Abacus is the best tool for paperless expense reimbursements **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Gerard S. | Partner, Information Technology and Services, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 01, 2016 **What do you like best about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** I get receipts in one of two ways: a hard copy (i.e. retail store), or in email (i.e. online order). In the case of a hard copy, I open the Abacus mobile app, snap a picture with my phone, and create a new expense in a about 30 seconds. In the case of an email, I forward the receipt to the Abacus email address, open the website, and create a new expense right then and there. No paper forms, no scanning, no emails to personal email addresses that may or may not get looked at. **What do you dislike about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** Not a lot. Admittedly, I don't have a lot of basis for comparison, having never used an electronic expense account system like Abacus before. **Recommendations to others considering Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus):** If you are using paper at all for expense tracking, you're doing it wrong. **What problems is Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus) solving and how is that benefiting you?** In addition to saving time, business expenses are cash out of pocket, which impacts my family's bottom line. The quicker and easier it is to get reimbursed, the better off I am all-around. If I have to wait a month to get reimbursed for a business expense, it's a negative feeling overall. ### 2. Efficient and User Friendly **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Dan B. | Safety & Operations Coordinator, Retail, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 01, 2016 **What do you like best about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** My company has been using Abacus for a little over a year now and it has worked wonders in that short amount of time. I no longer have to keep a folder in my filing cabinet of receipts for reimbursement. I just buy what is needed for the company or a project I'm working on, take a picture of the receipt and upload it to Abacus. When the finance team gets around to it they reimburse me and the money goes right back into my bank account. **What do you dislike about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** The only thing I dislike is the limit. I have heard many co-workers complain about the reimbursement limit. However, if you're like me and submit your receipt immediately, this will not really be a problem. **Recommendations to others considering Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus):** Get it now and save yourself the headaches. **What problems is Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus) solving and how is that benefiting you?** Thanks to Abacus, the company I work for has freed up the finance and human resource's teams time on more important issues. ### 3. Abacus Review **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Taylor P. | Business Operations Intern, Computer Networking, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 01, 2016 **What do you like best about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** I like how I can easily upload receipt pictures to the site. In addition, I like how it allows me to report reimbursements so that people can keep track of how much we are spending. It is also useful how abacus remembers locations and vendors once they are submitted. **What do you dislike about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** I don'y like how I can't mass delete items, or create events to sort out purchases. It makes it more difficult for me to sort out through my receipts especially once I start massing them in the 100s. Having a simple way to delete them would make my life so much easier. Having a chat available between the organization users in abacus would allow me to talk to who is submitting their receipts and to clarify and questions about purchases. **Recommendations to others considering Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus):** I would sit down with your teammates and talk about how using the software will get you towards your goals. **What problems is Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus) solving and how is that benefiting you?** I am solving a clutter and reimbursement issue and I have realized that it would be beneficial to allow users to create events that other people can submit receipts to as as well. ### 4. Director of Talent **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Jeannie P. | Director of Strategic Partnerships, Food Production, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 01, 2016 **What do you like best about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** Ease and flexibility of the app especially when in a startup, colleagues are constantly having to reimburse things. Just the comfort in knowing that the expense will be taken care of is great. It's also great that other team members or leads can approve the expenses because it is time consuming. **What do you dislike about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** I dont know what triggers this, but sometimes the reimbursements take longer than expected. For larger purchases closer to $10k, these need to be paid out in a faster time period to the colleagues. Also, there are times, when coworkers might expense things too quickly, and theres no way to retract to expense except with them paying us back. I dont know if there is a simple revert button. **Recommendations to others considering Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus):** Revert button. Faster deposits into the bank. More alerts maybe to prompt leads to approve the expenses quicker. **What problems is Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus) solving and how is that benefiting you?