Nothing.

**What do you dislike about Emburse Expense Professional (formerly Certify Expense)?**

{"I am extremely disappointed with Emburse Expense Professional. The software looks outdated, as if it was built in 2006 with only minimal UI changes since then. I find this embarrassing for a billion-dollar company to have such a product on the market.","The sales process was misleading, and the claims made by the salesperson were untrue. This has left me feeling deceived by the company.","The software is expensive, at $3,000 a year for just 15 people, which I find crazy.","The setup process was challenging, primarily because the salespeople rushed us. Importing data proved to be a significant pain.","There was an inability to connect with Chase credit cards, despite being assured beforehand that it would work. This was a major issue since they suggested we get different cards instead of resolving the problem.","The software was ineffective and solved none of our expense management issues. It added more time to our workflows, ultimately slowing everyone down.","The user interface is poorly designed and feels like complete trash. Overall, the software feels clunky and unproductive."}
