What is the best Time & Expense reporting and management software?

Which system? I'm currently working with Expensify (which works pretty well, integrated to credit cards, mobile, etc). However integration with whatever cloud GL you've got can be valuable if you've got significant data entry. The GL you've got could have 3rd party plug-ins that suck the data in without too much fuss, so I'd start there.

I have used Excel and Concur. I have found that you can use Excel and still be effective and efficient in processing and reporting. In my Concur experience, it’s a good product, but review it thoroughly to determine if it fits your needs.

I would highly recommend ExpenseCloud for expense reports and EmpCenter for time & attendance. We converted from the manual excel way of doing things and have never looked back. Check them out.

A little more detail would be helpful in generating the best response. Perhaps a bit more on how many resources are turning in T&E reports, what happens to the reports when they arrive, are they generating consulting revenue and profit margin of the business?

We have recently switched to Concur for the expense reporting and I while I love it I would agree with a comment above to ensure it is what you need.

However it sounds like your "t" is time and I would encourage you to check with your payroll vendor. ADP, Paylocity and Paychex all have a time and expense reporting processes that they could help you create one solution for both the time and expense.

We use Replicon and have been pleased with it. It allows for receipts to be scanned and attached to the expense line item among other things.

Has anyone used expense watch? My staff are currently submitting via excel sheets with hard copies of receipts attached. Concur looks like it's geared for larger organizations. I have no more than 20 employees that submit expense reports.

I have used Netsuite and Expensify and I prefer Expensify. It is simple and integrates with my accounting system. For me the important criteria was:

1. It had to be cloud-base
2. It had to eliminate paper
3. It had to have electronic approving and payment

All of these items Expensify has.
