## Reviews

### "Great Reimbursement Software" — 5.0/5

> **Jesse** | *7 June 2021* | Telecommunications | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Our company has used Abacus for years and it's very easy to use\! Its very user friendly for submitting and approving expenses.
> 
> **Cons**: It would be nice to have a template and I can use when Im submitting a lot of the same types of expenses.

-----

### "Good program for value of money" — 5.0/5

> **Lela** | *29 September 2025* | Law Practice | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Pretty good value for money, easy to use features and can figure it out yourself on how to use the program.
> 
> **Cons**: I don't recall there being any issues with the program that we had. I just no longer use the program because new law firm has a different program they already use.
> 
> Pretty good experience overall with Abacus, it was easy to use, user friendly, and was able to figure out program without training.

### "A Good Tool to help organize expenses" — 4.0/5

> **JOHN** | *11 May 2020* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It makes it easy to track and approve the expenses charged to our company credit card. I love the upload receipt feature so everything is easily accessible in one place. The email reminders keep me on track with response to charges; to approve or reject expenses.
> 
> **Cons**: I have not found any bad features yet. You are allowed to approve expense charges without a receipt which I do not like but we do not allow that feature.
> 
> Abacus is helping us keep organized with our expenses. We have several vendors charging expenses to our corporate account and Abacus helps us verify only approved expenses are getting charged.

### "Wish I found this program years ago\!" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *22 February 2021* | Real Estate | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: App is easy and intuitive, reimbursements are quick, integration with QBO is seamless. As part of the approval process, we can conduct and catalogue conversations about specific expenses, and those conversations are tied to the expense; that way, if there is ever a question about the expense in the future, all the information and conversation about that expense is in one place.
> 
> **Cons**: I wish the expense notes field had spell check.
> 
> Before Abacus, we issued company credit card to all employees. It was tedious to get all employees to submit receipts on time, and employees would occasionally put a personal purchase on their company card, which was time consuming to correct. Now, expenses are submitted on time, receipts are required for submission, and our expense management process is easy and seamless.

### "A Review for Abacus." — 4.0/5

> **Ryan** | *30 August 2018* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like that I can personalize the meta models in order to assist in honing in on specific areas of interest. Customizing these models helps with eliminating mess but also provides for internal growth a company or employee duties develop. I got a lot out of the idea of Abacus' ability to integrate with external software designed by other parties. Easily printable Excel sheets were highly beneficial. Abacus intel is top-notch as far as a data tool for analytics.
> 
> **Cons**: For firms that incorporate Legacy toolsets ie: fragmented toolsets, Abacus might be better off if it were to achieve high standard connection as far as integration modeling tools. It might also help if Abacus entailed a higher level of diagram producing aspects. Online training would also be great.
> 
> Overall Abacus is a great, intuitive experience. The support team is quick and the software is regularly updated to remove potential bugs. Avolution has made themselves available to our employees and helps to accommodate us. Ease of use is key with this program. A very helpful tool in our firm of 150 people.
