Considered Both Products	Cardata CF Christine Fanelli Senior Account Executive Chose Cardata I have not used any other products and I do not see the need for our company to shop around for other products. CarData works well for me. Incentivized Helpful?	Zoho Expense Verified User Anonymous Chose Zoho Expense Zoho Expense is on the lower end with limited features however the cost out weights all the fancy features the others have. As they charge way to much and have limited return on investment. The return on investment for the other platforms is only worth it when operating large … Incentivized Helpful? Brian Hasenbauer Vice President of Marketing Chose Zoho Expense We selected (switched) to Zoho Expense because it had similar features at a lower price and we were able to receive a discount through our partner relationship with another software company. We have considered moving from Zoho Expense to something else recently due to … Incentivized Helpful? Douglas Hoenig Sr Account Director Chose Zoho Expense I've used Concur in the past for managing and submitting expenses. When comparing what I know about Zoho to Concur, Zoho seems to be a more simplified tool focused on simply managing expenses, inputting, tracking, submitting and getting reimbursed. Based on what I know, Zoho … Incentivized Helpful? Abhishek Tiwari Deputy Manager - Technical Solutions Chose Zoho Expense Pardot doesn't have expense management tool. Incentivized Helpful? Matthew Christensen CEO (Chief Executive Officer) Chose Zoho Expense I have only used Expensify before and it stacks up nicely to it. Expensify is probably a bit better, but it's also more expensive, especially if you already use other Zoho products. Incentivized Helpful?

User Testimonials
	Cardata	Zoho Expense
Likelihood to Recommend	CarData is well suited for outside sales reps. It really has not been less appropriate at any time. It has helped me manage my time so that I am not spending a bunch of time writing down all of my miles, therefore I can concentrate on the important aspect of my job. Incentivized CF Christine Fanelli Senior Account Executive Read full review	Zoho Expense is wonderful when you have a distributed or remote team or workforce that needs to submit expenses reports throughout the month into a single software and approval system. Zoho Expense does make it easy to train, onboard, and use all of the end-user features for submitting and generating expense reports. Incentivized Brian Hasenbauer Vice President of Marketing Read full review
Pros	Accurate measurements of travel Saves time Easy to use Incentivized CF Christine Fanelli Senior Account Executive Read full review	The program will notify users if they have entered a duplicate charge. Once the end-users understood that receipts were mandatory, attaching those receipts has become second-nature. The app makes it very easy to do so. Incentivized MW Margaret Wood HR Director Read full review
Cons	Once the next month starts it is hard to go back and disposition travel Incentivized CF Christine Fanelli Senior Account Executive Read full review	Banking integration should be two ways, once corporate card is paid for, it should close the line item Reports should be available on demand Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Usability	No answers on this topic	Ease of use for the simple basic options. I wish the there was an option for reimbursement to be marked separately. Example for all corporate credit expense reports with $0 reimbursements still have to be marked as reimbursed in order to be removed from pending reimbursement section. For the cost the features offer benefits Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Support Rating	No answers on this topic	The only reason I give Zoho a 9 is because of the issue with the Chart of Accounts skewing every time I export/import. I believe this is due to the fact that I use sub-accounts and Zoho cannot differentiate. Still hoping. :) Incentivized MW Margaret Wood HR Director Read full review

Return on Investment	Frees up time Manages my mileage for me Helps me to keep track of my day Incentivized CF Christine Fanelli Senior Account Executive Read full review	It's included in our Zoho One Subscription which was cheaper than QuickBooks, and we now have so many more options at a much cheaper cost.
