Emburse Enterprise is ideal for midsize to large global organizations needing highly configurable workflows. We'll scale with you, meeting your needs at every step in your journey.
Ideal for small businesses and accountants, Plooto is the fastest way to manage business payments - saving you hours on your accounts payable and receivable processes like credit card payments.
Overall this has been great, and easy for end users to be able to submit expense reports. As well as a better ability to monitor what is being expensed.
We continually have issues and have to fight to get our reimbursements despite going through all the correct steps and getting pre-approvals. The system is confusing and constantly makes you resubmit.
We have only been live for three months. But we are already experiencing ease in entering expenses, speed in the approval process, great tracking ability and reporting.
For example, having to attach 1 receipt at a time for each expense you make and annotating it drives me nuts.
Users and admins especially enjoy the mobile features and the ability to see exactly where an expense or invoice is in the approval process.
And I don't believe the admin tool has been migrated to mercury either so you still need to go into the old site to manage anything manually or investigate problems.
Great integration with our ERP system (PeopleSoft). Nice features like Snapp App, Uber integration.
It does not allow for personal charges to be taken out of the end-user bank account.
My experience has been very good. Been very happy with product in the past few years that I have been using it for my clients.
The warnings should be more visible. It takes longer than Telpay to deposit into account.
Their customer service was good too. Overall Plooto is an awesome addition to my business and one that I wish I had implemented YEARS ago.
The problem that arises is that we as a small organization end up paying for two software because some of our vendors pay by credit card so we are spending more money on Plooto.
The accounts payable functionality and clear audit trail have been fantastic. It is a useful software for our firm and our clients have definitely benefited from the implementation.
So far negative but hopeful I can figure it out. I'm frustrated to have had to pay $25 per month and still haven't figured out if this is going to work for my business or not.
The best features of Plooto include the ability to send contactless payments to vendors at anytime in (almost) any amount. We love the approval control, the user friendly interface, and the price.
The pricing change is too bad given our corporate structure.
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.
Colette: Hi, my name's Colette. I am owner and director of Calgary Piano Expressions. That is a mobile piano studio here in the city of Calgary, and my rating for Plooto is five out of five. We considered using bank-based pre-authorized debit systems for our customers. We also considered using Wave, which would have allowed us some bank transfers, some credit card use, but ultimately we chose to go with Plooto. We chose Plooto because it gave us the most flexibility for editing payments, even those part of a pre-authorized debit agreement. And since the families who are part of our studio are so busy, lots of them have multiple children, we needed a program that would make it hands-off for the customer. And so once the family sets up their information, everything else we take care of and the customer doesn't have to do anything else. We really enjoy using Plooto. It was quite easy to get the program set up. When we started, there was a little bit of a delay getting payments to our employees just because the first time you ever send money to someone, it takes a few more days, but then after that, even one month later, now the payments were taking only one day to get to the employee. So that's pretty fast. And we really liked that feature about Plooto. It was quite easy to set up in the beginning, so we would send a link to each customer to input their financial information, and then after the setup process was done, sometimes it takes a reminder or two to the family to put their information in, but once it's done, it's done, and then it's easy to use from that point forward. My recommendation is do it. My children's preschool, my children's activities, sometimes they're still asking for monthly E-transfers from customers, and I just see this as being so admin heavy. They must have to chase people to get payments every month, but with Plooto it's very automatic. The only time I need to put some work in is in the case of an NSF, or if someone has changed their credit card information and they need to update it. That's the only time when I really need to go in and do some legwork. With how our business is run, I do have to set up the customer's payments manually every spring for the coming school year, but outside of that, it's very easy to use.
