Andrew: Hi, my name is Andrew. I'm an SEO manager. I would give Concur a four out of five. For more reviews like this, click below. Prior to using Concur, we were basically using Excel spreadsheets and just whatever means that every individual group deemed the best way to record expenses, which obviously was very inconsistent and created a lot of problems with accounting. The reasons we chose to go with Concur were pricing. It was not the cheapest, but it also wasn't the most expensive option out there. In addition, the features were excellent and it's well-known as a market leader in the industry. Getting started with Concur was incredibly easy. It operates in the cloud, for the most part. And so, once we had the account open and we were registered, basically all of the employees in the company registered for their own accounts and we were off and running. For any organization looking at Concur, I'd recommend they look at their internal accounting and whether it would integrate with Concur. Also, look at some of the other options out there, because Concur definitely is a great platform, but there are many others as well that may fit certain organizations better than others.
