendly for me and I can easily track my previous expenses using Webexpenses. Less error was observed based from my experience.
  • Can track previous expenses
  • Can see status of my reimbursements
  • Webexpenses can detect the amount in the receipt
  • Once the photo of the receipt has been uploaded, it should only be one click and not too many clicks
It may be difficult adjusting to the system but as you use it frequently, it is user friendly and you can track previous expenses. It can detect the amount and it can also detect if the previous receipt has been used. You can see the status of your reimbursements realtime.

Makes it very easy to be able to rely on my expenses being checked, authorized, approved, and paid all within a timely manner. Does not need multiple field inputs for basic receipts, and keeps me updated with relevant communications regarding the progress of claims. The best feature is the mileage calculator which allows the starting point and destination to be easily calculated.
  • Receipt Reading
  • Travel/Milage Calculator
  • Approval Progress Communication
  • Little confusing in finding receipts already uploaded
  • Split Journey Costs
Mobile app is great for submitting expenses on the go, removing the long task of having to do everything on a laptop once per week. Receipt recognition is also a great feature, saving time for expense submissions.

Webexpenses is being used to submit personal expenses. All staff can access it and have their accounts along with the finance department. We also are using it to submit our company card expenses as well. The Finance department does it. It helps us to control our cost control and analyze our spending.
  • Easy to submit the invoices when the values are matching.
  • Good reports, could be compatible to different accounting softwares.
  • VAT split does not work on the CC upload batch, needs to be amended manually.
  • When uploading the receipts, often fails, cannot understand the reason.
Easy to operate when receiving the proper training.

We use Webexpenses for expense management within the company. I had used different other systems before where I have to mention so far I am impressed by the simplicity and how easy it is to understand the context within Webexpenses.
  • Reciept import and matching to expenses
  • Review process
  • Importing new expenses with the mobile app
  • VAT handling
  • App stability was sometimes a problem (had to clear cache)
It's perfect for expense management in small & medium businesses. I would assume it could fit for large enterprise as well. In my former employer we were changing the expense system 3 times over the years but all of them were very complicated to handle, slow in performance and usually not integrated with different devices.

We use the product to enable us to work from home while also having the equipment needed to do so. The company will also allow us to use it for treats that they have advertised, such as getting an ice cream on a hot day on the company. I have used the product in the past to claim ink expenses, laptop trays, etc.
  • Clearly laid out
  • Easy to use
One day we had an emergency, had to print off some files that needed to be picked up by courier. Could not attend office at the time. Went to buy ink for personal printer in order to print work documents. Claimed the expense back, and had the money returned within the week.

It is difficult to use for small purchases that may not come with a receipt.

I use Webexpenses to file and send any expense claims for approval to line managers. I store a record of receipts of incurred costs on training, travel or trips when working. Once receipts are added and claims raised, the claim is sent to a designated approver (usually a line manager) for approval. Once approved, instruction to reimburse me is sent to finance.
  • Store receipts.
  • Record keeping.
  • Quick and efficient expense approval.
  • Not user friendly app.
  • Adding receipts is confusing and offers various options.
  • It far too often asks you to save a claim when changing pages and then crashes.
If I were to attend a business trip, my company allows me a capped amount to spend on subsistence (meals, etc.) when away. Once I return, I photograph all receipts and upload to Webexpenses to clearly apply for reimbursement. The same can be done with e-receipts for private hire cars or taxis.

I use it to reimburse any travel expenses and sustenance expenses I incur in my daily role, I use it to keep track of my spending and mileage also. it helps us as a business to view trends in travel patterns and gives us a transparent view of where our colleagues traveling to and making sure they are being reimbursed for all company expenses.
  • Tracks all expenses clearly.
  • Easily works out mileage from one past code to the other.
  • Easy to produce receipts and keep on top of inputting expenses.
  • Sometimes picks up the wrong information on the receipt.
  • Asks the same thing twice when inputting mileage expenses.
  • I'd like to be able to copy a previous expense if traveling to the same place monthly, etc.
Easy to use and well suited to people who are field based and travel within their role. Can easily keep track of expenses you've inputted and expenses that are outstanding. Easy to scan receipts and keep them on the app and stops you from hoarding hundreds of receipts each month.

I use Webexpenses to submit claims against my CPD allowance, or for work related expenses.
  • Consolidates expense claims into one submission.
  • Allows easy upload of receipts.
  • Easy remote submission for a global company.
  • Receipt upload can be clunky - saves and kicks you out before you get to go back and add receipt.
Well suited to allowing employees like myself to remotely submit expense claims related to CPD allowance, or other work related expenses that have been approved.
