What do you like best about Expensify?

The tool is very simple, convenient and flexible. I love the fact that it is cloud-based and allows seamless access from any device. The whole process of submitting the report is very fast requiring minimal steps. The auto scan feature is also helpful to prefill the information from receipt though I haven't used it much. The deployment and setup are quick enabling small and medium scaled businesses to have the system up and running quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Expensify?

I felt that for a first-time user there should have been some visual guiding tool to explain what is a report and what is an expense and how are they linked together to each other. Also, email notification on submitting an expense report would have been helpful Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Expensify solving and how is that benefiting you?

Efficient and effective tool for the organization's all expense management needs requiring no support from the technology teams. The tool is quick and easy to deploy and very convenient for the employees to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Expensify?

I like the fact that it is very user friendly. The interaction of being able to see each stage of the process from when it's in process, to approved, to when it's expected to be paid out is a really good feature. I like that it allows you to keep track of your expenses by seeing previous expenses made. The platform and features are really good as it's not a whole lot but just enough. Simple but detailed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Expensify?

I haven't experienced any situation where I would not like the platform so far. So far it does what it needs to do for me where I am able to submit and track my expenses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Expensify solving and how is that benefiting you?

Expensify is a system that was chosen by the company that we utilize for submitting and tracking expenses electronically. It benefits me because I am able to have all my expenses in one centralized location, easy to track and access. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Nick Tooker of Expensify

Thanks so much for the awesome review, JAE! We are so glad you are finding the product user friendly!!

What do you like best about Expensify?

I use Expensify for various clients and it's a godsend. I can manage all of their receipts (I don't have to nag them to provide them) and put them directly into concise, consistent and accurate reports. It smooths out every expense report nightmare. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Expensify?

To be honest, I haven't found anything I dislike about Expensify. It simplifies everything, integrates everything without a hassle and takes very little time and effort. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Expensify solving and how is that benefiting you?

Putting expense reports together can be a headache - you have to nag for receipts, people overthink their reporting process and end up in the weeds...Expensify makes this all go away. With the accounts properly set up, I can keep my clients up-to-date so they are reimbursed in a timely manner and/or credit cards get paid appropriately. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Expensify?

It is so easy to instantly upload and tag receipts on the go! I love that it only takes a few seconds to finalize an expense report and I can do everything from my phone. Whether I'm in the middle of the airport, wrapping up dinner, or checking out of a hotel, I can snap a quick picture, enter some tags, and have peace of mind that my report is complete and I have everything digitized on the spot. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Expensify?

I find the email forwarding a bit clunky - if there is a tip or a hotel expense that is not exactly and easily matched to the receipt, the site will generate a separate report. I find it very easy to just go into the created report and attach a receipt and it's very easy to do without email forwarding, but it would be nice if that feature was a bit more sophisticated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Expensify solving and how is that benefiting you?

No more reimbursements!!! Truly a godsend to not always be reconciling and ensuring that all items were reimbursed properly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Expensify?

Update 3/5/25

I reached out to Daniel regarding our membership and he was very polite and explained that they do their best to be as transparent as possible with their pricing structure. He was able to change our membership to monthly so that we could remove our company from the platform. The process was very easy and Daniel was great to work with. Although, we never wanted it to get to this point for the company to take action.

We are a small business that wanted to use Expensify to see and organize out expenses. The setup process was virtually non-existent for someone inexperienced with previous expense reporting software. Their “concierge” was pointless and the “free days” they provide you during setup are only to lay the ground work to completely screw you in the future. I had to fill out and contact our business banker just for them to contact someone completely different. Waste of time during setup. Then, in order to use their service, everyone had to have a seat. I chose the pay by month option so that we could cancel when needed but guess what, they have a 1 year contract so now we have to pay $211/month for a service that we are not using AT ALL! Unbelievable that they would trap companies in this type of predatory subscription. Never again, and I would recommend ALL COMPANIES TO USE RAMP! Ramp is FREE and their user interface and back office software is 10,000x better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Expensify?

Pricing structure, requests to cancel or for any help have been completely ignored. Customer service was sub par and the company is ridiculous. Never again will we do business with expensify ever. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Expensify solving and how is that benefiting you?

No benefit. Only a hurt to our business. Worst business decision we have made in 5 years. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Daniel Vidal of Expensify

Hey there, I am sorry to hear about your experience. Our intention is not to have anything be too confusing, and definitely not predatory. But I'm sorry you had a bad experience. A couple of points:

- Everyone should get a free trial - before that there is no need to put down a billing card.

- When setting up billing, we ask customers to choose between annual billing or pay-per-use and give a 50% discount on the per-user price for choosing an annual subscription. But we try to make that as clear as possible when setting up. I'll forward this feedback along to our team.

- We have a free version of Expensify as well. It does not have all the functionality of our paid plans, but it is an option.

