Chose TravelBank
Much easier on the eyes to read and use. This app needs a few more small items added but does not need to become a super powerful expense app. The simplicity is why I use it.
Chose TravelBank
Expensify seems like a superior product. They make things simple. You can forward your email receipts to them to automatically scan and report are automatically submitted weekly.
Chose TravelBank
We evaluated a host of other options. TravelBank best suited the needs of our small organization as it is affordable and not complex. It does just what we need.
Chose TravelBank
It stacks up right next to concur. They're both great products; they are complementary, not competitors. We used to use Rocketrip, which was complete garbage. I like that I get rewards on Uber. I like that I get rewards on Amazon. I wish I could get hotel rewards, not just …
Chose TravelBank
It is much easier to use than Concur, but typically Concur is mandated to use. We also quickly tried other apps but found that TravelBank was the best. Other apps had issues in trying to recognize the amount if a tip was added and often failed. This is why I like entering in …
Chose TravelBank
I used Concur at a previous employer. I'd say that the Concur booking experience is more polished, but the TravelBank's rewards are pretty compelling.
Chose TravelBank
I have used Expedia.com, Travelocity.com, Delta.com, and many other sites/apps. None of them offer the employee incentive to save the company money and none of them, to my knowledge, sync with Expensify. TravelBank just makes booking business travel easier for both the end user …

I traveled every Monday through Friday for six months to NYC. Hotels are mad expensive and Airbnb was previously not accepted as a suitable lodging option. Once my company implemented Rocketrip, I was able to not only save money by staying at Airbnb but I was also making a ton of money by saving my company money. I was able to find convenient and affordable lodging in NYC, which is seldom possible and was awarded for it! There really is no downside to Rocketrip and I'm amazed that more companies don't use it. For those who are always out to get SPG/Bonvoy/Hilton points, you are still able to do so!

The company-wide implementation of TravelBank greatly increased the efficiency of our expense reimbursement process. It mitigated many pain points such as errors, inconsistencies, and missing information in our manual Excels that were very hard to version control and track through the approval/reimbursement process. Overall, TravelBank has made all of our lives easier!

Cons
  • More options to cash out Rocketrip points.
Read full review
  • Expanding the hotel offerings - they already have a huge inventory, but it would be great to have more AirBnB-like options
  • I've found particularly with flights that the employee rewards are much less - I realize that is just a function of airfare costs, but it feels like most of the time I need to go over budget
  • Add Uber and Lyft options

I have had 2 instances where the hotel double charged me and it took months to get back. I was never given a reason why and no one followed up with me -- I just got the money in my account one day and would have never known had I not been looking at my account that day,

Works Recipe scanning is simple. It allows you to easily track and manage your expenses. Automatic debit collection. Tax calculation and information are simple. Support for mobile applications. Expensify is a highly automated expense calculator that detects and computes all expenses stored in the system. There is no need to add a single transaction. It also allows you to edit data if you discover an incorrect transaction. Overall it was a great experience with Expensify but create glitches.

Return on Investment
  • It has helped our organization save a small but discernable margin on travel expenses.
Read full review
  • I'm not in the finance department, but I'd guess our travel spend per employee has reduced since we started using TravelBank.
  • We now have one travel supplier, with flights and hotels paid from a central account, rather than everyone booking through a variety of channels with their own card. In case of emergency, the company knows which flight you're on, which hotel you're staying at.
