Overall Satisfaction with Expensify

We use Expensify both to track expenses AND to generate invoices. We find that it excels in both use cases. We really like the ability to track direct expenses, upload receipts, track time, and track mileage all in one place. It has become an indispensable part of our workflow that more than pays for the $5/month membership fee.

Pros

  • Uploading and scanning receipts
  • Generating clean expense reports
  • Generating invoices

Cons

  • Random tagging or categorizing of expenses
  • Concierge isn't overly helpful
  • Sometimes adds footnotes that are impossible to remove
  • Saving huge on taxes due to easy tracking of deductions
  • Clean invoices for all of our consulting work
  • Expansion across both business and personal expenses
From my perspective, Expensify's usability is strong for day-to-day tasks. I find its mobile app incredibly intuitive for core functions like scanning receipts and submitting my reports on the fly. However, I did experience a steeper learning curve with more advanced administrative features, and I occasionally found the web interface less straightforward while the mobile interface is limited in functions.

For small businesses with traveling employees or frequent spenders, Expensify is exceptionally well-suited. Scenarios like a sales team on the road snapping receipt photos for instant, automated report creation highlight its strength in saving administrative time and streamlining reimbursement. However, it is less appropriate for businesses with complex financial needs, such as a construction company requiring intricate project-based cost allocation, as the customization options can be restrictive. It may also prove cumbersome for companies needing highly detailed, custom financial analytics or those operating in regions with volatile currency, where its exchange rate updates can lag.
