SAP Concur vs UNIT4 ERP Comparison

Running journal report is very good and report that post entry on to SAP (ERP) is also simple

month end pending item list needs but of manual work to produce the accrual

Very easy and straightforward to use Accessible from anywhere thanks to cloud features Compatibility with ERP systems Good price

Not familiar with any other systems so I can't really identify any cons related to this software.

simple to use and also allow easy interface with a current account payable ERP software. Good recording of expense policies

no easy way to pre populate expenses from receipt pictures, Other software allow a receipt picture to populate the expense

This software has a very good reputation, I have noticed that some job searches require you to know how to work with it, I would like to experience it more, I know that except for some details, it is very good

As I have detailed previously, a small delay in updates, perhaps as an ERP, should offer sales forecasts in relation to inventory

SAP Concur is a robust expensing software. It has all the functionality you would expect but, from a UX perspective, feels like a legacy ERP platform. In this way, the platform feels dated.

As explained, the platform feels a bit dated, like a legacy ERP platform. Each experience on Concur is like a trip back in time.

The best thing was all expenses were automatically tracked and organized. So it was easy to create the monthly expense report.

There is a lot of functionality I didn't use. I didn't use it mainly because I didn't need it to do my job.

SAP Concur is an easy to use and feature loaded tool. Following are the best features of SAP Concur: - Easy travel management - Quick and easy expense management - Budgeting - Audit Trail - Multi-level authorization

Although SAP Concur is great software but pricing is high for small and medium enterprises. Also, it is little cumbersome to integrate SAP Concur with our ERP tools.

The ability to have admin rights to view all employee expense reports in the company is very beneficial from an accounting perspective. I'm easily able to search by employee name, report name, submit date, etc.

A helpful feature would be the ability to see what general ledger account each concur expense type is mapped to. Currently we have to reach out to our IT department in order to find out this information. This would also help department managers identify if expenses are getting booked to the correct accounts which would better help them track their actual spend versus the budget.

Concur makes it very simple to fill out expense reports, upload receipts even by sending them straight to an integrated email. I love the simplicity of filling out reports as a user!

Concur was slightly difficult to map at the account level within our ERP. It took a lot of manual work to get implemented and accurate. Post implementation, everything has been smooth, but was a slight headache when implementing it!

Easy to access and web basedFull ERM system, allow lots of entry point for data to be analysed laterExpenses easy to manage with mobile appProject management and accounting tools

Accounting side looks complex and scary, but is expectedMove input responsibility to all stakeholders, middle and senior management, which is good and bad. The people with info is putting information in, but extra time is taking up for high earning, but reduces need for junior admin

We needed an app to approve hundreds of consultant's expenses and match our accounting. SAP Concur solved this for us. We loved the remotely review and approve, solved 90% of our previous issues. One of the best user friendly UX we ever tried. The import into our accounting ERP was flawless.

The only issue we have with this app is the price, if they would offer an affordable plan for small businesses, that would be great.

I liked the idea of having Concur pay our accounts payable and having the integration capability of tieing it into our ERP. Our businesses experience with implementing this product was less than stellar but since we already used Concur Travel and Expense there was hope that it would be just as amazing.

We found that its ease of use was not what we had envisioned. After doing a cost analysis we found that we were spending more time to process accounts payable at a higher cost then what we were doing previously. The value was just not there for us.

It's been a great tool to combine and manage our employee expenses and travel/entertainment expenditures. It incorporates our credit card transactions and works well sharing information with our travel partners to give us an all-in-one place for the employee to manage their spending.

Feels like at least once a week the tool is down with some random outage. Took years to get it tied to our SSO, and even now that it is, it only works with a specific URL, the URL in any email notifications takes you to a non-SSO page and your log-in fails. Also, it is no-frills, and looks very boring.

The mobile app, e-receipts (no longer have to take a picture of a receipt for anything travel related), just sent directly from the vendor to my profile. 24/7 customer service, connects directly with our ERP, a consultant to walk you through setup and configure the solution to your processes. Negotiated travel rates that you can't find online. Concur also process vendor invoices.

The procurement piece of the invoice tool is a little light, but is definitely sufficient for creating purchase requests / purchase orders. It also has the ability to match PO's, Invoices, & Receipt data. Overall the invoice process is great.

The tool is multi-faceted meaning that once you have end users using, expanding it's reach/impact is very easy. We started with invoice, then added expense and than adopted purchase requisition most recently. The mobile app is very helpful in managing the process for invoice approvals and receipt capture particularly, as can be done on the go.

Some of the quirks hard baked into the system route from it's beginnings as Global Expense, and therefore can be forgiven. I do see some of these ironed out over time. The SAP purchase (a number of years back now) has seen account management strengthened, however if you are not an enterprise wide SAP ERP customer - you are likely to struggle to receive a high level of account management.

I use SAP Concur to track travel and business trip expenses. So, my partner and I can manage our budget accordingly. My favorite feature about SAP Concur is its ability to capture hotel or gas bills as an image and attach it to a specific project. I also like its ability to integrate with airlines and hotels booking, so I don't have to go to those reservation sites separately. My accountant finds it easy to work with SAP Concur reports when e-filing my year end taxes. So, overall a great financial analysis and expense reporting tool.

SAP Concur doesn't work that well with Google suite or Chrome browser. Because it is optimized to work best with Microsoft Internet Explorer browser and office products. Password reset and error tracking is not that efficient. Uploading images of receipts for expense reporting is complex to understand for a new user. Customizing the software to meet specific accounting practices for a specific business takes some extra effort. Experience in accounting and erp software use is a must to maximize potential of SAP Concur.

The best feature provided by SAP Concur is the possibility for each employee to autonomously book a travel, speeding up and reducing the effort of company travel manager. Each employee is able to easily identify flights routes and room bookings in the proper way

User interface should be updated to simplified

SAP's competition in the ERP and business management market is strong. However, as a user of SAP for many years, I can say that it is very comprehensive and offers a wide range of functionality to meet the needs of companies of all sizes.The SAP system is very adaptable and customisable, allowing companies to tailor it to their specific needs. In addition, the platform offers strong integration with other applications, such as Salesforce, Microsoft Dynamics, Oracle and many others. This makes it easy to manage all business operations, from accounting and logistics to inventory management and human resources management.

While the cost of SAP may be a disadvantage for some companies, it is important to consider the long-term benefits.

Considering mobile workforces who travel to customer sites, trainings, partner events, and tradeshows, the ability to not only budget, but manage expenses is essential. The easy, real-time expense update features such as taking a photo of a receipt and creating an expense, and mapping technologies to track mileage are a benefit to users in drastically reducing data entry, and increase accuracy, which...

As a trial member, we have not fully deployed an enterprise level solution, but the API- connectors and overall feedback suggests ease of integration. At some point, future versions of these solutions will probably be chat-bot enabled for even faster inputs.

Implementation was helpful and support was good, but the fixes from support were typically, "oh you will have to use this work around", or "no we can handle that".

Too many limitations and the work arounds make it not an "automated AP processing". Has several limitation when it comes to the following items: Terms discounts, can not compute. Limit in invoice number extraction = 11 so we have several invoices where the invoice number was short by at least 1 digit and that is a problem when it comes to paying those vendors outside of Concur., since the vendor...
