DATABASICS Expenseのレビュー

Great expense reporting tool

製品を使ってみた感想： I was part of the team that selected DataBasics as our expense reporting option. We reviewed a few programs and needed an option that included the ability to capture Sunshine Act Data in a simple and accurate manner. We also needed to be able to pull Sunshine data for reporting. DataBasics provided the tool that was easy for our team to use and captures the Sunshine Act data in a manner that is easy to report. Any and all issues are resolved quickly and accurately by the support team. They will work with ANY staff member, individually if needed, and have the patience of saints!

良いポイント:

Pros: Ease of use for both user and administrator. The support team is incredibly responsive, very pleasant to work with and resolve issues quickly.

改善してほしい点:

Cons: Some of the HELP tools attached to the program are out of date and not terribly helpful. The reporting tools are great if you already have a report developed, but you cannot create your own reports easily. Then again, the support team tends to create ad hoc reports quickly.

2019 DataBasics Review

製品を使ってみた感想： My accounts payable group had to manually process approx. 60 expense reports each week. This software not only saves them a considerable amount of processing time but it makes the entire approval routing and payment process more efficient.

良いポイント:

The software is very user friendly. The general ledger extract, automated notifications and the availability to customize reports is extremely helpful. The security behind the rules and validation process, is ideal in helping my staff approve and make payment process efficient. The amazing DB staff from the our implementation team to our current support staff is the absolute BEST part of the entire process.

改善してほしい点:

It would be great if the supervisors or managers that approve the expense reports, could do that simply by replying to the email notification

UI Seems Straight Out of the 1990's

製品を使ってみた感想： Worst expense reporting software I have used to date.

良いポイント:

The software is good at tracking any errors that may have happened during the expense reporting process

改善してほしい点:

The user interface, the ease of use, the multiple confusing fields, "Select a City" doesn't even list cities, only states?? Too many things to name.

DB Review

良いポイント:

Easy to use. Great control and visibility.

改善してほしい点:

N/A. No Cons. Easy to use. When there is an issue, it gets fixed immediately.

Great experience with Expense

製品を使ってみた感想： Our experience with Expense has been very positive. Users have benefited from the software because it is easy to use and less time consuming than our previous process. The process of expense reports has been greatly improved and has become much more efficient.

良いポイント:

I have been using Expense for almost 20 years. The implementation process went well all those years ago, and the product has continually evolved and been a very valuable tool for our company. Users really like the automated input of Visa charges. As the admin, I like being able to capture company specific information that was customized for us during implementation.

改善してほしい点:

I have had very little issues with the software over the years. There is nothing I think of to point out as something I don't like about the product.

Aerovironment Expense reporting review

製品を使ってみた感想： I've been the admin for our Databasics account for close to 13 years, and have had great experience using it

良いポイント:

I like that the software is integrated with our other systems, where files load in daily to keep the companies changes current, such as employee files, and departments

改善してほしい点:

I don't have an point of reference to compare this to

An easy to use expense tracking system that provides approval levels needed to manage your expenses

製品を使ってみた感想： Moving from a paper tracking system to an electronic system has saved us money, allowed for better expense approval processes and increased the reimbursement turn around for our users. Using the mobile app and website allows approvals to happen from anywhere as long as an internet connection is available.

良いポイント:

The software is easy to manage and setup. It is easy for the users to use. Mostly the Customer Support team is excellent in assisting when you have a problem. Individuals goes out of his way to get you a quick response to any problem or question you may have. It is great to have that kind of support behind you.

改善してほしい点:

There are only a couple of cons I find about the program. When you want to delete a user you have to go to many different areas and delete the person before you actually delete the user profile. It would be nice from the employee record to click delete and the system asks if you want to delete all correlating records. The system is more designed to just make the user inactive versus actually deleting the individual completely. The other area is AD Hoc reporting. I feel the Jaspersoft report creation is not as easy as the rest of the program. You really need separate in-depth training on how to get the full benefits from the AD Hoc reporting portion.

Databasics works for our team's expenses

製品を使ってみた感想： We have been happy with DB expenses for years.

良いポイント:

It's great that this sofware is web based. Our employees across the US are easily able to enter their expenses, apply imported credit card charges, upload/attach receipts and submit from home or remote offices. It nicely integrates and uploads into our accounting software, MS Business Central.

改善してほしい点:

We have many projects and many tasks for each project. The expense entry can be a little confusing for new users with so many choices, it would be nice if we could narrow down choices/options per employee.

