    Considered Both Products

    Chose Emburse Abacus
    I chose Abacus because of its ease of use and flexible billing. The billing is based on the number of submissions rather than users in the system. Because we reimburse committee members, we have a lot of users in the system, but the activity can vary widely from month to month.

    Chose Emburse Abacus
    We migrated from SAP Concur to Emburse Abacus after carefully considering a number of factors. Total cost of ownership, new user training and adoption, direct integration with our ERP, and the ability to process individual expenses in real-time as opposed to processing monthly …

    Chose Emburse Abacus
    It's very intuitive and was created for this exact kind of environment.

    Chose Emburse Abacus
    I have never used anything like Abacus but I can't imagine a product that offers more value than this does. It allows you to categorize the expense, which will show where we are spending the most money as a company. It keeps a great record of past expenses and the status (if …

    Chose Emburse Abacus
    I, again, was not the decision maker in this process so I did not evaluate any other companies. Expensify is another one I've heard of, but I cannot compare pricing or uses at this time. I would say the user friendliness of Abacus really made me enjoy it, I have no interest …

    Chose Emburse Abacus
    We originally migrated from SAP Concur. We made the decision to switch to Abacus because Concur does not sync directly with Sage Intacct and it was less expensive. Expensify seems to be what most companies recommend, however, it was out of our price range

    Chose Emburse Abacus
    Other co-op databases, such as Wiland, Next Action (Oracle), etc. are all useful and can be part of your marketing mix. Each has their own strengths and weaknesses. Never put all the eggs in a single co-op basket.

    Chose Emburse Abacus
    Abacus is a better payment reimbursement program than Expensify, which my company had previously used up until switching to Abacus around a year ago. Abacus has a better, sleeker, and more modern user interface. I can't comment on the price comparison of the two programs, but I …

    Chose Emburse Abacus
    I used expensify in my last role, however it was at a bigger company so I was not involved in the process besides being a user. Abacus seems easier to use from a user perspective. It would be great to have a better integration with our payroll system, but it seems like with all …
