Why you might consider a Concur alternative
- Complicated user interface: One of the biggest frustrations for SAP Concur users is the complexity and unintuitive nature of the user interface, which unnecessarily slows down users, even with simple tasks.
- Reporting: Reports are a particularly slow process that requires a lot of manual data entry.
- Limited integration: Compared to many alternative expense management systems, SAP Concur’s integration with modern tools and cloud-based systems is limited. While standard integrations are offered for popular accounting software, it may not provide the level of connectivity to fully integrate with your existing tech stack.
- Customization: Unless your processes already align with SAP Concur’s rigid platform structures, it can be a challenge to make their templates, reporting categories and workflows match up with your specific needs and requirements.
- Pricing: The pricing of Concur is unclear and has a lot of hidden charges, including for things as important as service calls. As a result, many small and medium-sized businesses can find that the service quickly becomes too expensive, especially when it needs to be scaled across teams.
