### "New user review"

September 1, 2021

5.0

Really happy with this app. It makes running my business that bit easier.

Pros

Lots of packages are available to users to records expenses. Zoho expenses is easy to use, keeps track of expense claims, creates reports to support invoicing. The best thing is it's just so easy to use.

Cons

I've not found a con yet. The app meets all my needs.

Freeagent can record expenses but getting a cohesive report to make a claim is very difficult if not impossible.

### "Worth a Try"

August 9, 2021

4.0

Pros

I love the ability to make categories with their own separate coding for different expense items. It makes keeping track of things that much easier and it's user friendly for staff and employees.

Cons

It's a bit unorganized on some things, and it doesn't translate as well from PC to Mobile.

### "Zoho's Best Expense App"

December 11, 2019

5.0

Zoho's Expense is overall excellent. I really like this product. I will recommend this product to my friends business. It is simple and easy to use.

Pros

This software removed huddle for businesses. The Auto Scan is the best solution for recording expenses receipts. It is very simple when you have a chance to see the demos.

Cons

The Manual Receipts Entries are the least that I did not like much about this software before the I can switch it to the Auto Scan. However, I really like this product. It will save headache for companies.

May 16, 2018

5.0

Low cost, simple expensing for our small company.

Pros

We like the autoscan function, workflow rules, correlation of expense reports (we don't pay through Zoho).

Cons

We had some struggles with accounts at the beginning when multiple people were testing things out, but that has been fully resolved.

December 14, 2022

4.0

I really dislike anything related to accounting, so finding an option that allows to keep my business expenses tracked with easy and facilitates how y handle, review and use that information has been quite helpful

Pros

It's really easy to keep track of expenses and manage the information, maintaining different types of expenses in a very convenient way.

Cons

It could get some improvements in the UI design and functionality

### "Decent software"

April 28, 2022

4.0

It was decent. I do a lot more for my business and that is why I switched to another software. I do believe this software will benefit someone who is just starting out.

Pros

I like the cost of the software as it is competitively priced against it’s competition.

Cons

It does not have as many features as I would like. It may be good for someone who is starting out.

### "Zoho Expense - Improves Vacation time!"

August 31, 2018

5.0

Simplifies processing travel reporting and handling of paper receipts. Easy to use on mobile phone or desktop...anywhere, everywhere!

Pros

It is so simple to use. Saves me many hours of processing consultant travel reports. I no longer touch 'paper'. And, the best part...a nice consistent pdf format with my logo, accounting, and scanned receipts for my clients. My consultants love it! And, asked me...where has Zoho been all my consulting life!

Cons

I like everything. There was nothing I did not like!

### "Switching to Zoho Finance"

November 14, 2019

5.0

Interface and user experience is good and easy to navigate. Instructions and tips are well placed and creating your first report and adding users is not a difficult task. Going to trial to see if we can move to a full roll out.

Pros

I like the many options for submitting an expense and the ease at which you can do this instantly or store expenses for categorization and submission later on. It is intuitive and covers pretty much all the aspects I need for financing a range of employees both office based and remote workers.

Cons

I would like to see the option of being able to create different report templates for different employees who have varying circumstances, e.g company or personal car. You can do this by creating separate company policies for individuals but that is not overly clear.

More control over Expense approval process

Pros

Uninterrupted service, except two times we had to not use for 3-4 days due to some technical error.

Cons

Reporting's needs to be more useful, and reminder need to be sent to those approver who have reports pending for approval.

I have been using Zoho expense for 5+ years. I test another product but always comeback. E Easily the simplest product against its peers

Pros

Cons

Not a great deal to dislike. If there is 1 criticism, not much colour, but the new version seems to have addressed this.

### "Zoho Expense has made life so much easier!"

May 3, 2024

5.0

Pros

Our expense reporting used to be awful and managed via manual spreadsheets. There are so many great things about this tool but even just the receipt scanner and ability to add those pictures to our expense reports alone makes the tool worth it

Cons

Honestly have not had any issues thus far. I saw a few of the other cons mentioned and would have to disagree with their issues.

