	Expensify	SAP Concur
Considered Both Products	Expensify Verified User Chose Expensify Expensify is miles ahead of SAP Concur. Expensify is easier to use to track expenses, track reimbursements, and where it shines the most over SAP Concur is for filling in expenses. The mobile version of SAP Concur is terrible. In Expensify, I can take a picture of my receipt … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Expensify Concur was more expensive but offered a few other things that worked better on a corporate platform. For me personally I chose Expensify based on the lower cost and better access to what makes a difference to me on a local sales rep level. I don't use Expensify to do invoicing, … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Expensify Expensify is simpler and more user-friendly, especially for individual use. The scan receipt function and the straightforward reporting process are key advantages. I chose Expensify because it’s quick to set up and handles most tasks without overcomplicating things. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Expensify Uncomplicated Great UX Brilliant comms Incentivized Helpful? Jason Pitzen Head of CS in Sales at NetRise (Computer & Network Security, 11-50 employees) Chose Expensify Way easier to use, way better mobile experience, the Receipt Scanning capability works and Concur doesn't even offer it. Way more flexible form requirements. Overall significantly better. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Expensify Expensify was much more user friendly and most cost effective than the others. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Expensify Concur has an integration to the CRM system, perhaps more robust with travel options, but it's also more complicated to use in my opinion. An overkill for a small business Incentivized Helpful? Stephanie Caldwell Account Executive in Sales at FloWater (Food & Beverages, 51-200 employees) Chose Expensify I didn’t have a choice on selection but I’ve used other products in the past that weren’t as easy to use or learn and didn’t adapt as easily to the reimbursement process. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Expensify Having used Concur at several other companies, I can honestly say Expensify is my much preferred expense reimbursement system. The UI is easy to use and modern. The alerts and notifications are helpful and friendly. The report and line item expense creation is very easy - as is … Incentivized Helpful? Eric Rousseau Integration Director in Professional Services at Garaga (Building Materials, 1001-5000 employees) Chose Expensify I find Expensify way much simpler than Concur to use. Most fields are populated automatically and I spend way less time to correct violations at the end of the month before submitting my report. Love the fact that my report is sent autmatically: I therefore so not miss any … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Expensify I find Expensify easier to use than Avaza and Concur. With Expensify I like the user interface, and you only need to click on expenses or start a new report and you can start adding expenses. Avaza is more of a timesheet tool, where you select projects you are working on and … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Expensify I prefer Expensify to Concur because Expensify is so easy to use. Uploading receipts to the Expensify mobile app is extremely simple. Concur is more complicated, but that might be because of how my company configured our Concur instance (I often have difficulty … Incentivized Helpful?

It is easier for users to upload receipts than Concur. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Expensify I did not like Concur compared to Expensify. They may have made improvements since I used it over 4 years ago but it was very difficult to import reports into Oracle and we had to a manual upload. It was also not very user friendly compared to Expensify and employees and … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Expensify Both were very similar. I will say the one difference is that as far as hitting "submit" on your expense in Concur, it seems a bit more intuitive to know that you have submitted for reimbursement. I also had a mobile app where I have not downloaded the mobile app for … Incentivized Helpful? Riaz Uddin Co-Founder Zuggit at Zuggit (Wholesale, 1-10 employees) Chose Expensify I went with Expensify because of the cost and the integration with NetSuite. Incentivized Helpful? Ryan Ninness VP of Tech in Information Technology at urban-gro (Horticulture, 51-200 employees) Chose Expensify The big difference between Expensify and Concur was the price.

Incentivized Helpful? Kiara Bynum Expense Analyst at Office Depot (Online Media, 51-200 employees) Chose Expensify I believe that, while Expensify has a lower price point and is simpler to use, it does not encompass nearly the amount of functionality or customization of its competitors. Concur, for example, integrates with a lot more programs (Expedia, Priceline, etc.) a lot more seamlessly … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Expensify Expensify and Concur are similar products, but we ultimately went with Expensify because of its more robust sync options (e.g., syncs to more systems easily) and was more cost-effective for the number of users we have set up (between 50-100). I haven't used Concur to any great … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Expensify I have used Concur in the past and currently. I prefer Expensify by far. Again, the simplicity of the program and app outweighs manually having to enter every receipt, keeping the receipt, matching up to an expense report for submission.

Incentivized Helpful? Alex Nemtsev IS Architect in Information Technology at Amgen (Pharmaceuticals, 10,001+ employees) Chose SAP Concur Expensify and Zoho Expense work for small and mid-size businesses.

If you plan to use SAP ERP as the main/lending system then SAP Concur is the … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose SAP Concur We used Expensify before I was hired, but here is what I understand from that situation. Expensify was clunky and our staff struggled with the UI, whereas SAP Concur is much more clear and allows for a better connection to Intacct. At a previous company I used Apptricity. … Incentivized Helpful? Aaron McGrath President at Acom Consulting, Inc (Construction, 11-50 employees) Chose SAP Concur We used Expensify and it was a better product. Simpler to set up and easier to administrate.

Verified User Chose SAP Concur I used Expensify at a startup and Concur is simply more robust. Both are easy to use, and both have an app but Expensify's only works with Apple products. The reporting functionality is much more robust on Concur, and Expensify does not allow you to book travel from their … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose SAP Concur It wasn't up to me what we should use but I do like both solutions. I think Expensify might be great if you are doing expenses all the time, have people traveling constantly, and need a card. Concur is more your typical solution that also helps with travel booking as well. Incentivized Helpful? Ligaya Avila Student Financial Services Coordinator in Finance and Accounting at The Seattle School of Theology & Psychology (Education Management, 51-200 employees) Chose SAP Concur One of our employees tried Expensify, I only got a glimpse of it on the accounting/end side of the process.

Stacie Balletto Assistant Controller in Finance and Accounting at Invoca (Telecommunications, 201-500 employees) Chose SAP Concur I prefer the other two tools over Concur Travel and Expense.
