Budgetly has saved us a lot of time

Budgetly has been fantastic. Their Support team is very professional and flexible, providing ongoing training and support whenever we need it. I definitely recommend them to anyone using petty cash cards.

PROS

We were previously using Vascoe Pay cards (petty cash cards) and our staff couldn’t upload receipts with these. This meant we had to send a report to staff each month and then reconcile everything manually, however sometimes transactions were missing if they hadn't settled yet etc. Budgetly now allows our staff to upload receipts immediately via the app and we have real-time reporting on everything. We've saved at least a day a month in admin work and even more for our teams.

CONS

It would be helpful to be able to select certain date ranges when syncing transactions to Xero.

Reason for choosing Budgetly

We were introduced to Budgetly by another company that's using it and really liked what we saw when we looked into them. It looked very easy to use and we loved that users could download the app and upload their receipts in real-time.

Reasons for switching to Budgetly

Our old process involved a lot of manual reporting and reconciliation with minimal visibility.

Vendor Response

Thank you for your feedback, Channy, we're so glad we're able to help you save lots of time in manual admin work.

Budgetly solved our problems

Before Budgetly, we had about a dozen credit cards and a centralised spreadsheet. Each month, we were meant to fill it out with each transaction (how much, what it was for etc.), however our Accounts team usually had to chase up multiple people with missing information every month. We don't have to worry about any of that anymore

PROS

Given how flexible Budgetly is, users now don’t have to worry about manually filling in spreadsheets and we’ve saved a lot of time on admin work. Staff were often sharing cards etc however we don't have to worry about card security anymore. We've also saved at least a day a month in admin work.

CONS

I honestly can't think of anything we don't like about Budgetly.

Reason for choosing Budgetly

I was actually in a meeting with someone who was using Weel (previously DiviPay). I looked into them and while doing so, found Budgetly. I liked what Budgetly did and booked in a demo. After the demo, the interface and flexibility was great so we signed up.

Vendor Response

Hi Darren, we're so glad you're saving time with Budgetly and it's making managing expenses easy for you and your team. If you have any ideas on how we can help even more please don't hesitate to let your account manager know.

Our experience with this software has been positive overall.

Saved time and money

We needed approval for spending from directors before Budgetly. Booking flights and accommodation is much easier now and no more reimbursements for personal spending

PROS

Saved time and a lot of hassle, particularly with flights. BPAY and direct transfers were very time-consuming. No more resistance with medical services. Very responsive and very helpful support. Very client focused

Budgetly's great so far

It's been very easy to use and we've had fantastic support, especially when we were getting things set up.

PROS

We were looking for an easier way to manage our expenses which we've found with Budgetly. We now have more control over what people can spend, more visibility on what they're spending and less admin work around reimbursements etc.

CONS

So far, Budgetly has done everything we need it to do. No real cons at this point.

Reason for choosing Budgetly

Volopay charged based on the volume of transactions which didn’t appeal to us as the cost-to-benefit wasn’t there. It also had less control over actual spending and setting limits etc.

Reasons for switching to Budgetly

Concur was quite clunky and a little too complex for what we needed it for.

Vendor Response

Thanks for your review, Gareth. Glad that you're finding it so easy to use, our product team will be very happy to hear that!

Budgetly saving time over 15 childcare centres

The support we've received has been great and we're saving a significant amount of time by not having to chase staff/centres for receipts etc.

PROS

We have an individual account set up for each of our 15 childcare centres, each with a few cards. Everything is now much more centralised and we can easily see all of our accounts in one spot. Budgetly has saved us at least one day per week, per centre as we no longer have to chase receipts and manually reconcile all of this.

CONS

At the moment, there's nothing that we don't like about Budgetly.

Reasons for switching to Budgetly

It's been a lot easier to deal with someone who's not based overseas, Budgetly has been great.

Vendor Response

Thanks for your review, Jacqueline! We're so glad that Budgetly has helped facilitate the running of your 15 childcare centres and look forward to continue supporting you.

Budgetly Review

We were using two different providers prior to Budgetly and their online platforms/functionality quite limited. Since moving to Budgetly, we've saved 5-10 hours per week across the business with smoother processes in place for all frontend staff using the cards as well as backend staff who had previously worked on reconciling receipts etc. Through being able to track spending across the business, we've significantly reduced overspending in our SIL houses and are now able to better incorporate budgets etc into our strategic planning for our business.

PROS

User-friendly platform with functionality that allows us to create what we need in existing systems.

CONS

Creating budgets/cards/users can get a little confusing when working out the requirements between them all

Reasons for switching to Budgetly

Limited functionality, Budgetly provides far more flexibility to the point that we can enter what we want on our cards etc.

Vendor Response

Thank you for your review Ryan, we are so glad that Budgetly is proving useful and saving you time and money as that's what we aim to do.

Kismet Healthcare

The training and onboarding process was excellent. We were provided 1to1 training, customer help videos and free telephone support. We've barely needed to call since the initial training though.

PROS

We no longer have to do any expense claims or reimbursements. We issue cards whenever we want and all spending is controlled and tracked.

