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?

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

Fabio! Thank you for the great review, we're very happy to see it's working so well for you. We're always here if you need us.

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.

(Original )Information
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.

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?

What do you like best about Expensify?

The implementation specialist as well as the training were awesome! We had tried Concur first, but the implementation as well as training were atrocious, so we bailed and moved to Expensify. What a refreshing difference! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Expensify?

It does not integrate well with Quickbooks. Every week we have to ask our IT team to reboot everything, which means that everyone has to log out of Quickbooks, which is a real pain. Also, whenever there is an update, all of our customizations disappear and we have to manually spend hours reentering all of our GL numbers and their descriptions. We are looking for another solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

It was taking us a TON of time tracking down AMX receipts for our 28 cardholders and then entering the information into Quickbooks. Now the cardmembers upload their receipts to Expensify, which uploads the financial information into Quickbooks. We are saving literally DAYS of work each month! And our cardholders love the ease of submitting and coding AMX receipts. It's a win win for both Finance as well as our managers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Lindsey Peckham of Expensify

Thanks for your review, Marietta! We're so glad to hear Expensify has helped save you time with your credit card reconciliation and receipt tracking processes :)

Expensify is an incredibly easy-to-use tool for managing expenses. Its user-friendly interface makes tracking and submitting expenses straightforward, even for those who aren’t tech-savvy. Features like receipt scanning and automatic expense categorization save a ton of time, and the mobile app ensures you can stay on top of things wherever you are. Overall, Expensify simplifies expense management and helps keep everything organized, making it a great choice for both personal and business use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Expensify?

The one thing is that sometimes the app takes time to truly upload photos. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Expensify?

We use Expensify at work to keep track of the expenses of the month and the refunds that the company needs to process us. It´s super easy to use, you just need to upload the receipt and most of the times the receipts are recognized and categorized automatically. Expensify is integrated with the Payroll system that we use in the company so it´s easy for them to just download all of the reports. I use expensify every week as I neeed to pass my espenses to the people from payroll. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Expensify?

The only thing that I dislike is that sometimes it generates extra receipts if you upload a pdf file, but is something that for sure can get fixed and improved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

It helps us to keep track of our expenses. For the people in the Payroll team I know that it saves a lot of time because they just download and export for the whole company and start paying and tracking expenses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Expensify?

I really like the fact that I can submit requests using my phone. It's quick and easy and I tend to lose receipts. So it's convenient for me to take a picture of the receipt right away, and then submit it later once I have some downtime. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Expensify?

If I don't select the correct office it declines my request, I'm not sure if this is an Expensify issue or my company. Also, I wish didn't have to create the request and then submit it. I wish this was simpler so that once the expense is created, at the end maybe it could say something like "Save and submit" or "Save". Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

All I have to do is submit the receipt and I know I will get my money back, no keeping receipts or crunching numbers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Matt Allen of Expensify

Thanks Justin, happy to hear you find Expensify simple to use.
