Spendesk Reviews & Product Details

What I value most is the control and visibility Spendesk gives me, without slowing the teams down. Employees can spend within clear limits, I can approve what matters in just a few clicks, and I get a real-time view of company spending. Overall, it gives my team back a lot of time.

There’s very little I dislike. My main wish is for Spendesk to expand its local coverage to more countries, such as Norway, where we also operate. Having the same level of local support there that we have in our other markets would make it even more valuable for us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Spendesk has genuinely automated our full workflow from procurement to payment. Requests get routed for approval automatically, cards and payments are issued right from the platform, and invoices flow straight through to reconciliation without manual chasing. What used to be a fragmented process across email, spreadsheets and separate approval steps is now one connected flow, which has saved our finance team real time each month and given us much better visibility into spend as it happens rather than after the fact.

The initial integration with Business Central was a bit bumpy, with some setup and mapping issues that took time to work through. It has since stabilized and now runs smoothly, but the early rollout could have been more straightforward. Beyond that, there is not much to complain about, most of what we needed was there from the start." Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like how Spendesk is really usable and intuitive. The app is great for making approving expenses and adding receipts far easier. It's super useful to have all our accounts payable in one place. The fact that it integrates very well with NetSuite simplifies our month-end process significantly. We use Spendesk across our group entities for bookkeeping, expenses, approval requests, and invoice payments, which helps us keep everything clearly documented.

Sometimes the Netsuite connection is a bit dodgy, either not working or syncing randomly. It doesn't always work without giving a good reason or takes hours to export expenses. It's also occasionally frustrating to try to get skilled support beyond what the account manager can provide, as it's sometimes hard to get hold of the technical team directly and instead have to discuss issues via an account manager or intermediary.

Individual card management is excellent, especially the ability to cap spending or block card spend entirely. The virtual card and subscription cards are also really useful, since you can approve a recurring charge once and then track it directly to a single user. The PO and approval workflows are strong as well, and they fit nicely alongside the card controls. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some of their filtering is not consistent from screen to screen so where you can slice and filter on one tab you can't on others. Or you can't sort A-Z or by date, I find this particularly frustrating in the payment section if trying to group approve payment for multiple invoices on one supplier. I also frustrated that it doesn't have a inbuilt integration for QuickBooks Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love that Spendesk is a very intuitive platform, making it easy to use for both the finance team and other employees. I also appreciate how it helps me be fast in my work and how it keeps improving. The Spendesk AI connect feature really helps me avoid mistakes, like telling me when to double-check. It's super easy to upload invoices and manages aspects like budgets or subscriptions. Additionally, whenever I have a question, they quickly help me get a reply, which is really helpful. The initial setup was also super easy, adding to the overall positive experience, and I rate it a 9 out of 10 for recommending to others. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There aren't many things that don't work well with Spendesk, but there are a couple of things I'd like to see improved. It would be awesome to have a declaration feature when entering your own receipt—that'd be pretty cool. Also, I think it might be helpful if they combined the invoice and bookkeeping settings to save a step in the process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy access to multiple expense claims across the business, along with clear visibility into company spending. I feel we are getting our money's worth as we have been using a system that has allowed the finance function to have transparency over the business spending of all its employees ensuring adequate budgets have been met and we can ensure seamless reimbursement on a mass scale saving time spent by them on manual receipt uploads and reviewing of expense claims Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It needs better dashboarding. I want to be able to see every facet of company spending in one place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ability for our different teams to track their budgets in real time. It's honestly been a game changer for us. The platform is easy enough for all team members, including our external bookkeepers, to understand and work with which has made our payables process much more straight forward, simpler, faster and more accurate. The integration with Xero makes reporting and month end accurate and quick. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The AI is good overall, but it still misses some duplicates. A big improvement would be if it could not only detect duplicates more reliably, but also catch duplicates across legal entities. That would help us prevent errors, strengthen cross-entity controls, and avoid unnecessary costs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It automatically nudges approvers to approve invoices and expenses once they’re submitted, and it lets us categorise everything by cost centre. It also auto-records the invoice information, so we don’t have to type it all out ourselves. Instead of us having to chase approvers it, which saves a lot of finance team on the review stage.

I also like how it's very easy to upload my own expenses and it will auto categorise it and send it for review in seconds

We find the pricing very competitive with the market as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The integration with NetSuite was quite clunky and took us a long time to get working during the initial onboarding. However, now that we’ve got it set up properly, the performance and overall experience have improved from the finance team’s perspective, especially when it comes to the integration and moving costs over to NetSuite.

It makes accounting and invoice management incredibly efficient and easy to handle, significantly reducing the time I spend on these tasks. Support is very responsive and genuinely helpful whenever I need it. The MCP also makes the tool even easier and faster to use overall. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It would be great if it offered native integrations with more accounting software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find Spendesk very intuitive, quick, and easy to use. It helps me keep control of receipts and follow up on uploads, making sure cost centers and expense accounts are assigned without having to chase people all the time. I like that team members can have their own virtual or physical cards without the bureaucracy of requesting cards through a standard bank, and that department managers can see and track purchases. The Odoo integration transfers data easily and saves hours of work. Invoice control has helped us a lot; it makes it easier to keep track of invoices instead of forgetting or delaying manual tracking, which can delay month-end closing and reporting. The initial setup was super easy, and transferring money into the account is already really quick. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

When suppliers send a proforma before the final invoice, Spendesk doesn’t distinguish a quotation from an invoice when I start a payment from “New request.” I’d like a separate payment flow that lets me transfer the money first and upload the final invoice later. I’d also like an open-banking feature to make transfers into the account easier, although the process is already quick. I’ve also had some discrepancies with Odoo payment exports, which seem specific to the integration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
