Open question//discussion on use a Travel solution

Hey!
Do any of you Expensify admins use a travel solution at your company? (Concur, Egencia, Nextravel, Tripactions, AmexGBT, etc.) Looking for to ask some questions to you about it, whether you use an Expensify integration or not.
Please respond here or hit me up.
@tylerzoll @Aussiebandit You guys?

We currently use concur, but it is not a requirement and not at complete adaptation across our company.
Would love to hear other's experiences, especially with any of the ones that have integrations with Expensify. (Assuming Expensify doesn't plan on phasing out some of the support/features like they have for other integrations or features above their base product)

@Daveweez - no we don't use a travel solution at the moment. Be interested to learn more on this though.

@Daveweez We don't use a travel solution either. We are small enough that we just have a travel agent that takes care of everyting for us. She is pretty good and does a good job of working for us, not necissarilly the person booking the ticket

We are going to move forward with a pilot of Tripactions. We were impressed with what we saw. Ill share more details once we are live.
-
@Daveweez That's cool, I will have to look into Tripactions.
-
Let me know if you want some more details or an intro to sales.
-
@Daveweez - are they a global solution?
-
To a certain extent they are. Working on getting more global.

Hi @Daveweez, have you integrated TripActions? If so, how did it go? We are considering this and would be really interested in connecting and hearing about your experience?

Hi @Sheena Trepanier What about NexTravel?
Our client has been working with NexTravel directly to implement and they are told it integrates with Expensify. Can you confirm or deny?
I have a meeting with the NexTravel rep in a couple of days to discuss.

Hey guys - just popping back in here
we have been on TripActions for over a year. It is a rock solid platform. Very happy with our decision to move on to the platform.

Thanks @Ted Peeters I just found the article myself as well. Should have searched articles before community! 😊
4 mins response time is not too shabby though Ted! Good job.
-
@Daveweez Awesome, thanks for the info.
In this case our client is driving the project internally and looks like they've already chosen NexTravel but I'll ask just in case they are still reviewing suitable vendors.