CONS

Only thing we've found is we still use a CC for google paid search spend. Otherwise we've been able to remove all other credit cards from the business.

Reason for choosing Budgetly

We considered Weel but the Budgets functionality in Budgetly was much more powerful plus we wanted to issue physical cards.

Vendor Response

Thank you for your review Mark! We're so glad we've eliminated the need for claims / reimbursements for you. I've also passed on your feedback re the things you still use your CC for to our Product team.

Saved us 38 hours a week

We've saved a lot of time with Budgetly! Our staff are now accountable for their spending and it's made our lives a lot easier.

PROS

We love that we can issue both physical and virtual cards. Budgetly has meant we have very little journaling to do and our expense management process is a lot easier.

CONS

I’d love to be able to amend categories/GST from the transaction menu instead of going into each transaction at a time.

Reason for choosing Budgetly

Having the option of both physical and virtual cards made this an easy choice.

Budgetly has saved us at least 5 days a month

Budgetly has made things so much easier. We can now issue cards and get full visibility over our expense management with a click of a couple of buttons.

PROS

Budgetly is absolutely wonderful. It’s amazing to have instant cards when we need them. Had we not moved over to Budgetly, we would still have a time-consuming process wasting time. We wouldn’t have known what was possible and how much better the process could be. No more reconciling and no more dealing with the banks.

CONS

I would love to see an integration with QuickBooks.

Reason for choosing Budgetly

I was having breakfast with a friend who had just signed up and showed me and I absolutely loved the potential it had.

Budgetly's amazing

10/10 customer service, we've loved using it.

PROS

Having multiple cards now means we can operate in multiple places at the same time without these time delays and had to manually process receipts etc. This is now a lot more efficient and saves us between 1-2 hours each and every day. We get instant access to transactions in the portal, massive time savings and it’s very reasonably priced. Having multiple cards on one account is very handy when there are multiple people out on the road. Being able to top up budgets straight away is perfect as we can get funds to staff when they need it. Budgetly is also really secure and we’re not worried about our funds going missing as the risk of getting scammed etc is a lot lower.

CONS

No real cons at the moment, Budgetly does everything we need it to do.

Budgetly's amazing

It's been amazing. Their customer service is great with very fast response times, we have full visbility over what we're spending and it's easy to track if our staff haven't uploaded a receipt.

PROS

Budgetly allows us to easily capture receipts, monitor the balances on our cards and really understand what we're spending money on. Being able to integrate with Xero has been amazing and their customer service is 10/10. We've saved at least 5-6 hours a week in admin work.

CONS

We'd love to be able to utilise an API however we're aware that this is likely something we'll be able to do in future.

Reason for choosing Budgetly

We're loving Budgetly

As a small school, it was very difficult to get cards with our bank for individuals as they had to be an approved signatory for the actual business account. We tried pre-paid cards for a little bit as well, but these were hard to maintain as it wasn’t straightforward to top them up, hard to get statements etc. A clunky process. This is now such an easy process and a really good fit.

PROS

Not having to worry about reimbursements is amazing. we've always had great support, very responsive. The value for us is in the time we’ve saved that means we can focus on other tasks. We’ve saved at least 3 to 4 hours a week.

CONS

Nothing major comes to mind, however receipt reminders would be amazing to help chase up staff who haven’t uploaded their receipts yet.

Budgetly has been amazing. We know have transparency over what our staff are spending and no longer have to rely on manually reconciling receipts etc every month. I can call Budgetly straight away and get help as soon as I need it, great customer support.

PROS

Ease of access across the platform and no restrictions on who can actually use the cards. Express Post makes it easy to get physical cards in a couple of days and virtual cards are available instantly. We've saved at least 2 days a month in admin work alone.

CONS

I'd love to be able to set funds to specific budgets, not from the main bank account. As we have multiple different sources of funds coming in from participants' families etc, this would help provide more information to our clients.

Reason for choosing Budgetly

We had gone to several banks to try and find a solution however they just didn't exist. We then found Budgetly and it's solved our problems.

Budgetly has been a life saver

Before budgetly, we were using gift vouchers for our staff which was a pain as we could only buy five per person, so had to get multiple people to purchase these. Unfortunately these gift vouchers provided no oversight on what people were spending and while we could tell them how much they could spend, we had no way of enforcing this. With Budgetly, we’re now able to set up specific budgets and allocate spending rules when we like.

Easy to use budget management tool

I have had a few minor issues with the App so far - declined card (which seemed to be a problem for a large proportion of their clients at the time) which happened at the most inopportune time. My phone app showed that I was not affiliated with any accounts (subsequently having access to no money to draw upon). Both my account managers and the help desk showed that I was. Help desk was prompt in helping with the problem.

PROS

The program is easy to set up and commence using. Users are allocated specific budgets that they can draw from. Changing between them prior to making purchases is easy. Being able to upload photos of the receipts for accounting purposes is great - all too easy to lose or damage paper copies when on the road.

CONS

The notification for uploading receipts immediately after making a purchase has lost the link to the phone camera letting you complete the action from the reminder notice, instead having to use the main app itself.