** We dont want to provide everyone with a corporate card so this reimbursement system has been great. It's also very time consuming to approve things but its something that has to get done. If there was someway that somethings were automated, that would be great. ### 5. Great expense application. Best on the market **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Brandon C. | Senior Enterprise Account Manager, Internet, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 01, 2016 **What do you like best about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** Abacus integrates with my bank account and credit card and pulls in all of my expenses. This makes logging expenses insanely easy on the go. What used to take me a long time now is a breeze. True game changer for the professional on the go. **What do you dislike about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** Scanning receipts should be easier to do. Also, it gives me notifications on my iPhone and I have to manually swipe to "Skip" transactions in order to get rid of the notifications. Small frustrations, but all in all, still a great product. **Recommendations to others considering Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus):** Scope out your specific needs when evaluating software like Abacus. It may be a little pricier than most, but in our eyes, it's worth it. **What problems is Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus) solving and how is that benefiting you?** We are solving the frustrating problem of logging our expenses when we travel for business. Our accounting team has strict rules of having expense reports due every Friday. In the past, it used to be very frustrating and would legitimately take me 1-2 hours. And, I'd have to hold onto every little receipt. I've realized a humongous time saving and an overall better experience with ### 6. Abacus is simple and intuitive which makes the implementation and use easy. **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Derek F. | Operations Architect, Financial Services, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 01, 2016 **What do you like best about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** As an admin, the ease with which I can switch between my admin page and my personal page is great. The ability to make edits as I approve is great too. **What do you dislike about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** I accidentally uploaded a corporate cc expense receipt as a reimbursable and had to go through a rigmarole to correct outside of the system. Some control to verify a reimbursable before submitting for approval would have been helpful. **Recommendations to others considering Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus):** Some sort of workflow that identifies when an expense has been reconciled in Xero ahead of expense approval in Abacus. A two-way data flow could also be useful if expenses get recategorized after the fact so that Abacus reporting updates and matches Xero reporting exactly. **What problems is Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus) solving and how is that benefiting you?** We are gaining control over our expense management and bookkeeping process. Prior to Abacus, there were a lot of inquiries being sent to team members for business purpose (AKA expense category) for their purchases. Huge efficiency gain here. ### 7. Great, with a few software bugs. **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Lauren W. | Business Operations, Computer Software, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 01, 2016 **What do you like best about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** Customer support responds quickly; ability to get paid within just a couple days of when an expense is approved is wonderful for employees. UI is more intuitive than Expensify and you get paid a lot faster! **What do you dislike about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** The overall web app is quite buggy. They definitely have some kinks to work out, as I've experienced several issues with syncing chart of accounts categories with Xero, having to refresh a page to see an update I made, ability to upload multiple receipts limited, PDF shows up as only 1 page when there are 4 pages, etc. Also, would be nice if Abacus automatically imported our Xero chart of accounts instead of having to manually type in every expense category and match it to the chart of accounts. Would also be nice for foreign expenses to be able to upload two receipts - the credit card transaction as well as the actual receipt (not sure if Abacus currency converter is IRS compliant). Paying $9/month/user is great for active users, but if an employee expenses only a coffee one month, this could be 200% more than the expense they are getting reimbursed for. **What problems is Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus) solving and how is that benefiting you?** It is nice to know that in the event of an audit all of our receipts are there in Abacus. I can set parameters for when receipts are required. Very low admin work associated with Abacus. Much better than whatever else is on the market that I've experienced in past roles. ### 8. Time saving OCR technology and QBO Integration **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Annie A. | Director of Finance, Hospital & Health Care, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 01, 2016 **What do you like best about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** 1. The OCR technology is great, so much time is saved by not having to match the receipt to the expense, and it even remembers repeating charges so you don't have to assign the category everytime. 2. Seamless QBO integration with accrual expense recognition. 3. Very customizable and easy to setup, I spent almost a month trying to setup something that would work for us with Concur and they weren't able to do it. I did it myself on Abacus in a few hours. 4. Customer service is very responsive and takes suggestions for new features, there have been multiple items I have suggested over the last year that they later implemented. **What do you dislike about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** There is really nothing I dislike about the software. **What problems is Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus) solving and how is that benefiting you?