My favorite thing about the Emburse Certify system is the convenient app -- you can take pictures of your receipts as you go, and then when you need to submit your expense report, they are all there waiting! The system can also autofill in details from your receipts like date, location, and amount. It really makes expense reports quick & easy. I've uses other systems at big pharma & ag companies -- Certify is BY FAR the best!
Honestly - I can barely think of a dislike for Certify. I guess Certify could be better if it implemented a way for the system to auto-select the right receipt for you? Since it can read the amount, it should be able to say "Is this your receipt?" I usually only have a few receipts per month but I imagine that would really help our staff who rely more on their corporate card.
Certify makes the dreaded monthly expense report simple and quick! I really like how we can take pictures of receipts right away and the system saves them til they are needed -- no more digging around in your purse for old receipts or trying to explain yourself when you have lost the receipt!
I appreciate how the credit card expense will post for easy access to edit and upload receipt. I also find the search engine very valuable for hotels and flights. There are always plenty of options and the best option is usually highlighted first for easy access.
It's nice to handle all of my work expenses and submit directly to my manager.
There is not much I dislike, however, you cannot delete expenses if there is a mistake. If you put the same one in twice, but it doesn't recognize from the credit card. I know now that I need to wait for the credit card expense to post before adding the expense to a report.
The problem solving may not directly benefit me, but I know they benefit our company. Our company can see where the expenses are going and exactly how much an individual has spend.
The best part about Emburse Certify Expense is the ease of use for our employees. If a process is too hard, it just won't get done. Certify is easy enough to use that everyone in the organization can use and interact with the program.
I don't like having to list each expense code for every department. It would be much easier to chose a department and then the GL account codes for that department are the only ones available.
T&E reporting is difficult without common parameters and procedures. Certify helps put those procedures in place to keep the process moving forward smoothly.
It is a very helpful desktop and mobile app overall. I love that it is offers seamless connection and multiple ways to utilize its capabilities and all it offers. The more you explore (if your like me) you will be surprised on the user friendly expirence and abilities it offers to help you stay organized for expenses, invoices, travel... so may options!
The only downside I have experienced is from time to time the credit card information "unsync's" so you have to re-sync it, but it doesn't happen too often and it is pretty easy to fix.
The application has helped me save loads of time by the many ways it allows you to use and interface with it. From your desktop to your phone, to your email... the click of a button to capture expenses and process them accordinly saves time, energy and help to keep me organized.
The idea that I can combine everything on one form. I am able to reconcile my expenses, down load receipts needed, and keep everything on one form. The other thing is that I have what I call my life saver which is that little button when I push submit, "Clean Up". It saves the time of having to call back expenses or redoing the form..
If you go beyond the spectrum of basic expenses it sometimes hard to get the expenses to close out such as credits or refunds. That of course could be user error. I'm sure there are many features I haven't mastered yet.
Well the main problem I have is that my credit card is used by various managers and getting receipts from them is the hardest thing to do; eventhough I ask them to just scan, take a photo or email them to me. However, once I have them in my hand, it keeps everything in one place, I download them and put them in Certify and at the end, I am able to do a few clicks to start my expense report and everything reconciles. Love it.
Emburse Certify Expense is very user friendly and simple. Every time I've used it for filing work expenses and getting things accounted for has been seamless. I've used it dozens of times for work purchases myself and my colleagues. Any time I have a question or need help, I know there's a customer service team available to help me at any moment. I can't imagine using any other accounting tool than Certify!
The only downsides are not explaining the Lost receipt function clearly, but that might be an internal issue with our organization and not the platform itself.
Emburse Certify Expense is helping us to better manage our expenses and reconciliation. It makes the process much more seamless and I appreciate it. Saves us time (and dollars) as an organization!
It's easy to use. Any time I am looking for something on the app it is not hard to find or figure out the next steps. It is a flexible system that I can fill out & submit my expenses to my supervisor and leave any notes that would be important and add anyone else that I might need to include. Then I get updates along the process so I know it was received and when to expect reimbursement.
I haven't found a large downside. It can be a little confusing to first see the many options within a category. For mileage for example there are about 6 different choices. But this also allows you to be specific and even that is helpful overall.
It is solving the problem of submitting expense reports. I can start a report and finish it later and it makes it no hassel for me to get them in for reimbursement. So I don't miss out.
The ability to update, my expense report in real time, and on a rolling basis, has saved me so much effort and time. The AI also notifies me if I've submitted the same expense report before or if it's a duplicate.
I really don't have any complaints except that sometimes he grabs the wrong number out of an email receipt with multiple numbers. But that is easily fixed by using the cleanup wizard
I don't have any issues using the program, and I love the ability to go back and review archived expense reports. This helps me budget for future years.
The easy way I can Upload receipts from my phone. The efficiency of being able to reconcile all my expenses with the click of a few buttons.
I dont have anything that I dislike as of yet. This has helped with petty cash recoinciliation 100%
Prior to using Certify I had to save all of my receipts and try to remember all my expenses. However certify has them available for me to see as soon as it updates. I have the ability to upload my receipts immeadiatley so as soon as the expense shows up in my wallet the receipt is automatically matched to the expense and I can instantly create an expense report to be submitted for reinbursment. I can literally reconcile my expenses as they are made without having to wait.
