Overall Satisfaction with Expensify

Expensify simplified and streamlined a previously-manual process that required multiple internal workflows for expense submission and approval. Employees really like the Receipt Scan feature. The plafrom is also customizable in terms of how much expense classification and description levels are required, and that helps our Accounting department. We've not deployed the Travel area for booking and planning business trips, but we use the rest of functionality pretty heavily for field employee expense management and expense reporting.

Pros

  • Receipt scan
  • Expense classification
  • Split expense with another employee
  • Email inbox for expense forwarding

Cons

  • Import card controls not as flexible
  • Aggressive duplicate detection
  • App offline mode can be touchy
  • Automate manual processes
  • Increase trackability and accountability
  • Increase employee satisfaction
Receipt scanning is very good in the native mobile app. Receipt parsing in the email inbox is also highly accurate and reliable. The website has very comparable functions to the phone app, which sometimes can be very helpful. The workflow for submitting an expense as an employee, and approving an expense report from an employee, is pretty smooth.
A dedicated app like Expensify does better than a combined platform at the main use case - expense tracking, reporting, and reimbursement. Bigger, wider-scope platforms take more effort or have other features that can occasionally get in the way. We prefer Expensify's simpler, more organized, more streamlined approach. It does mainly one thing, but it does it very well.

Would you buy Expensify again?

Yes

I have used a variety of apps and platforms but none as smooth as Expensify. For a large workforce, or a small one, Expensify strikes a balance between employee-friendly and employer-friendly. The user-friendliness is often mentioned by the employees, and the employer has plenty of checks and balances. It checks all the boxes for us.