** 1. Receipt management - can easily track and approve through their receipt view 2. Expense upload into QBO - Categories allow users to input information which later feeds into QBO accounts, rather than one accountant sifting through and categorizing everything. 3. Approval workflow ### 9. Review Abacus, flawless reimbursement **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Britney (Brit) B. | Senior Sourcer, Talent Attraction, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 01, 2016 **What do you like best about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** Prior to using Abacus, my company use to use their own internal system to expense items. The turnaround time for employees to get reimbursed took anywhere from 3-5 weeks. I love that Abacus has a short turnaround time, and we're reimbursed instantly within days without having to wait for it to be added onto the next paycheck. **What do you dislike about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** There is nothing that I dislike about this application. I have it right on my phone, can screenshot or take a picture of my receipts and upload it for my manager to approve. I haven't run into any issues thus far. **Recommendations to others considering Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus):** No recommendations. Abacus is flawless. **What problems is Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus) solving and how is that benefiting you?** As mentioned prior, we're solving the business problem of shortening the turnaround reimbursement time. Working within a consulting intermediary, you often need to expense a lot. I don't work on the client side, but it's crucial for my colleagues to get paid out instantly so they don't need to foot the bill absurd amounts. We're shortening the turnaround time by using Abacus, and have realized it's a lot easier for employees to submit expenses and get paid out. ### 10. Great Service for Startups! **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** James D. | Financial Analyst, Retail, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 01, 2016 **What do you like best about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** Simplicity on both the user end and the finance/accounting end to make submitting expenses quick and easy with valid receipt backup. Also the controls with multiple approvers is a great feature that reduces need for communication between employees/departments. **What do you dislike about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** I think there could be more controls around the amount submitted for expenses, e.g. it is very easy for employees to add an extra digit and submit a very large claim and then the claim has to be denied and re-submitted. If there was "are you sure?" you want to submit window that popped up when claims are submitted this could be helpful. **Recommendations to others considering Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus):** We evaluated Abacus versus expensify and decided that abacus is far superior and has satisfied all of our needs. **What problems is Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus) solving and how is that benefiting you?** We have cut down significantly on expense processing time and therefore saved significant finance/accounting time. We have also solved the problem of employees sitting on expenses for long periods of time because they do not want to put together claims manually and submit. ### 11. User friendly and efficient **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Kathleen F. | Registered Dietitian, Food & Beverages, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 01, 2016 **What do you like best about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** Abacus is a great way to submit any kind of work related expense. In previous positions when submitting milage was a daunting task, I rarely did it, likely losing out on a great deal of money. I love how user friendly the interface is; both on the computer and on my phone. **What do you dislike about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** Perhaps this is a result of how our company's account is set up specifically, but it would be great to be able to view total expenses in a specific category (we used to have this capability). It would also be nice if the "Merchant" field populated a little better; normally an error pops up saying a vendor can't be found, and then I have to override and enter a vendor free text. **Recommendations to others considering Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus):** Abacus is an easy and effective way to file expenses in various aspects of the job; professional development, travel, health budget, etc. **What problems is Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus) solving and how is that benefiting you?** Great way to keep up on expenses; it's easy to let them pile up. ### 12. Overall, very satisfied with Abacus and their customer service! **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Angela C. | Finance and Communication Administrator, Accounting, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 01, 2016 **What do you like best about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** I enjoy the simplicity of the program. It's easy for people to use and even those who aren't as savvy can use the app successfully. They are constantly adding new features and making improvements that our team appreciates. The app is very easy to use and quite convenient. Our employees generally enjoy the app and don't have many issues with it. This has been the easiest program to use out of all that we have tried. Customer support is quick to answer any questions that we may have and always very personable. They have found solutions to any problems that we have come across and are pretty prompt in their response. **What do you dislike about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** The only drawback I have with the program is that they dropped the processor that originally allowed us to integrate our specific company credit cards (Chase Ink). So every time I add an employee, they have to turn on a special feature that allows that specific card. They are very quick in this process, but that is a step I wish wasn't there. **Recommendations to others considering Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus):** If you are looking for a easy-to-use program that anyone can use (even our 80 year-old employee), this is the solution for you. **What problems is Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus) solving and how is that benefiting you?