Easy to use and very efficient.

良いポイント:

This software is the most friendly user from all we've test from, that there is sometimes no need to train new employees/users. It can also be setup according to what your company needs. From setting up max limit for expenses to setting up max approval amount for supervisor.

改善してほしい点:

Can't think of any. For automation to be as efficient you will need both human and electronic intervention. This software gives you those options.

Databasics Review

製品を使ってみた感想： They have worked hard to meet our requirements.

良いポイント:

We have a lot of complexity in our system due to many entities (locations), departments (etc). They have worked hard to accommodate our complexity. The receipt process is quite easy.

改善してほしい点:

I do not like the fact that I have to go into Sage Intacct to pull the data into Sage Intacct rather than Databasics pushing approved transactions into Sage Intacct.

Great system - requires a savvy administrator

製品を使ってみた感想： Really like the system. Just can be a little cumbersome at times.

良いポイント:

The sheer flexibility and customization of the system is beautiful. You can tailor it to most any preferences or nuances your company has. This allowed me to set up a system that met a plethora of user needs on day one.

改善してほしい点:

The downside of the flexibility is that the system requires a savvy setup and admin team. A lot of the maintenance can be tricky. Once you understand it, it is wonderful and powerful, but is overwhelming to some people.

Overall good product

製品を使ってみた感想： DataBasics works well for us, our employees do both out of pocket and company PCard expenses. We recently upgraded our ERP system and DataBasics' support team was excellent at helping us work out the bugs.

良いポイント:

The versatility for us was key, we have very specific requirements and DataBasics was able to accommodate most of them. The support team is great to work with, very responsive and helpful. DataBasics is very open to and supportive of new requests for features and has implemented several of them for us.

改善してほしい点:

Creating new reports can be cumbersome, they're not very intuitive. However the support team is great and has helped me navigate and created what I couldn't. We have a final review process where the number of expense to review can get pretty high, when the numbers are high the system is slow to load them.

DataBasics for Travel & Entertainment Expense Management

製品を使ってみた感想： Flexible software (customizable). Great customer service.

良いポイント:

This software suits our needs. We have some reimbursement programs for our Sales employees that are non-standard in the industry and DataBasics works with us to customize the software to our needs.

改善してほしい点:

In Admin, sometimes an Expense Policy/Rule gets deactivated unintentionally because we touched another Admin area related to the Policy/Rule. Would be great to get a notification of what Policy/Rule gets deactivated when we make a change elsewhere, so we can take appropriate steps to ensure the Policy/Rule is reactivated if necessary. I also find Reporting to be a bit hard to use and not too user friendly. However, DataBasics is always quick to respond with any assistance we need.

Great software, easy to administer and support staff are amazing, always willing to help.

製品を使ってみた感想： Staff are responsible for inputting their own reports and the automation of the approval process.

良いポイント:

The product is easy to use and administer and the functionality has come a long way since we started using DATABASICS. They are constantly improving their software and their procedure documentation. They are always willing to help us deal with situations or new configuration requests, coming up with solutions or adding them as a future enhancements. I love working with their employees, they are always willing to listing and meet with me to discuss items. DATABASICS started to provide webinars so that you can learn new things about the software as well as using them as a refresher.

改善してほしい点:

My least favorite thing about the software is the reporting, within DATABASICS admin and Jasper. Jasper reporting is something that I don't use all the time so I have to familiarize myself with it when I do go in and use it. However they have had some webinars on Jasper reporting which has been helpful as well as documenting what's included in the domains. Within the admin console there are some admin audit data that is hard to understand but they are working on improving these.

AAPA

製品を使ってみた感想： I'm very satisfied with Databasics as Admin and had not heard any complains from AAPA employees.

良いポイント:

AAPA has been using Databasics for processing business related expenses. This Software has four ways to create expense reports. People can create reports on their computer as well as mobile phones. Databasics is good to use for internal control. The system sends e-mail notifications to employees and supervisors to apply credit card charges and approve expense reports. Using Google Maps, it is easy to do a personal car mileage. The system will automatically calculate it for you. The customer service is fast and efficient. In addition, they are ready to immediately solve any problems.

改善してほしい点:

We do not have any complains about Databasics.

