Easy expense tracking with ExpenseMonkey: A Solopreneur's Review
I use ExpenseMonkey to track my business expenses.
I could do this with the business software I use for sales and accounting, but I don't want to have hundreds of entries with small amounts in the general ledger at the end of the year.
I like ExpenseMonkey's clear product focus and clean and simple interface. Both as a web solution and as a smartphone app. With the app, receipts can be photographed at the touch of a button and text recognition import is included.
I have no experience working in teams with ExpenseMonkey, but the product seems even better suited for this business case.
The software I use to track project time also allows me to track expenses, but it doesn't yet have the ability to import receipts. That's a big difference for me. It saves me from having to file dozens of cash and credit card receipts each year.
Of course I would like to have one system for all my use cases, but most often multiple systems provide a more in-depth approach.
You can sign in with your Google or Apple account, or with an email. An email link (not a password) is used to log in to ExpenseMonkey. Personally, I prefer a password, but an email link seems more secure (and somehow protects the software company in terms of the number of users).
What I would like to see in ExpenseMonkey in the future, in addition to a "Status" filter field and a "Reimbursed" tab, is the ability to download a ZIP file with the selected content (a CSV file of reimbursed entries plus any image files of receipts).
A CSV file download already exists. It would require an additional column in the CSV file with a link to the receipt image (within the ZIP folder structure) for each entry. Date filter (receipts from/to or year and optional month) and optional project filter. Reimbursed entries only.
The ZIP file would help comply with the requirement to keep tax records.
