Airbnb for Work vs. Emburse Chrome River

It is great for those travelers looking for longer-term accommodations, such as greater than a week or a few weeks. For those staying for only a day or two, it can still be useful, but a hotel may be more appropriate for these kinds of stays. Moreover, many of our travelers like the ability to have a full apartment due to the nature of their stay or the length, and thus using this allows us this added flexibility in finding accommodations with this.

Chrome River in my experience is suited to the employees being more independent when completing their reports, due to the extensive questions and steps. This allows us (the reviewers) to come in and assist the employees more efficiently. I think it fits well with out needs and easy to help our employees

• Easy search functionality by location and date
• Opens up a wide variety of types of places to stay besides hotels
• Dashboard management
• Easy to invite other members of the company

• [Emburse] Chrome River listens to its customer's needs and does its best to match current products to those needs, or collaborate internally to determine if an enhancement can be made available that will not only benefit that customer, but will be a good use case for all Chrome River customers.
• The [Emburse] Chrome River customer service team is great. Unlike most companies, you can speak to a liver person!
• [Emburse] Chrome River's training offerings are relevant and pertinent to the day to day operations of the software.

• Too many listings.
• A lot of filters (could be good to have preset saved filters that the traveler always wants).
• Wishlists include listings that may be already booked, so I don't want to see those.

Incentivized

• Would be great to have pre-saved templates available to apply to line items at the expense report header level rather than having to go into each line.
• Would be nice to have a mass upload functionality for things like cost codes, allocations, and credit card users.

Chrome River is easy to use. We needed little training for our users and instead pointed them to Chrome River's Help Guides which are clearly written and easy to understand. With tools SNAP and the ability to email receipts means we can be completely remote when submitting reports.

The user interface is very user friendly. It makes it easy to filter through the different options it has to offer based on price, location, and the scenery you as the customer would most prefer. This is an extremely helpful feature when there are so many choices to choose from

I would rate Chrome River Expense a 10 because, as I mentioned before, it is very simple and easy to use. This is important from an administrative point-of-view as well as for the field employee. Being a general contractor, it makes it all the better for our employees to use a program that is easy to understand and requires little time and effort. It has made tracking expenses very simple and has been well received by the entire company.

The software is always running effectively. I use many Cloud based systems and never had issues with Chrome River

System runs normal pretty much all the time. Does not slow any other systems down.

I cannot tell you how relieved we were when utilizing Chrome River support in comparison to other Enterprise level software support centers. Tickets were quick and representatives were swift in [their callbacks] and resolutions to our common and most difficult problems. The team there is professional and makes each new support ticket a breeze.

The software is very user friendly, so the online training was easy to pickup for everyone.

Before implementation begins, make sure you have a plan on how you would like your workflow and platform setup for a system like Chrome River. It will speed the process and eliminate the need to make changes when you go live.

Airbnb for Work is very useful for any city. Our practicality of staying where we want is excellent, it really helps us a lot and I'm sure it has already "saved" several people who made last minute reservations, just like me hahaha. We have other platforms that can also help us, but we have a certain preference for Airbnb.

The overall user interface was easy to use and it made the task of the reporting very easy. Compliance rules are guiding the users to correctly upload and enter receipts, which are already uploaded and recognized via OCR during the business trip. Uploading can easily done via APP, mail or receipt gallery. There is no need for storing paper. Chrome River is supporting digital archiving

It's very easy software to design to your needs.

• It has helped our organization to save costs since one place can accommodate many co-workers rather than booking rooms for only two people where the team travels in a group.
• Better deals are available if you are regular customer
• Upgrade options are available which help save money rather than buying a premium suite

Incentivized

• We have seen a return on approver time of nearly 60% meaning our approvers have tripled their output.
• We have had feedback from our users that time spent creating expenses has gone from an average of 2 hours to perhaps 20 minutes, tops.
• We have seen in our dashboards that the Emburse Certify Suite of tools has returned an average savings of over $500K a year.