- Please email me at daniel@expensify.com and I'll see what I can do about canceling your payments. Again, our intention is not to have confusing or predatory pricing. Just a fair approach to also providing a big discount.

Thank you for giving us a shot and I hope to hear from you so we can discuss the options.

What do you like best about Expensify?

I've been using Expensify since 2017, and it has become an essential tool in my financial management toolkit. As a long-time user, I've seen first-hand how Expensify has progressively enhanced its features and overall user experience.

Expensify's robust expense tracking system is its standout feature, providing me with a hassle-free way to manage my expenses.

The software is user-friendly, and its ability to categorize, tag, and even photograph receipts is nothing short of impressive. This feature eliminates the need for manual tracking, saving me countless hours of laborious work. The learning curve is virtually nonexistent, which is a testament to the thoughtfulness put into its design.

Despite its comprehensive functionality, Expensify never compromises on performance. It consistently operates smoothly, and any issues are promptly addressed by their dedicated and responsive customer service team.

In summation, Expensify is a super tool that has expertly catered to all my expense tracking needs for the past seven years. I highly recommend it to anyone seeking a reliable, efficient, and user-friendly expense tracking solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Expensify?

However, no tool is perfect: there's room for improvement in its integration with certain accounting software, which can sometimes be less seamless than desired. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Expensify solving and how is that benefiting you?

Firstly, it eliminates the need for manual tracking of expenses, which used to be time-consuming and prone to errors. By allowing me to photograph and categorize receipts on the go, it ensures I don't lose track of any expenditures, making my expense reports more accurate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Daniel Vidal of Expensify

What do you like best about Expensify?

I love how easy it is to use. The feature to upload multiple receipts at once is by far my favorite.

I travel frequently, so I have many receipts to keep track of. Another favorite feature is this automatically reads the receipt for the name of the business and total spent, saving more valuable time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Expensify?

The initial setup was a bit frustrating, but once it was set up, I'm glad I kept with it. This app makes my life so much easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Expensify solving and how is that benefiting you?

It helps me report my expenses on time and keeps track of all the reports submitted and approved in one place. This saves me very valuable time during my work day. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Expensify?

Expensify is easy to use, and great for keeping long term records of both reimbursable expenses and billables. I've been using Expensify for nearly 9 years and can't imagine not having the convenience and time saving benefits it provides. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Expensify?

There are some desktop browser functions that are not available on the iOS app that I would love to see added (adjusting status and exporting of Reports), but their absence is not detrimental to my daily function. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Expensify:

Excellent tool for employees to record and submit expenses - even better for organizations to approve, reimburse, and keep record of expense reimbursements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Expensify solving and how is that benefiting you?

No problems to note. The primary benefits for me are time savings while tracking expenses and excellent organization of reports for the approval process and record keeping purposes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Shaelyn Combs of Expensify

Thanks for leaving such a kind review, John. It's awesome to hear that Expensify has been saving you time and keeping you organized for so many years!

What do you like best about Expensify?

I suppose if I need to say something nice about it, it did eventually get the job done for us for a period of time, although it was expensive and the support was absolutely terrible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Expensify?

Where do I start? The set-up interface is the most confusing I've experienced, even compared to software that does much more complex tasks. It's very expensive. I've found free software that does exactly what Expensify did and more. And the support was absolutely terrible, we were on a paid plan and only got access to something they call "Concierge" which is like a support chat where you are passed around from agent to agent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Expensify solving and how is that benefiting you?

We used Expensify for employee expense reports. As I mentioned, for a period of time it did function as expected, but the set-up was terrible. Integration with our accounting system was poor and unpredictable. It was way too expensive. And I can't tell you how bad the support was. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Nick Tooker of Expensify

Hi Jimmy, we are so sorry to hear you are frustrated! We would love the opportunity to do better in the future!

What do you like best about Expensify?

Expensify allows our organization to easily log expenses to both common costs and to specific projects. It is easy to download reports and go back to find expenses for reporting and audits. It has transformed the way I log expenses on work travel, making it an invaluable tool for work efficiency. I especially like the smart scanning function for receipts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Expensify?

The only potential downside of using Expensify is that I tend to be less organized in saving my physical receipts, and for some projects these are necessary. So I have to remember to stay organized in the physical world, while Expensify keeps me organized digitally. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Expensify solving and how is that benefiting you?

The endless time needed to enter expenses in an excel format previously has been eliminated with Expensify. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from James Dean of Expensify

Thanks so much for the review, Stephanie! Feels good to say farewell to Excel for expenses, huh?

Simple, reliable, and exactly what I need. It just works, and I haven't encountered any issues. Highly recommended for hassle-free expense tracking. The app also works well.

I've used it for the past 3 organizations and it's always been a good experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Expensify?

If you are in multiple workspaces, it can get a bit confusing. I wish there was an option to change the workspace in the expense details. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