** This is simplifying our expense reporting process and allowing our employees to stay on top of their expenses. ### 13. Abacus is easy, visible, and fully-functional **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Ross L. | Customer Success Team Manager, Internet, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 01, 2016 **What do you like best about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** I'm only on the reporting side of expenses rather than the approval and reimbursing side, but from how I understand the product, I like the sharing, reviewing, and approval of expenses flow. As long as the approving agent is on his or her game, reimbursements turn around very quickly and the whole process is very visible to all parties involved. **What do you dislike about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** I wish I could upload multiple receipt images/expenses at one time. From a single business trip, I could have as many as 6-9 expenses to report and filing them one-by-one might make less sense than being able to upload multiple. **What problems is Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus) solving and how is that benefiting you?** Abacus is the best way we've found to aggregate, review, approve/deny, and reimburse expenses. We're a very small company (fewer than 50 employees) where everyone wears multiple hats. No one exactly takes the helm yet when it comes to expense analysis and careful spending management. Abacus helps our CFO/COO coordinate with payroll and also TriNet, our HR administrator, to log expense reports and reimbursements. ### 14. Seamless Expense Management **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** David C. | Engineering, Financial Services, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 01, 2016 **What do you like best about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** I really like how simple it is to report and expense, upload a picture and don't worry about it until it gets approved. **What do you dislike about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** Well, sometimes I forget about it and I feel like a shouldn't, either sometimes I forget about having to submit an expense or I forget to check to see if there is more information that I need to submit or as simple as if it got approved or not. **Recommendations to others considering Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus):** Don't think twice! Abacus is so simple to use that reporting an expense will be a thing of the past! **What problems is Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus) solving and how is that benefiting you?** Well for me it has been mostly controlling the expenses around recruiting (taking a candidate for coffee, dinner, etc.) or expensing the costs of internal meetings (one on ones at coffee shops, etc.) In terms of benefits, I now don't hesitate in going the extra mile when recruiting or maintaining a good team culture because I know that expense reporting is very easy. ### 15. Dead simple expensing software that every small business should look at. **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Ravi P. | Founder, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 01, 2016 **What do you like best about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** Easy to use, easy to setup. We started using a few years ago when they emailed us, and got it up and running in a few minutes. The auto-categorization of vendors into the right categories is nice. Pricing structure is very attractive to small businesses - you only get charged if people are actually using it. **What do you dislike about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** I've heard Expensify uses OCR / people to scan receipts, which I don't think Abacus does (I could be wrong). Would be a "nice-to-have" but Abacus still works great. There are some "recurring" expenses that many employees have - would be nice to have reminders or auto-generate them or something. Again, not a big deal. **What problems is Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus) solving and how is that benefiting you?** It's scaled with us well from 3 people when we started using it to 40+ people today. I've heard there are other solutions when you continue to grow that do a better job with things like travel that are starting to become bigger needs for our business. But we're still not quite there yet, so Abacus is great. ### 16. Great service. **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** 🖱 V. | Associate Director, Growth Marketing, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 17, 2017 **What do you like best about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** I love the email feature to upload receipts onto the platform for those that do not have the app. **What do you dislike about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** There is not anything I really hate. I am loving the service. **What problems is Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus) solving and how is that benefiting you?** There are times where it is confusing when selecting where the expense falls. ### 17. Easy and Fast Cash **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Automotive | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 10, 2017 **What do you like best about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** I can upload my bank statement making keeping track of my expenses super easy. **What do you dislike about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** Nothing. This is a very valuable tool for expense reimbursement. **What problems is Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus) solving and how is that benefiting you?