Emburse Reviews & Product Details

After a period of 6 months of use, one gets used to it – the system with quick interaction, without interruptions, history of sent invoices, keywords remain in memory to speed up the filling of information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

For travel allowances, the system is immediately configured with automatic deductions for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I very rarely receive them during my business trips. This means I have to check each day separately to record them correctly. This represents 5 clicks per day - if there are 10 days, then 50 clicks, and additionally at the end, I have to check again if I have checked correctly. A simpler ergonomics is needed, for example, an overview of the entire month, where only the individual boxes of certain days would need to be checked - this way it could be filled out more quickly and with better visibility of all the days.

Helpful to be able to drag invoices to the platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The auto extract data feature is not useful. Often it does not correctly extract the data. It is very unreliable and I will not use it. I press Skip to avoid any mistakes. The OCR does not always correctly pull information from W-9 and other documents. I will not use the email option either. Some major updates need to be considered for the emailing of invoices as well as the data extraction option. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I was amazed at how easy it was to use, and the minimum number of keystrokes required to get an expense in. The OCR was absolutely spot on, and the app was really intuitive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I had no complaints, I had no issues at all submitting my expenses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Empires expense is easy to use and is very convenient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Common improvement opportunities include a simpler expense-entry workflow, fewer clicks for receipts and allocations, clearer error/validation messages, better mobile usability, faster receipt matching/OCR, easier handling of split expenses and funding accounts, and a more intuitive approval/status view.

I like how they have updated the main page to make it even more simple to navigate. The site continues to get expense refunds back quickly. They also made customer service easier to contact and they have continued to help me. I was recently locked out of my account and they got back to me almost instantly and fixed the problem. I have also noticed that they have helped organize the funding sources that I use and I no longer have to manually input the numbers, which is very nice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While it is still very easy to use and organized, some of the more complicated receipts are hard to input. Also, there have been a few times the website has crashed while I am in the middle of implementing a reimbursement, and my progress was not recovered an dI had to start again. These would be some minor fixes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It gets easier once you've used it several times. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are different grant fund accounts associated with our department (History) in the College of Arts and Letters at San Diego State University. Sometimes the support from a particular grant fund is great and sometimes it is not. It all depends on which grant specialist is designated to that specific grant.

It's very simple to submit receipts and create expense reports. I use the web interface and submit my receipts mostly via e-mail, but occasionally drag-and-drop documents directly into reports on the web portal. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I was told that including certain information (such as the expense account and purchase description) in the email with the receipt would automatically populate that information in the report associated with the receipt, but that has never worked for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like how Emburse Expense Enterprise keeps a nice record of everything related to my expenses. It's super easy to use, especially with so many easy categories to allocate expenses to. For transportation, there's flight, ground transportation, mileage, etc., and if I use Uber or Lyft, the receipt automatically uploads to my Emburse account. Plus, I can easily take a picture of receipts with the app on my phone and upload them. The initial setup was super easy, both the desktop version and the app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I've had a couple of instances where I can't find the receipt to allocate to my expense. For example, I upload the receipt and I incorrectly selected a different receipt, but when I go back to find the correct one, I can't find it. I think it would be helpful to have a history/library of previously uploaded or utilized receipts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Automatic extraction of info from receipts, integration with corporate credit card, easy to work in multiple/international currencies. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Navigation and action buttons particularly of sub-items/details was a little unclear; sometimes thought that I might inadvertently delete or cancel a whole expense item or even a report when finished entering some sub-itemizations or details. One minor issue is there was no apparent way to enter a transaction date separate from the posting date from my card statement, which wasn't an issue in this case but could be problematic if daily limits are in play.

The organization is very nice and easy to use. I especially appreciate the receipt matching automatically if you have previously uploaded it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

A lot of transactions aren't synced properly and will show up late and then warn you that you're submitting an expense past due. In reality it may be past due, but an expense can't be submitted if it doesn't show up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
