Quick Comparison Matrix
Detailed Vendor Analysis
Expensify: The Legacy Leader
Founded in 2008, Expensify pioneered mobile expense reporting but hasn't evolved with modern needs. Their aggressive push toward their own credit card program alienates businesses happy with existing banking relationships. While SmartScan works adequately, users report frequent manual corrections needed.
Best for: Companies willing to adopt Expensify Card, traditional expense report workflows
Avoid if: You want to keep existing cards, need Google Workspace integration, value data privacy
Ramp: The VC Darling
Ramp offers "free" software but requires using their credit cards - a deal-breaker for established businesses with existing banking relationships. Their US-only focus excludes international companies. While their spend management features are robust, you're locked into their financial ecosystem.
Best for: US startups willing to switch all corporate cards to Ramp
Avoid if: International operations, existing card relationships, need card flexibility
SAP Concur: The Enterprise Heavyweight
Concur dominates Fortune 500 expense management but comes with Fortune 500 complexity and costs. Implementation typically takes 3-6 months with consultants. The mobile experience frustrates employees, leading to poor compliance. Pricing is opaque and often exceeds $50/user/month all-in.
Best for: Enterprises with dedicated IT teams and 6-figure budgets
Avoid if: Under 500 employees, need quick deployment, want simplicity
