Pros & Cons

SAP Concur logo
SAP Concur

Pros

  • Extensive integration catalog: the vendor cites more than 300 pre-built connectors, covering SAP, NetSuite, Workday, Oracle, Dynamics 365 and QuickBooks.
  • Combines travel booking, expense reporting and invoice-based AP in one suite, so travel spend links directly to expense reports.
  • Strong policy enforcement, flagging out-of-policy spend before submission, with configurable multi-level approvals.
  • Multi-currency and VAT or multi-country tax handling suit global, multi-entity organizations.
  • Optional audit and fraud detection add-ons (Intelligent Audit, Detect, Verify) for organizations with strict compliance requirements.

Cons

  • No public pricing on the vendor site, and add-ons and implementation are quoted separately.
  • Reviewers often describe the interface as slow and outdated.
  • Long implementation and heavy administration make it a poor fit for small teams.
  • Concur issues no corporate cards of its own and relies on feeds from bank cards.
  • Phone support beyond standard help reportedly requires a paid User Support Desk.

Pros

  • The AI captures and codes invoices without template setup, and the vendor claims an 85% no-touch rate by month six.
  • Prebuilt connectors cover many mid-market and enterprise ERPs, including NetSuite, Sage Intacct, Dynamics, Workday and SAP S/4HANA.
  • Strong security documentation, including SOC 1 Type II and SOC 2 Type II reports, AES-256 encryption and annual penetration tests.
  • Covers AP from end to end: invoice intake, approvals, payments, a vendor portal, expense cards and analytics.
  • Reviewers on SpotSaaS praise the time savings and helpful support (average 4.75 out of 5 from 24 ratings).

Cons

  • No public pricing and no free trial, so budgeting requires a full sales cycle.
  • Onboarding and integration setup can be hard without expert guidance.
  • The AI needs time to learn, so accuracy early on may fall short of the headline claims.
  • It is not a general ledger or full accounting system and needs an existing ERP.
  • ERP Research found capabilities such as e-invoicing compliance undocumented in public sources.
