Accounting-friendly expense management software that your employees will love. Perfect for companies with 100-5000 employees.
More often than not, you’ll find this snippet justifying their response (or lack of) to customer queries. Highly frustrated customers even take it to Twitter and yet, fail to receive any response from Expensify.
Backing up your own data shouldn’t be this hard. For instance, if you want to export your receipt images from your Expensify account, you first need to download the entire PDF report, crop your receipt and then save it a separate image?
In 2017, Expensify was at the center of a data leak which revealed personal information of their customers to a crowdsourced labor marketplace, Mechanical Turk.
Expensify is infamous for shutting down if you track a lot of receipts. This issue has been around for a while and there’s no fix to be found!
I hate @expensify absolutely horrible. No phone support. You send messages and then sit around and wait for hours to get a response. Takes 5 days to receive funds that in normal banking would be received in 3 days. I’m still waiting on funds after a week...no answers.

I hate it when @expensify is trying to be cute. This is accounting. I just need it to be as easy as possible, don't try to trick me into thinking this is fun. It's boring.

I hate Expensify. That’s all.

@expensify hey! Is there a way of buying more smartscans but NOT getting any other features? The "automated workflow" thing keeps doing stuff to my expenses I don't want it to and I hate it.

@expensify why did you take away the ability to bulk upload images for expenses, it was the only thing that made me not hate your software!

Ugh I hate @expensify. Did expenses and realized it failed to import half my Amex UK line items in March. Sigh.

@expensify how the hell does someone get help with your product. Your hold $1000’s of dollars of my money and no one will help me

I really hate that you cannot shut off the smart scan feature of the @expensify app. I personally do not want to use it, because I am faster at manual entry, and I find Mechanical Turk to be unethical.

Why did I just receive a 28-paragraph email, from something called #Expensify, in which the CEO actually used the expression, "don't hate the player, hate the game?" To use an equally dated expression, #FAIL.

Urgh, @expensify iOS app is essentially useless if you use google SSO. You can’t even use the site on your mobile because it redirects you to an app you can’t even use. Been an issue for several years too ..... pic.twitter.com/ONwME6ygSm

I think they’ve given up. There will never be a fix. It has been months now. I hate Expensify.

@expensify I have to say I hate the recent changes to the web app. Massively less efficient for me. My CFO agrees. Inclined to ditch it after years of use.

Moan... I hate the way @expensify iOS app randomly chooses to demand password entry and refuses to take new expenses until entered, no integration with SSO, no warning, no cooling off period. Bad UX design.

@expensify You are utterly doing my head in. I HATE this app and now Im stuck with it. Nobody makes any sense in the 'chat' and theres no #

We’re obsessed about keeping our customers happy. Your dedicated Account Manager is just an email or call away. (PS. In 2019, 94.6% of all support tickets were resolved within 1 hr 7 mins)
Expensify’s post-facto checks will lengthen your approval and reimbursement cycles. Embrace the modern way -- Fyle checks for policies even before the expense is submitted for approval.
Fyle is present where your expense receipts reside. This means employees can submit expenses directly from Outlook or Gmail inbox, Slack, WhatsApp, their phone gallery and more.
Fyle has open APIs that get you programmatic access to your own data to integrate with other software or to take backups.
Automate any approval workflow -- sequential, parallel, policy-driven, multi-stage, multi-org, project-based right from your inbox or mobile app.
Using Bulkfyle, upload up to 20 receipts at once and see them appear as separate expenses automatically.
