Great product, bad support

Reviewed on 18/04/2024

Pros

Having worked with several other tools in the past, Yokoy is so far the only solution that makes expense management rather easy. Frequent travellers can easily upload things during a trip, organize expenses nicely and don't loose time with manual input. As a company, we really like the credit card feed, which helps to make sure that all receipts have been added. Generally, it an easy to use solution.

Cons

As a small business (22 active Yokoy users), we have the impression that we get literally ignored by customer support. We have a major issue since several months (credit card feed not working for UBS cards), and nobody from support ever replied to the issue. Every time we follow up, we get a note that someone will follow-up with us shortly, but nothing happens. This is rather frustrating!

Implementation was not up to our expectations. Yokoy doesn't allow a "self implementation" so you need to go through one of their partners. We have been assigned a near-shore partner (this was not mentioned during the sales process), but paid consulting prices like it was a local Swiss partner. The quality was acceptable but many things could have been done by ourselves and we left with the feeling that we paid a lot of money for limited value.

Response from Yokoy Group

Dear Customer,

We sincerely apologise for the frustration and inconvenience you've encountered regarding the credit card feed issue and the implementation process.

If you are open to sharing your details with us, we would be happy to arrange a direct conversation with our Head of Customer Care to ensure that the issue with the credit card feed gets addressed. Your feedback is invaluable to us as we continuously strive to improve our services and support.

Additionally, we deeply regret any confusion or dissatisfaction regarding the implementation process. We understand the importance of clarity and transparency, especially when it comes to partnering with our clients. Again, if you are happy to share your details with us, we will review our communication and processes in this instance.

Thank you for choosing Yokoy, and for giving us the opportunity to restoring your trust.

Best Regards,
Yokoy Team

I like the tool, UI is friendly, API is easy to use but has missing some command to help manage better the user status. We constantly need support from yokoy with some user accounts that have issues with expenses with wrong status, or account blocked and user cannot login (new user or not)

Pros

Yokoy is very easy to understand and to setup. There are some improvements that are important to do so the tool run smoothly.

Cons

Reporting needs improvements as noted before. and user management is very difficult to manage as there we had issues with accounts that are active with same email address per example.

Response from Yokoy Group

Hi Vanessa,

Thank you for your review and the feedback. We are currently working on expanding the capabilities of our API and will release the option to get transactions as well as account information via the API soon.

Thank you,

Expense claiming made simple

Reviewed on 8/04/2024

Pros

I like how easy it is to claim expenses back. Especially, the feature to upload a receipt and Yokoy pre-fills all the fields. This is a real time saver.

Cons

If I had to nit-pick, I would say the receipt import is not perfect when dealing with different currencies. I review the imported data before submitting anyway so is not a biggie.

Yokoy expense management for midsize scale up company

Reviewed on 9/03/2023

Pros

Yokoy is very positively rated by our employees (end users). The Yokoy staff is very friendly and supportive. They always try to find a tailored solution for your company's needs. Yokoy is still developing and changing. They implement new features to the tool every month.

Cons

The Yokoy Visa cards are limited to the European market. The delivery time for the physical cards is unacceptably long and they are delivering cards to a limited amount of countries. Also, the matching process for expense to card transactions is not intuitive for the end users, and they have serious problems the credit note management.

Response from Yokoy Group

Hi Michal,

First off, thanks for your review! We value your feedback and are happy to hear your employees are enjoying the tool.

In regards to the Yokoy Visa cards, we do want to use this opportunity to clarify a few things.
· We have recently switched card shipment providers and the shipment times have improved drastically to 5-7 business days.
· In response to customer feedback, we are about to release an improved transaction matching flow that will be a lot more user friendly.
· Furthermore, we have enabled the option for submitters to create credit notes themselves which improves the credit note handling.

Making our customers happy is always at the top of our to-do list. We value innovation and as you said we implement new features to the tool every month. I hope you'll stick with us to see what's new.

Best,
Yokoy

The main benefit has been the automation of some processes. Now, our employees have a tool to report their expenses, easy to use and the approvals are granted quickly. The finance team also have a great help and all the information flow is one single system.

Pros

Yokoy is easy to use and intuitive. With a simple photo of the receipt your expenses are reported. Also, the integration of the SW in our organisation was easy, well planned and the team behind it is supportive, they are the best part of the project! I would like to do a especial mention [sensitive content hidden], she is awesome: Professional, empathetic and try her best always.

Cons

There are some aspects in the product that we wanted to be customized. Even if we understand that the product is offered for a wide range of customers, the feedback reported to the Product department should be studied and replied.

Response from Yokoy Group

Hi Belen,

Thanks for your kind words about our team! We value your feedback and are thrilled you found the integration so seamless.

I appreciate your comments on increasing our customisation. We're always improving our software, so I'll pass this off to the team to factor into future updates and enhancements.