** it's very easy to submit and get expenses approved with a fast turn around time. ### 18. Love this easy to use expensing app **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 17, 2017 **What do you like best about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** I love the features to email receipts into the system to have them available to expense. I love the new Trips feature for grouping expenses. I love the Android app so I can do my expensing immediately, no more receipts stack when I return home. **What do you dislike about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** once you have entered an expense, you cannot edit the amount. Sometimes I will "fat finger" the total. Once saved, it can't be edited. **Recommendations to others considering Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus):** super easy to use. Needs virtually no training **What problems is Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus) solving and how is that benefiting you?** quick business expensing ### 19. Abacus reimbursement tool. **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** David W. | Financial Due Diligence Analyst, Information Technology and Services, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 25, 2017 **What do you like best about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** Simple, consistent method for organisational reimbursement. **What do you dislike about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** No real thorns I can think of. Everything works as needed **What problems is Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus) solving and how is that benefiting you?** This allows us to effectively and in a timely manner reimburse our volunteers for outlays they are making for our events. It helps us track expenditures and our accounting. ### 20. Simple, Easy, Fool-Proof **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Biotechnology | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 17, 2017 **What do you like best about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** I use the Abacus app for all my expense reporting. I love how easy the interface is to navigate. **What do you dislike about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** I haven't come across anything that I really dislike enough to comment on. **What problems is Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus) solving and how is that benefiting you?** It gives me a great overview of what I'm spending. ### 21. User-friendly, good all-in-one option **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Lisa S. | Attorney, Law Practice, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** April 05, 2017 **What do you like best about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** Very user friendly, easy to figure out, especially for someone with not very advanced technological skills. I like how it integrates many needs into one. Very reliable operation. Data was safe and secure. More cost effective than hosting our own server. **What do you dislike about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** It has a somewhat dated look and not as seamless as other software I've used. Somewhat more expensive option, especially for a small firm. Has all the basic features that a firm needs but could use some more robust features. **What problems is Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus) solving and how is that benefiting you?** Entire firm can operate in this workspace, so everything is integrated. Helps to easily manage all data. Benefits are that everything is accessible on the cloud. ### 22. Good software with ease of use **Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Internet | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** September 08, 2017 **What do you like best about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** I like that Abacus is easy intuitive to use and it is relatively easy to submit receipts on the system. **What do you dislike about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** For recurring expenses I haven't found a way to copy/ duplicate the information instead of having to fill in the expense form from scratch again. **What problems is Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus) solving and how is that benefiting you?** It helps the company more efficiently track expense reimbursed. It helps me get my reimbursements back on a timely basis. ### 23.

So easy to use, love it! **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** jennie p. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 04, 2016 **What do you like best about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** I like the app on my phone. I use it all the time for the tracking and reimbursement of purchases I make for work. I take a picture of receipts for business expenses at the cash register and immediately open up Abacus and start my reimbursement process. I also really like the email notification that abacus purchases have been approved. **What do you dislike about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** I dislike the amount of time it takes to get money back into my personal bank account. I understand that both my supervisor and her supervisor both need to approve an expense before releasing funds are released. **What problems is Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus) solving and how is that benefiting you?** I am tracking how much money is spent purchasing ingredients for several early childhood cooking classes. Children are exposed to nutritious and delicious food at an early age, creating a desire to eat a variety of fruits and vegetables that will last a lifetime. ### 26.

We used Abacus Law which is completely customized for legal accounting. **What do you dislike about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** It takes quite a while to learn how to use the system.

It definitely requires training in its use. **What problems is Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus) solving and how is that benefiting you?** It allowed us to create quick and accurate invoices and billing statements. It just fits perfectly for law, especially because we work on a contingency basis and need to keep an organized record of all the costs we incur in each case, which is be thousands of dollars. ### 31.

