Stampli offers software to run any procure-to-pay (P2P) process — and Billy, an AI employee, to operate it. The platform unifies Procurement, Invoice Management, and Payments in one system that automates AP while keeping teams in control.
SAP Concur is much reliable solution compared to peers in the market. In addition to reliability, the capabilities, future roadmap, flexibility and integration with ERP landscape makes it a simpler choice, keeping the architecture clean and following our SAP architecture …
Concur is not fully integrated into SAP ecosystems. If the users have implemented SAP extensively, we could see a big advantage of Concur against these expense and payroll management systems.
We use AmTrav for travel booking and SAP Concur for the expense reporting and approvals. SAP Concur may be a better solution for travel booking, however I have not used it.
SAP Concur is the best choice if you are already in the SAP ecosystem. Other solutions do not generally provide anything more than SAP Concur and from an integration perspective, it is more seamless to use SAP Concur if your main ERP is SAP S4/HANA. This is why we use SAP Concur.
I was not involved in the product evaluation. However, the integration of travel booking, travel expense recording, expense reimbursement payments and status tracking are a high positive for this product. This product allows the employee to set up their own profile, integrates …
I have previously used HRT and indigenously developed software for this. They are no match to SAP Concur as the procedures are lengthy, cumbersome, error prone and lacks visibility. Not to miss out mentioning that the UX is not friendly, despite regularly upgrading the product …

Tipalti was not system friendly to what we needed (syncing with NetSuite) and the implementation process was frustrating. We experienced delays and no responses from their team.
Stampli has been the complete opposite! It's user friendly, from approvers to coders, reasonably …
I think its easier to use Stampli or to be able to edit something if you make an error in Sage Intacct sometimes you cannot correct them and on the books everything looks messy, that's why I love Stampli because you can double-check everything before to be authorized.
We selected Stampli due to the OCR and AI technologies that captures invoice data in real time plus the easy user interface. In comparing the two systems Stampli just appeared to outperform Bill.com.
All [of] the features are very easy to use and self-explanatory. Most of the time it remembers all your previous invoices how you coded and do itself. You just need to double-check. Definitely improved the AP process. You won't forget to pay the invoices. It will solve your …
Stampli's ease of use far exceeds that of Bill.com or Divvy. Almost every click is recorded in the audit trail and navigating within the portal is intuitive. Each tab is set up in order to follow the process flow, making even the newest of users comfortable.
SAP Concur is great for large organizations because of it's built in approval process functions. It is great tool for expense reports and any company where employees need to book travel. I imagine that the tool would be more tricky to use for those who are less technically savvy since there are many tabs and it is sometimes tricky to navigate.
Stampli is best for a compony that has a large amount of payables. It stores everything in one place and reduces the need to keep paper copies of everything. It is less appropriate in a situation where payment is due at the time of services since it is sent via USPS mail and you have to take into account the mail processing times.
Data syncing between the mobile app and the web platform may occasionally experience a little delay. That is not a major problem, but it can cause small inconsistencies in real-time data.
Concur's setup features may seem a little complicated to certain administrators.
Concur offers a number of powerful reporting services, but some users might want more in-depth options for tailoring reports to their own business requirements.
Now that we are fully on Concur, switching is not an option. Concur has become ingrained in our expense reporting process. Furthermore, Concur continues to improve its offering. Each month, they release updates and changes, many of which were client requested. Concur's constant evolution means it is adapting with my business
I cannot imagine going back to pre-Stampli processes. Our jobs in the Accounting department (not just AP) have all become more engaging because we've cut out so much mindless, non-value added work: data entry, signing checks, stuffing envelopes, stamping envelopes, etc.
I think it is very easy to use, especially once you are acquainted with it. I think the UX could be improved so some things, like accessing old reports, are more intuitive once you learn it though it is not difficult to replicate.
In prior years I would have given them a 9.5 for availability. Unfortunately in 2015 so far this rating has dropped to a 7 overall. We have experienced far too many interruptions - from admins to employees who rely on it for day to day booking of travel and submission of expense reports. Server errors, slow system response time and spinning wheels are too common place. Those things should be a rare occurrence, not a daily interruption.
While Conur still has great product offerings overall, they are currently not offering world class or best in class product (and customer service) availability. Remaining hopeful they step up and get their A game going again soon.
Performance-wise, it's good, loads pages quickly, and reports are highly accurate and easy to understand. Also, we can generate custom reports as needed, and we have integrated with a few other apps, and we have not seen any downgrade in performance.
I have never had to use customer support when using Concur Expense - the UX could be a bit nicer on the eyes or easier to understand, but there have never been any problems when using Concur Expense that I have had to ask or reach out to customer support to help me with anything.
We have a dedicated rep (who was also our implementation rep--they stay with you after implementation) who we can email whenever needed and meet with every quarter. There is a chat option within the software that gets responded to by a real person within minutes.
My Seniors were the ones who taught me about Concur. Concur Support team has sent me training links and answered me in their tickets too. Usually they are helpful and knows their stuff. There are times when webex meetings is conducted for reporting training. They were very patient and took down all the details from me.
There are different implementation teams for each module of the product you purchase, so implementation is not a 'one size fits all' environment. Also, the different implementation teams have different ways of doing things, so Concur could stand some standardization and streamlining in this area. A Project Manager can make or break an implementation so don't be scared to ask for a new one if things are rocky.
We lost an AP employee right as we were deciding to implement, so we had to speed up our timeline. We went from signing the contract to fully functional system within 4 weeks. We did not dedicate any more than 4 hours per week during the implementation.
Sirion One has very limited functionality. SAP Concur goes seamlessly with SAP. It generates the SAE file, which feeds the GL Posting. SAP Concur has huge network of all the travel partners providing multiple options and range depending on organization strategy. It is easily linked with Outlook calendar, prompting user for all travel related activities and news.
Stampli better suited our needs with the infrastructure we have in place, met our international and workflow requirements, required minimal integration set-up time without involving a 3rd party vendor, provided a tailored implementation process, and offered an all-inclusive month-to-month pricing structure.
This program has been very helpful, user friendly and has been a great asset to use to assist with time management. Not only are leadership involved with using this program but all staff as well. This is also a great way to hold each accountable. Easy startup with not many means for hands on training
It makes the entire process of expense management crystal clear and thus helps in maintaining the trust of the employees, and thereby having good rapport of the company among the employees.
It helps in detecting the duplicate bills, thereby saving lots of money of the company.
It also helps in payment audits and thereby it helps in improving the overall process.
