“Maybe it would be nice to add an entry for what is this payment for, e.g. I need to buy a cable, but If HR doesn't know they will ask my why I have a receipt from a warehouse (but all written in chinese so they can't read it).“

### "Eine hochprofessionelle Abrechnungsplattform für Reisende "

September 9, 2026

5.0

Sehr gut. Ich kann mir mittlerweile wirklich nicht mehr vorstellen, meine Reisekostenabrechnungen ohne Circula zu erledigen.

Pros

Einfache, transparente Bedienung. Schnelle unkomplizierte Abarbeitung. Gute Kommunikation. Sehr empfehlenswert.

Cons

Ich möchte hier einfach " Keine Nachteile " schreiben. Allerdings wurde ich hingewiesen, dass es hier nicht weniger als 100 Zeichnungen in der Antwort sein müssen. Warum kann es hier nicht einfach kurz beschrieben werden?

### "Sehr zufrieden"

May 9, 2026

5.0

Es ist sehr einfach seine Kosten abzurechnen bzw. einzureichen. Sämtliche Vorgänge sind gut erklärt, leicht zu verstehen und leicht zu bearbeiten. Ein Vorgang ist innerhalb weniger Minuten abgeschlossen.

Pros

Einfach, intuitiv und schnell. Es ist anhand von Bildern oder Dateien einfach seine Kosten einzureichen, da diese automatisch gescannt und Daten gelesen werden.

Cons

Ich habe nichts negatives bisher festgestellt. Man kann auch Fehler gut korrigieren. Es gab bisher keine Schwierigkeiten, keine Verzögerungen und die App funktioniert immer einwandfrei.

### "Neues Reisekostentool"

December 22, 2025

5.0

Circula wurde in unserem Unternehmen seit einem Jahr eingeführt, da es eine bessere Schnittstelle zu unserem Warenwirtschaftssystem herstellt. Der Umstieg war sehr leicht und verständlich.

Pros

Es ist klar ersichtlich und einfach zu bedienen. Man kan leicht die Belege hochladen und sie werden sehr gut erkannt

Cons

Es gibt hier noch nichts negatives zu melden. Das einzige wäre, dass ein weiteres Kommentarfeld manchmal nützlich wäre.

### "Verwirrung"

December 2, 2025

2.0

Pros

leichte Bedienbarkeit,

Cons

verwirrende Mitteilungen, die keinen Bezug zu den tatsächlichen Auszahlungen haben. Warum bekommt man angezeigt, dass Beträge zur Erstattung anstehen, die bereit vor 4 Wochen ausgezahlt wurden. Die Mitteilung sollte erst erfolgen, wenn die aktuellen Erstattungen freigegeben sind. So sorgen die E-Mails nur für Unmut.

November 14, 2025

5.0

Ich benutze Circula regelmäßig in meinem Alltag, und es funktioniert einwandfrei. Die Anwendung ist übersichtlich, benutzerfreundlich und erleichtert mir die Abrechnung enorm. Wirklich top!

Pros

I really appreciate how Circula simplifies expense management. It’s intuitive, efficient, and saves a lot of time.

Cons

Es funktioniert sehr gut. Ehrlich gesagt gibt es nichts, was ich an Circula nicht mag. Es macht die Verwaltung von Ausgaben einfach und reibungslos.

### "Easy and straightforward"

November 13, 2025

5.0

Travel expense reporting used to be a tedious, time consuming task that cost me several hours each month. With Circula it is easy and straightforward and I can upload receipts on the go.

Pros

That I can upload all my receipts and expenses immediately when they happen and Cirucla even recognizes most of the information automatically.

Cons

Only at the beginning it was bit overwhelming but after watching the video tutorials, everything was easy.

### "Great experience as an end-user"

January 31, 2023

5.0

Overall, my experience was positive. The software made it easy for us to track expenses and submit claims. The user-friendly interface and streamlined process saved us a lot of time and hassle. The only downside was the lack of integration with our accounting system, but it was manageable. Overall, we are very satisfied with the software and would recommend it to other organizations looking to streamline their reimbursement process.

Pros

I liked the software's user-friendly interface. It was easy to navigate and understand, which made the reimbursement process much more efficient.

Cons

I didn't like that the software didn't have an automatic integration with our accounting system. We had to manually enter data which added an extra step to the reimbursement process.

### "Easy to use, user experience could be enhanced in some areas "

August 22, 2019

5.0

Overall I enjoy using Circula and it provides the best user experience of the tools I have used so far (SAP and WorkDay). I recommend it.

Pros

Circula is an easy to use software to file expenses. I like the mobile app and how it plays together with the webapp.

Cons

As an employee who has submitted expenses I want the ability to add a comments to my filed expenses so that I can track if the company has payed these expenses or not. I did chat with Circula support and this feature does not exist yet. I noticed that some of my co-workers had issues setting up their account. The cause was them trying to register without having received an invite from another user / admin. This path leads to a dead end.

### "Super friendly system "

June 20, 2025

5.0

10/10 - very easy to use, user friendly and your UX designer did a great job on designing a perfect user experience.

Pros

Completed in just a few clicks - super easy. Normally other systems will drop to endless amount of steps, but here every submission literally takes seconds.

Cons

Nothing really - it goes so fast and smoothly that I have no complaints. The AI is brilliant, no need to correct anything

### "Good but sometimes could safe me even more time "

November 13, 2024

4.0

Overall good app. I like the easy use, while at the same time having a bit of trouble that is time intensive.

Pros

Easy upload and if it works it is amazing

Cons

Sometimes I have to extract some items while my whole benefit is only a max sum. It would safe me a lot of time if this would be taken into account. Example I bought food for 40 euros and my benefit is only like 7 euros. I should not have to remove other items. It should just deduct the amount that I have on my benefit. Also I sometimes buy food for more than one meal and it would be nice to have several meals/benefits accounted for.

### "Makes receipt handling and management of travel expenses so easy"

January 18, 2023

5.0

Very positive. At the beginning I was a bit intimidated to handle everything in a digitalised form but I learned to love it so fast. It is very simple, easy to handle and provides a perfect overview of the status.

Pros

I love the easy features to combine many receipts like hotel, flight, food under one event or trip and being able to assign them to specific projects. Also the monitoring process of approval is very simple and nice through status updates and notifications

Cons

there is actually no negative aspect so far
