Emburse Makes It So Easy!

I use it to upload receipts and create and submit expense reports for my approved business travel. I use it mainly on my PC.

Functionality

Pros:

The user interface is designed very intuitively, which makes it easy to use. It also provides multiple ways to upload your receipts for expense reports.

Cons:

There is nothing that I really dislike. The only little thing that is cumbersome is that there seem to be two ways to attach receipts to an expense report, each of which is very easy to select without realizing it, so it can get inadvertently duplicative, making it necessary to backtrack.

Good details that allow you to initiate your pre-approval request. Get updated credit card transaction information. Very easy to reconcile and upload supporting documentation for review and final payment disbursements.

Pros:

As the person who books travel for our entire leadership team, I love that I can go to one reliable source and search all travel options. Trying to create itineraries that meet all their schedules is challenging but this software enables me to look at all the options in one place. We originally used it for airfare but have come to rely on it for hotels and car rentals as well. I also have to give a "10" to their customer service. They are prompt, friendly and reliable. I never have to wait for an answer and when we need to make changes they take right over and get it done.

Cons:

To be honest, I really can't think of a "con". I have never had an issue with Certify Travel & Expense.

Emburse Makes Life Easy

We realized both a tangible return on investment financially, we have also achieved a return on investment through increased time management and productivity that Emburse Certify Expense allowed. A typical dedicated approver could review an average of 30 paper submissions compared to an average of 80 electronic submissions.

Functionality

Pros:

The software is simple and user friendly. Repetition helps our users become comfortable. Submissions are instant and time spent both creating the submission and approving the expense has been considerably reduced. Emburse Certify Expense truly makes life easier for all!

Cons:

We would love to see a complete remodel of the mobile app and interface. The mobile app is wonderful for taking photos but does make it harder to complete reports, especially if there are any errors that require attention. The mobile app also still seems to miss some taxes on hotels, shorting the submitter unless caught by the approver. The website itself, the desktop version, experiences high traffic and lag times, resulting in time outs or complete errors. While reporting this issue to the Support Side, I've only encountered one unhelpful representative but the majority of the time our support emails are handled quickly and professionally. The website issues haven't been as severe in the month of November at time of review, so perhaps they've made some upgrades or changes internally that resolved the issue.

Reasons for choosing Emburse Expense Professional

Emburse Certify Expense provided a more customizable experience and met more of our needs than the competitors.

Solid Expense Management Platform

We implemented Certify as our first digital solution to our manual expense reporting problem. It was fairly easy to setup and get users submitting reports. We're able to put basic parameters in place that we need to verify accuracy (pictures of receipts, date restrictions on submissions, category classifications). We've reviewed Certify's AmTrav add-on product as well, which can prove useful for additional compliance and travel booking ease.

Functionality

Pros:

We liked how Certify delivered on all the basics we'd expect out of an expense management platform: we set up users, multiple approval levels, and restrictions on what types of receipts could be submitted. The approvals are pretty easy, as the software assists you by notating which receipts are out of policy.

Cons:

I wish the fields that we can set on receipts were able to be slightly more customizable. I also wish the reporting functionality was a little improved. While we can get to the data we need, it takes several clicks and the UI can be improved.

Certify is user-friendly. It takes some time to implement and set up, but once it's done, it works very well. Plus we're able to configure it to meet our needs. It smooths the expense reimbursement process, has good reporting setup. The customer support team is very responsive and helpful

Cons:

It would be great if if can integrate with more accounting systems. Right now we have to manually download the excel file and upload to our accounting system, which can be time-consuming. We like the allowance function, but we can only set up 1 allowance within the same timeframe, hope it can be fixed.
