Expensify

Pros

Minimal learning curve if your team us any experience with expensing items in a software format. You can fix mistakes really easily and there aren’t a ton of buttons to wade through.

Cons

Sometimes new employees need to get reloaded to allow them to bill items to customers. That might be the accounting firm that we work with a fault though.

Pros

We have been using Expensify for a long time and syncing it with different systems, including Workday and Netsuite. Expensify allows us to customize our policies to include custom fields from Netsuite which is a good feature. The approval workflow is straightforward and user-friendly, and the best part is that it doesn't require any training. Approvers can easily review expense reports with receipts attached to expenses. We reviewed other competitors' software and found them either expensive or not up to par. However, Expensify is a true value for money.

Cons

So far no complaints and it serves the purpose.

I am writing to bring to your attention a profoundly concerning issue that I have encountered with your company's customer service procedures. It is imperative that everyone be made aware of how customers are treated within your organization.

To provide context, I recently registered an account with your company and underwent a series of verification processes. During these verifications, I was requested to obtain a letter of verification from my bank. Upon communicating with my bank, I was informed that such a letter could not be provided. Instead, we agreed to proceed with a phone verification process.

Subsequently, your support team instructed me to schedule a phone verification appointment. However, my appointment was canceled two hours prior to the scheduled time without explanation. I was then asked to undergo the verification process again, including re-uploading my identification documents. Despite completing these steps, I was still asked to provide verification using another form of identification, despite having already used my California Real ID.

Feeling increasingly disappointed and frustrated after three days of continuous demands for documents and unreasonable requests, I expressed my frustration by using the F-word twice. Regrettably, a representative from your company responded by threatening to discontinue service and implied transferring my case to another support member. However, when I requested assistance from another support member, I was told, "I'm not going to assign you to anyone else in our team until you're able to avoid being aggressive with our team."

I wish to emphasize that my use of inappropriate language was limited to two instances of the F-word. Furthermore, I was assured that your company does not have managers, and I was refused the opportunity to be assigned to another support team member. Subsequently, the support chat was abruptly terminated, and I have been unable to locate a valid telephone number for further communication.

It is deeply concerning that, despite providing personal and banking information, as well as linking my bank account, I was subjected to punitive measures for the use of mild profanity. This treatment is entirely disproportionate and unacceptable.

I am formally requesting a thorough investigation into this matter and appropriate action to rectify the situation. Additionally, I expect assurance that my account and personal information are handled with the utmost respect and security.

I anticipate your prompt attention to this issue and a satisfactory resolution. Please contact me at your earliest convenience to discuss further.
