Emburse Expense Enterprise (formerly Chrome River Expense) vs Pleo: Which is a better fit?

Davette C.: Hi, my name is Davette. I'm a law clerk and I give Embruse Chrome River Expense four out of five stars. For more reviews like this, click below. With the Chrome River, we have the ability to upload all of our receipts, invoices, and quickly process all of our expenses back to anybody who needs them in the firm, so that can go from lawyers, to paralegals, for anything like travel, and it helps for receipts not to get lost and for them to be quickly processed. I really love the fact that it's an easy program to use. I love the fact that you can drag and drop your receipts and invoices in, and it makes things quicker instead of having to go through and try to find those things on your desktop. That's what I love best; saves me time. I guess what I dislike most about Chrome River would be if I'm trying to put something through and having to go through and getting accesses to other people's Chrome River in order to put something through, it takes up a little bit more of my time to have to get the permissions first, but totally understand why those processes are in place.

Bobby: Hi, I'm Bobby. I'm the head of People for KEEL, which is a platform that is an all-in-one backend for users, and I would give Pleo five out of five. So we chose Pleo because several of us in the leadership team had used it at previous companies, and there we'd found it because it had been a kind of new, innovative way of doing expenses and company finances that we'd really liked and found really exciting. So we chose Pleo because it has lots of great features like really clear spending limits for employees, so you can set how much they can spend. You can also easily give people individual company cards or even virtual cards, that makes it really easy for them to spend company money in a really easy way. And also, it's extremely transparent. So it's very clear what people are spending money on, they can easily categorize that spending and upload receipts really simply and show what they've been spending money on. So it's easy to empower employees to use their Pleo card without us getting too involved. Pleo is super, super easy to get started with. We literally signed up. I think we were in and kind of up and running the same day or the next day. It was very, very quick and easy. And it's also very easy to add new users. So it's a really simple couple of button clicks to invite an employee and set up their limits, and then they're up and running, and it's very obvious how to use it. So you don't have to really train people. People can just log in for the first time, see how it works and get going. So my recommendation would be to get it. I think if you're thinking about it, it's a really, really great product. It's really simple and nothing that I've used in the past has come close to how good, easy to use, easy to set up. It is. So yeah, get it.