Complete information

製品を使ってみた感想： Databasics has been a project that was implemented slowly and cautiously as most of our contractors are not up to date with technology. Unfortunately it cause a huge problem when trying to get the correct information from them. Databasics has solved most of this issue. The support I have recieved (even witn stupid errors) is extremely fast. The phone app is the greatest! Our employees using the phone app are up to date with their information and as a company we can now see where our strengths and weaknesses are in regards to the cost of goods sold as well as expenses.

良いポイント:

Prior to this software our company expense informaiton was all over the place and difficult at best to pull together when invoicing a customer for a completed project. now that all of our employees submit their time and expenses through Data basics I can acces all the expenses for a job within a few minutes by running simple report. The Databasics team was very helpful in

改善してほしい点:

1. Cant hit the back button 2. I would like to be able to match a cc charge to an existing entry.

DataBasics Expense Reporting Module

製品を使ってみた感想： Benefits include a mobile platform for approvals and expense reporting. Electronic storage of documents to reduce office supply and storage costs. Automatic workflow with audit trail helped increase accountability and resulted in quicker turnaround for approvals.

良いポイント:

The customer support is phenomenal. The Expense Modules are great for functionality available.

改善してほしい点:

Too many clicks to get to the final functions which led to some user confusion in processes. [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] reporting was limited. Could not limit accesses that dictate compliance in order to provide more visibility company-wide.

10 Excellent years of service.

製品を使ってみた感想： From the implementation team to the technical support team, they have always, gone above and beyond to satisfy our needs and provide excellent service and support.

良いポイント:

DATABASICS has been our T&E Expense reporting service for over10 years, they have been very attentive to our needs and requirements, have made many customizations to fit our culture and needs. They also, have a great implementation and support team.

改善してほしい点:

Soo many upgrades! I know they are required, but with a company like ours who has so many customized fields, every time there is an upgrade we need to test and retest our transactions to ensure everything is still functioning properly. However, they are included in the package price.

Response

製品を使ってみた感想： None.

良いポイント:

Easy of use, user friendly and DB working with our company on improvements.

改善してほしい点:

Other options for mapping out mileage, if you are not taking a direct route.

I work with this product everyday and incorporate new employees into its use.

製品を使ってみた感想： We are now able to keep up with reports and receipts per manager in one secure location.

良いポイント:

The software is user friendly. We are able to train managers within an hour on how to use DB. Being able to adjust a report before reimbursing is a breeze and the validation makes it much easier to keep up with per diem for our managers.

改善してほしい点:

The reporting. I would like easier was to extract information from the system as well as receipts. If there were ways to mark them so I could pull all of them up when I generate a report to provide support for the charge.

System that was provided is Travel Expense system. We were looking for Purchase Card Program.

製品を使ってみた感想： we were able to implement this software as Purchase Card reconciliation system for CACI. This system will allow users to reconcile transaction and attach back up documents, those will be stored in the system up to 7 years. The need to be able to store documents online for 7 years is what lead to the implementation of this system.

良いポイント:

It's an advance system and accommodated what were looking for even though it was not Purchase Card system.Customer rep helped us made this system function as we expected it to work. From the start, he took the time to sit down with the team to understand our project needs. We understand this is common for implementations but what stood out what his willingness to understand the intricacies of our program and mutually work to develop solutions that work for us (and not just implement solutions that other companies have used).

改善してほしい点:

System can be improved with minor tweaks those will have huge impact for users. Most of our users are used to simple and non-complex system. this system has many features those confuse users. specially the non-tech users.

Databasics is the most user friendly T&E application we have used in the past 15 years!

良いポイント:

User friendly! The admin functionality is very easy to navigate. The application flags policy exceptions for offshore audit team as well as approvers in the 4 level approval flow. Split screen capabilities allows audit team and approvers to view receipt attachments at the line item level. The application handles ALL interfaces/feeds from Amex, HR, PRS system and SAP. The Jasper reporting tool used for budgeting, T&E Spend and exception reporting. Helpdesk is actually VERY HELPFUL!!

改善してほしい点:

Nothing really bad to say about the application it self, the help portal at times is a bit cumbersome.

From the time we chose DATABASICS , I have always had excellent customer support from the team.

良いポイント:

The ease in the creation, approval(s) of the TA (Travel Authorization) including the travel advance option. Along with ease in the creation, approval, and payment of Expense Reports. It is extremely helpful that American Express provides a daily data feed with the employee's AMEX charges along with the currency exchanges for the International expenses.

改善してほしい点:

I miss being able to have go between two functions in the application. For example, the ease in going from the Expense Screen and the Admin screen. Perhaps this has changed since my last upgrade.