Everyone seemed to have an ease of access and required little help with this program **What do you dislike about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** We didn't find too many things we didn't like sometimes it would run slower but that was probably computer speed. Besides the speed if you don't like easy programs, this wouldn't be the program you would like! **Recommendations to others considering Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus):** The ease of this programs was wonderful!!! Also accurate and made it easy to approve expenses.

It's really a huge step in what not that long ago was storing, cataloging and stapling hundreds of little receipts to expense forms. **What do you dislike about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** Nothing really. There have been some bugs, but the company has been really responsive in resolving them. I wish my boss approved my expenses faster.... **Recommendations to others considering Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus):** Link your bank account and credit cards. Take photos of receipts in the app as soon as you get them - then you can just throw them away! **What problems is Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus) solving and how is that benefiting you?** Everything about expense reporting has been simplified - however Im not approving anyone or dealing with reports so I can't speak for managers or accounting. ### 37.

I travel constantly and the Abacus App keeps me from falling behind **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Patrick G. | Senior Enterprise Account Executive, Computer Software, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 01, 2016 **What do you like best about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** Love the time I get back and bot having to carry a a rubber-band bound pile of receipts around in my suitcase. I have been using it for five months and I can already say I have forgotten what it was even like to do expenses before Abacus. **What do you dislike about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** Sometimes the receipt does not automatically match even if their is an expense already in there. but it does pretty well and OCR is a moving target. **Recommendations to others considering Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus):** Try it for yourself, you won't miss your old expense reports. **What problems is Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus) solving and how is that benefiting you?** Time. Time. Time. I travel four to five days a week and without the ability to snap a quick photo and let the app do the heavy lifting to assign it to my corp card expenses? I would be spending my Saturdays playing catch up on expense reports. ### 41. Claire's Asbacus Review **Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Claire C. | UX/UI Designer, Computer Software, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 01, 2016 **What do you like best about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** I like that it finds transactions automatically when you've linked a card. **What do you dislike about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** It was difficult to expense something that I knew was over budget. At my company, we can expense up to $35 (I think?) for gym reimbursement. My current gym charges $49 1x/year for maintenance, and I would have liked to at least be able to expense the first $35 of it. Our old software (Harvest) we could manually input an expense and attach a receipt. So even though the receipt read $49, I could input $35 to be reimbursed. This seems difficult in Abacus to do. Likewise, iTunes receipts come in in weekly chunks on my card, so it's difficult to pull out only a fraction of that bill. **What problems is Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus) solving and how is that benefiting you?** Occasional reimbursements. I haven't had any huge realizations since using Abacus. ### 42. Intuitive Expensing **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Internet | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 25, 2017 **What do you like best about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** The interface is super easy to use & uploading receipts is a breeze. It stays fairly up to date with my transactions and it's great that it gradually learns how to sort repeat vendors. **What do you dislike about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** I've had my card disconnect a few times, which creates a back log of expenses that I've already submitted. **What problems is Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus) solving and how is that benefiting you?** Keeping track of spending & seeing which sort of purchases we're spending most on. ### 43. Employee expense app **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Michael C. | Associate, Real Estate, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** May 30, 2017 **What do you like best about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** Ease of use, mobility, automation of receipt filling **What do you dislike about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** Sometimes gets dates wrong. Poor suggestions/prompt feature. **What problems is Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus) solving and how is that benefiting you?** Easy to expense on the go, receipts don't take up space. ### 44. Abacus - Straight and to the point **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** David T. | Systems Administrator, Information Technology and Services, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 01, 2016 **What do you like best about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** Abacus is a very straight forward app that allows you to submit expenses effortlessly. I like how intuitive the app is and that it doesn't need to be explained to most users. **What do you dislike about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** There isn't really much to dislike about abacus. Sometimes certain Vendors may not be searchable but you can always add them. **Recommendations to others considering Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus):** I would recommend abacus based on it's ease of use, and how intuitive it is. You don't really have to give a class on how to use it as it is all very straight forward. **What problems is Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus) solving and how is that benefiting you?