Overall Satisfaction with SAP Concur

Use Concur Expense for employee reimbursement for several countries currently. Expense is also used to process invoice in Japan, and Travel is used for entity in US. the easy UI helps to get employee easy to process expenses but our business process makes more complicated to request claim. I highly recommend to review business process when implementing Concur than tweaking system to current business processes. Corporate Credit card is also linked and interfaced to link to employee expense. simple step to send for approval. I also used Concur in former company and it getting a defact standard for expense. so even for new joiners, it's easy to get to used to use the tool. less work for helpdesk to support
  • User friendly GUI
  • Simple implementation as long as you make it more complicated by yourself
  • Easy interface with SAP and other system
  • pretty much satisfied except cost to run
  • Time saved for helpdesk and employee requesting reimbursement for easy to use tool
  • ROI is hard to determine but processing speed increased and reduced system errors
  • it has not yet to reach to our goal, but more transparent reporting for expenditures
We evaluated scratch system and Japanese software.
SAP ECC currently, and trying to move to S/4HANA by 2027. But we have intermediate system to interface Concur and SAP currently. want to accomplish seamless integration when replacing ECC to HANA
Claim expense by smartphone current company does not have feature to link expense with transportation IC card nor other parking card (this is maybe Japanese practice but if we have contract with parking company, we can use the company's card to pay for tool and can automatically linked up with Concur). it was easier when it was introduced (for may former company) reducing administrative work.
simply less stress to claim expense reducing errors (but still employee make mistaken, but we have a department to check it before final approval)

Do you think SAP Concur delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with SAP Concur's feature set?

Yes

Did SAP Concur live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of SAP Concur go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy SAP Concur again?

Yes

if you want to simplified and standardize process, it is appropriate as long as you can fit to Concur Standard. Also if you have SAP in place, it well suited interfacing with SAP. If you intended to use Concur Travel, it also can link travel expense to Concur Expense (request and approval for actual spends) Less appropriate if transaction volume is low since running cost is calculated per-transaction basis
