Considered Both Products
Deem
Chose Deem
Deem seems much more efficient. Concur limited the types of hotels or flights that I was able to view. Perhaps they had some kind of admin settings on there blocking access to everything for me. But Deem was much easier and faster to use in my opinion.
Zoho Expense
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 …
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 …
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 …
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.

Deem has made life simpler while we make our trips around the states to deliver innovative IT systems with clients. It has incredible synchronization so that whenever you are out for an official trip, the management is notified of your absence in good time. I however a big issue with their hotel reservation system. It does not update the reservations availability in real-time and we get the 'reservation not available message' after booking which brings several inconveniences.

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.

  • 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.

  • Banking integration should be two ways, once corporate card is paid for, it should close the line item
  • Reports should be available on demand

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

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. :)

  • 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.