** As soon as something purchased you can submit it for reimbursement. No one is forgetting receipts. ### 45. Our non-profit chose Abacus over Expensify and have been very happy with it **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Non-Profit Organization Management | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** December 01, 2016 **What do you like best about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** It's very cleanly designed and easy to use. The phone app is great. We are an all-female organization, and chose this product over Expensify or other services because we researched the companies and found Abacus to be a company that is aligned with our values and doesn't have executives who have exhibited anti-woman behavior or other history that we do not want to support. They are basically free for our non-profit as well, based on our low volume of use. **What do you dislike about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** I've heard concerns about it from others but I don't remember them (maybe it was about questions on integration with Quickbooks?). I personally have no dislikes about Abacus. **Recommendations to others considering Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus):** The switchover was very easy for us, basically a matter of communication and getting everyone on board. When we first started, we invited everyone in our organization whether they needed to submit expenses or not, just to push the switchover. Now we invite people on an as needed basis. **What problems is Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus) solving and how is that benefiting you?** We used to have to attend email and cut checks using bill pay in our bank account, and then save the receipts into a Dropbox folder using a naming convention. It was a manual process and the payment turnaround time was much longer. since we are volunteer run Now, members can submit their receipts with their phone, and we can just login and review and press a button. They get paid quickly, we save work. Our accountant can get the receipts directly from Abacus so we don't worry about them anymore. It makes looking through expenses much easier (than in a folder), and It's nice that it integrates with Xero as well. ### 46. So easy to use!! **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 22, 2017 **What do you like best about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** It was so easy to use for reimbursement for a job interview. Totally took the awkwardness out of reimbursements and made the process easy for both the company and myself. **What do you dislike about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** Nothing! It was easy to figure out and would recommend to everyone. **What problems is Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus) solving and how is that benefiting you?** N/A. I was given access to this for a job interview that required travel. ### 47. Love this app **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Photography | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** August 17, 2017 **What do you like best about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** It's fast , convenient and user friendly. **What do you dislike about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** Limited availability to add info while submitting expenses **What problems is Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus) solving and how is that benefiting you?** Fast turn around for expense reimbursement. ### 48.

Each time Abacus makes updates, it makes it easier to use. I never keep receipts anymore. **What do you dislike about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** The tagging of companies/services is still a little wonky. But nothing that would deter me from using the service. More that if I put in 'uber' before, then it doesn't recognize the new 'uber' company where the tags would be more intuitive. **Recommendations to others considering Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus):** Love it. Take pics of your receipts at the register/counter and as soon as you get the email, so you are never tracking things down. I love that I never keep receipts anymore. **What problems is Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus) solving and how is that benefiting you?** I travel for work less and less, so I don't use it as often, but mostly the ability to get reimbursed quickly is great. We also can store/categorize for accounting much easier. ### 49. Abacus Rocks! **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Joe P. | Director of Operations & Customer Onboarding, Computer Software, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** November 01, 2016 **What do you like best about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** Its super simple to manager our employee expenses and reimbursements. I'm able to approve expenses on the fly and ask questions about them where necessary. I especially like the ability to approve multiple expenses at a time. There are some employees I know I need to go through each of their expenses and verify their validity, where others I know have provided accurate information so I can approve theirs quickly. **What do you dislike about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** I wish it would remind me more frequently of outstanding employee expenses. **Recommendations to others considering Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus):** Make sure you setup your expense hierarchy correctly and keep it up to date. **What problems is Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus) solving and how is that benefiting you?** We have streamlined our entire expense process. We have a tons of employees traveling. Rather than issuing company cards we've been able to manage expenses easily due to abacus. ### 50.