### "Expense software that’ll make your life easier. "

August 4, 2023

4.0

Pros

Easy easy easy to upload receipts, auto scan them, and create an expense report.

Cons

Sometimes if the internet connection was wonky, it’s not always clear that the upload was successful. It also seems like the Expense and Books should more intuitively integrate in the future.

### "Best Expenses Management SW"

August 2, 2019

5.0

I manage a company in the US from Italy. Zoho Expense helps me with the trip's authorization and the travel expenses control/review. Before using Zoho there was a mess with advance payments and/or late reimburses; a lot of excel files and no organized information. Now I can authorize the trips, keep track of the different expenses and the employees are happy because it's easier to report the expenses and they're reimbursed with the first paycheck after they submit the request. All of that remotely with 7 hours timezone difference.

Pros

Easy set up as an administrator Easy user interface

Cons

recognition of the receipts uploaded by the app a little slow. some minor inaccuracy in receipts recognition

Reason for choosing Zoho Expense

Easy to set up and use.

### "Nice app to manage expenses"

April 7, 2023

5.0

I am generally happy with the app and appreciate it integrates to Books; just need to schedule time I guess to understand exactly how that's intended to work.

Pros

I like having the ability to enter expenses through the App and manage my receipts when entering

Cons

I didn't see how to fully integrate this to Zoho Books for reimbursements. I made one reimbursement but don't think it was properly records in Books.

### "Great Receipt Tracker"

May 24, 2019

4.0

Pros

We use this to keep track of all receipts for our employee debit card holders. They record all their expenses, and we have set up Zoho to compile a weekly report that automatically batches them for me to review and enter into our financial software. It has vastly improved the timeliness of getting receipts turned in, and decreased the rate of lost receipts to almost zero. Although we aren't using the software exactly as intended (as a way to report business expenses on a corporate credit card), it is working well for us and has the right price point.

Cons

I attempted the Quickbooks integration and it worked but for the way we are using the app it won't work to integrate because it forces me to choose a credit card account in our books to pay the expenses. It would be amazing if we could assign it to pay the expenses from our checking account, as this is what is actually happening due to debit cards. As is, I had to disable the integration and go back to manually entering.

### "Where have you been all of my (business) life?"

December 14, 2020

5.0

Pros

What I like most about Zoho Expense is that it has transformed my expense handling for my multi-office business by making it more efficient to process AND by treating our employees better. It's a win-win all around. I also love that we can handle our per diems through the system as that has always been a challenge in my company.

Cons

So far, I have not found any areas that I would say are "missing" for us.

June 15, 2020

Pros

I like that we have one place to collect and produce expense reports. I like that you can sync credit card charges to Zoho. Overall it works for our purposes.

Cons

I'd like to be able to choose which card(s) under our company credit card account I want to sync. Also, I'd like to be able to place a receipt in the receipt inbox, merge it with the expense that was sync to my Zoho account then place it in the proper expense report.

Very useful especially because of its direct integration with Zoho Books Makes it easy to track all petty expenses

Pros

No training required, get operational and be effective in tracking spending by the team right from day 1. One interesting thing that it offers is Receipt OCR, found it quite cool and pretty good in interpretation.

Cons

Minimum 10 users is actually not necessary, could have been a little lesser in terms of affordability like Zoho Books

### "Inexpensive expense management with excellent feature set"

October 22, 2018

5.0

Great application. Easy to use and administer. Right mix of features including mobile apps. Great value for the price.

Pros

Although price is what drew us initially to consider Zoho Expense, its the features and functionality that has kept us as a customer. We originally used Concur and found it to be too cumbersome and far too much for our needs. Zoho Expense fits our needs, and budget, much better.

Cons

The inability to have users able to enter or create expense requests on other behalf. Although this feature is in the pipeline now.
