Product Description

Real-time employee expense management & reimbursement

How do you position yourself against your competitors?

Abacus is the only platform to remove the arbitrary employee-generated expense report from the process - making submitting and reviewing expenses faster and more accurate. Each expense is submitted and entered into the system in real time, giving admins instant visibility into spend. Expenses are then automatically and logically organized into Live Reports as they enter the system according to their business purpose.

Live Reports make sure that expenses are always organized. They enable you to review expenses by employee (similar to a traditional expense report), project, client, time interval, or any custom data point important to your business. Reviewing expenses in meaningful combinations (i.e. all of the expenses for a Project sorted by Category) helps you extract insights and context that wouldn't be apparent if you were to only look at an employee-generated expense report.

What do you like best about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?

One of the things that I like the most about this platform is the design of its interface, it is so easy to use and simple that it makes the user experience fantastic. With this tool I have been able to maintain control and order of all the expenses of my team and myself without any problem, the best of all is that I can make expenses and register them automatically no matter where I am. Abacus is efficient that I can do everything quickly and easily, the best thing is that I forget about papers and photographs loaded with other tools since it includes everything. I mainly use this tool when we are traveling and due to the amount of expenses that occur in the maintenance management, it is perfect to generate reimbursements and keep a better control of each expense. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?

This tool has it all, there is nothing that I don't like, there are some details that can be improved but that don't affect the results or the handling of the tool, for example the design, it could be a little more updated or maybe have a function that allows configuring some expenses or records as most used. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus):

This tool is really recommended for all those who want to keep a better control of their expenses, it is a tool with monthly prices that are a bit high but without a doubt it offers great organization, monitoring and control solutions.

From $9 per month you can count on a great work tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus) solving and how is that benefiting you?

The greatest benefit offered by this tool is being able to keep all my expenses updated and organized in a quick and simple way. As a maintenance coordinator, it is important to keep each expense registered and the expenses of each one of the members of my team, and with the ease and help of this tool is increasingly optimal. Tracking reimbursements has never been so easy, in addition to facilitating the audit of expenses, allowing me to save a lot of time and my work team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