Love their integration with Slack and Xero. App is great for receipt photos. **What do you dislike about Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus)?** APIs can still be buggy and result in a good deal of customer service emails. The good news there is that their service team is excellent. Also some basic functions, like assigning business categories to specific recurring expenses, are still in the pipeline. **What problems is Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus) solving and how is that benefiting you?** Make expense reporting easier for our growing start-up. We are a mix of a professional services and VC firm so lots of expensing is done back to accounts. It's important to have a solution that employees will use as expense reporting is a key part of our business ops. ## Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus) Discussions - [Can I use Abacus to create custom reports?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/can-i-use-abacus-to-create-custom-reports) - 2 comments, 1 upvote - [Does Abacus integrate with Slack?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/does-abacus-integrate-with-slack) - 1 comment, 1 upvote - [Can you read receipt images?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/can-you-read-receipt-images) - 1 comment, 1 upvote - [Can I sync my corporate card program?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/can-i-sync-my-corporate-card-program) - 1 comment, 1 upvote - [Do I have to approve one expense at a time?](https://www.g2.com/discussions/do-i-have-to-approve-one-expense-at-a-time) - 1 comment, 1 upvote - [View Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus) pricing details and edition comparison](https://www.g2.com/products/emburse-spend-formerly-abacus/reviews?open_modal_url=%2Fit%2Fproducts%2Femburse-spend-formerly-abacus%2Fwishlists%3Fhost_path%3D%252Fproducts%252Femburse-spend-formerly-abacus%252Freviews%26source%3Dsticky_header_pin&page=10§ion=pricing&secure%5Bexpires_at%5D=2026-07-01+18%3A01%3A25+-0500&secure%5Bsession_id%5D=a9ef160b-2187-4de8-b00e-9884dc2d34c7&secure%5Btoken%5D=de18be1409a5fa6ffa972137ea05b8f29a65342c6741518ae0864172a16d1f38&format=llm_user) ## Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus) Integrations - [QuickBooks Online](https://www.g2.com/products/quickbooks-online/reviews) ## Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus) Features **Expense Reports** - Ease of Creating Expense Reports - Bank / Credit Card Integration - Smart Categorization - Digital Receipt Management - Employee Reimbursement - Currency Conversions - Credit Card Integration **Setup** - Data - Approvals - Alignment **Card Management** - Card Types - Card Controls - Card Personalization - Configuration - Fulfillment - Replacement **Agentic AI - Accounting & Finance** - Autonomous Task Execution **Agentic AI - Expense Management** - Autonomous Task Execution - Cross-system Integration **Travel Management** - Ease of Booking - Itinerary Management - Trip Notifications - Advanced Integrations **Performance** - KPIs - Benchmarks - Forecasting - Savings **Controls** - Tokenization - Security - Card Networks - Integration - Testing - APIs **Payment Cards** - One-time Virtual - Recurring Virtual - Physical **Client Invoicing** - Electronic Payments - Project Accounting / Revenue Recognition **Reporting** - Real time - Multiple Views - Export - Budgets **Generative AI - Expense Management** - Image-to-Text - Text Generation - Text Summarization **Payments** - Vendor - Recurring - Employee Reimbursements - ACH **Mobile** - Receipt Capture - Mileage Tracking - Travel Itinerary and Flight Status Updates **Platform** - Embedded AI / Machine Learning - Complex Approval Workflow **Fraud & Risk Management** - Notifications - Unique Cards - Controls **Administration** - PCI Regulation Compliant **Agentic AI - Spend Management** - Proactive Assistance **Administration** - Business Tool Integration - Workflow - Automated Reminders - Policy Compliance Management - User, Role, and Access Management **Platform** - Reporting - APIs / Integration - Internationalization - Performance and Reliability - Mobile User Support - Offline ## Top Emburse Spend (formerly Abacus) Alternatives - [Rydoo](https://www.g2.com/products/rydoo/reviews) - 4.4/5.0 (719 reviews) - [Navan (Formerly TripActions)](https://www.g2.com/products/navan-formerly-tripactions/reviews) - 4.7/5.0 (8,949 reviews) - [SAP Concur](https://www.g2.com/products/sap-concur/reviews) - 4.0/5.0 (6,992 reviews)
