But definitively place for improvement on user friendliness.

Traveling internationally it os difficult to specify which currency is used in the expenses. I needed to convert every receipt to US dollars to make sure the expense report correctly reimbursed me.

Since launching this in our company I'm only getting positive feedback. It's easy to use and the team behind it is amazing.

Being able to do everything from my cellphone is amazing.

My expenses review is the reason why I'm using advataxes. Still some work to do in order to improve the software but nice in general.

No mobile app to support this. Requires manual manipulation for currency exchange.

Some drop downs are very repetitive. I'm sure they serve a purpose but time consuming.

Once you learn these things, this isn't an issue. It's just more of a barrier for the initial user experience and flow when you are getting to know the software.

It is pretty straight forward. Really, you are forcing a minimum of characters.

But with some of the new changes and associated costs, it is becoming difficult to justify.

Drop down menus with useful categories. Developers open to customization/corrections.

Really positive so far, been using it for five years (both the desktop and more recently  the smartphone application).

It is difficult to upload receipts into the website.

Globaly, Advataxes was used to refund some travel costs and it worked pretty well.

Also the approbation workflow works without the need to print or send any email, that's great.

The ability to use an application on your smartphone to prepare and submit expense reports for the company is really helpful.

Generally good, but pricing is a concern going forward.

It is very user friendly and and easy to learn.

Good help from the support team whenever required.

I have a lot of expenses report to review and the system is so easy to use. The detail of the expenses is there and easy to open and approuve.

The modification of the dates is hard to do and sometimes we need to cancel some entries.

Unable to forward a pdf invoice received in an email (from an hotel). No app on iPhone so not able to use without Internet access.

It helps to make the work easier without the use of a printer. Reduced the work load as cell phones are used by everyone all the time.

Easy to navigate, you  can save reports and continue later.

Easier approval process. Very good customer services.

Ability to directly save invoices into the system from a camera. Automatic calculation of mileage.

Lag between operations needs more options, not the same KM between results… need more boxes to be filled when you travel. When you have to stop more than one place.

User friendly and simplicity help me to encourage me in the future.

Centage provides strong customer service and the product has been terrific value for our organization.

User friendly interface and reports. Good drill down to get to source documents.

Difficult to set up for the first time. Very limited when you have to export to Excel because all data is exported as text format.

I love the analytics maestro, and this software is a good fit for SMEs.

When Planning Maestro came out, we had the option then to move to something else but we stayed with Centage as PM is a solid budgeting and planning tool. It has good functionality and good support.

Budget Maestro was recommended to us by Syspro. It works well and enhances our ERP system and provides greater reporting capability.

Not sure as we have not researched lately other options.

My only complaint is the amount of formatting I have to do when exporting a report to a spreadsheet.

Our budget is now more secure and robust, and due to the product's user friendliness it was fairly easy and quick to set up.

The product provided a very friendly user interface that was easy to navigate - even for people who did not receive formal training. The reports were clean and easy to follow.

I do like the preview of the expense and how it will look like on the P&L. It really helps me make sure that my spread method is correct.

I love the way this product is so easy to use and track all of my spending. I don't know what I would do without it.

Ease of use is super important. Reporting is good and I love the dump into Excel for more slicing and to import.

We greatly appreciate the flexibility Budget Maestro offers our nimble team to make changes on the fly and seamlessly integrate with our ERP system to ensure financial data is accurate and up to date.

Too business support management even when someone lacks with a bit in attention to detail allowing for easy corrections and edits.

We have been using the software for about 7 years  and it has been extremely helpful for our reporting.

Their support team is always available to help you through any questions or difficulties you encounter.

I like the ease of use and the ability to eliminate my dependence on Excel.

Overall it has been widely accepted within our organization and has helped improve the efficiency and accuracy of our budget process at DEA.

Participate in any demos the software company provides of its software then get them to show you how their software would handle your situation, your unique or most difficult budgeting issue.

It takes anywhere from 1-3 minutes to run any report. Also, the inability to create a version and it to show up in all plans.

Also impressive is their what-if scenarios, the robust capabilities of their driver functionality, and Analytics Maestro (their Excel plug-in for user friendly desktop reporting).

I would recommend budget maestro to other organizations as a useful budgeting tool.

Good integration with many ERP and account systems. Accessible anywhere through an internet connection with any browser-based device.
