Pros:

Not only can I store my receipts digitally, without worrying about keeping the paper copy, but I can also save them on the Cloud and access them from any device.

Longer receipts can be a pain to get to scan, and the app does freeze up and close on it's own every so often causing slightly more work.

If only....

5.0 6 years ago

Comments: I purchased Itemize when it appeared I would need to keep accurate records of expenditure incurred as a part of my role. However, my employer changed the system that was previously used, rendering the need for Itemize redundant. Despite my change of circumstances and my cessation of a need, I have continued to promote Itemize to friends and colleagues in other areas. Some have taken my suggestion seriously and become customes.

Pros:

I found Itemize incredibly intuitive, easy to use and very functional.

Cons:

I don't think I have any negative experiences to cite.

Don’t Get Lost in the Shuffle: Receipt Tracking Made Easy

5.0 5 years ago

Comments: This software is great, as it takes away so much of the hassle and frustration I’ve experienced in the past when trying to keep track of and categorized my receipts and expenses. It’s like hiring an accountant for $10 a month!

Pros:

The fact that I am able to take a picture of my receipt and have the important information imported into Itemize saves time and frustration! Not only can I store my receipts digitally, without worrying about keeping the paper copy, but I can also save them on the Cloud and access them from any device. Another great feature is the ability to sort through my receipts based on various categories. But, best of all: I’m able to create PDFs and import all of my expense information into programs like Quickbooks and Excel.

Cons:

I’ve encountered some bugs while using the program; however, most problems have been fixed with their latest update. Unfortunately, the app can run a bit slow. I also wish that they would lower the price point for the premium version (the only version that is worth it), however, in the long run, I probably saved just as much on taxes by being able to itemize my expenses accurately as I have spent subscribing to this app.

It just about does the job.

3.0 7 years ago

Pros:

It's easy to forward receipts to and it's one of the few tracking apps out there for receipts and my business. I used to use expensed which I was happy with but this is a good replacement.

Cons:

It takes any and all email receipts and adds it to your expenses even when it doesn't apply to you business which makes you have to filter out everything that is applicable.

It's the Expense Tracker that we Needed

5.0 5 years ago

Comments: It's a solid product with an extremely functional app. The reports are easy to run. There's no reason a company shouldn't use this tool.

Pros:

As a user, my receipts have never been more organized. Basically, snapping a photo is so much easier than having to use a scanner every time, which is what I used to do. I went out to lunch with someone from another business that didn't use Itemize, and he was very jealous of how easy it was for me.

Cons:

I haven't experienced any cons. I've only used the basics of the software, so there are probably a lot of features out there that I don't even know about yet.

Good app to track expenses

4.0 6 years ago

Comments: The concept/app is very good, but need to improve the use for multiple countries

Pros:

Great ACR capabilities, so identify most of the texts of the invoices.

Cons:

Multi currency/countries does not work well. Do not have a favorites countries/currencies list so it is hard to add bills of other countries. Bug adding bills manually.

my experience has been mediocre

3.0 7 years ago

Comments: Photos of receipts.

Pros:

I like the ability to take photos on the fly. I also like the ability to make reports with pictures of the receipts and a total.

Cons:

I can't link different emails. It is slow. It is not very intuitive. Labeling things on the fly is not possible.

This is a lifesaver!

5.0 6 years ago

Pros:

Great way to take all those paper receipts and itemize them with ease. Uses a cloud server to keep track of all the data from those paper receipts. Keep things organized and maintained.

Cons:

I have not found any cons thus far. There haven't been any transfer errors so far.

Pros:

Awesome program for those self employed

5.0 8 years ago

Comments: As a traveling evangelist, I cannot keep files with me at all times. Itemize has helped my expense tracking majorly. I can take a photo of my receipt, categorize it and move on. And, come tax season I can quickly and easily run reports for my deductions. I highly recommend it for anyone who constantly finds themselves spending hours tracking paper copies of receipts and then spending countless hours at tax season calculating. The price you pay for it is way less than you'd pay an accountant and the savings in deductions make the program pay for itself.

This app has saved me so much time!

5.0 7 years ago

Pros:

1. Never have to look for a receipt again 2. Stores accept pictures of the receipts for returns 3. End of the year report for tax purposes - The is has saved me HOURS of year end time when doing my taxes

Cons:

1. Categories - wish I could just make my own and delete the other ones 2. Sometimes it's slow to connect to server so it takes a while to update my database. 3. Wish I could set up auto reports - where it would send them to my email monthly, yearly.

Love this program!

3.0 6 years ago

Comments: I believe it’s a little expensive, as I only use it for my household expenses. I am retired so I do not have business expenses. I would love a little bit of a discount next year if possible .

Pros:

The spreadsheets I can print at the end of the year!

Cons:

Some of the glitches are frustrating, such as entering the type of expense, any title with the first letter higher than an L is not showing up right now!

General Receipt Records

4.0 8 years ago

Comments: Use program solely for recording receipts at time & convenience of recording to expense categories is adequate for the needs. Anymore complicated than that have not explored.

Pros:

Convenient at time to quickly take copy of receipts log into expense category

Cons:

The system shuts down often

Thanks for the great review! I have noted your suggestions and would love additional input as to what you mean on "picking up categories off sales receipts" as our system should be identifying categories of all known merchants in our system.

Pros:

I use Itemize personally and it has made my life much easier.

Cons:

Itemize does a good job of capturing all of the data

5.0 8 years ago

Comments: I've been using sone sort of scanner for years to keep track of my exspenses. None have really worked very well. I spent a lot of time typing in info that wasn't captured. Itemize works most of the time. Taxes are going to be a breeze this year.

Pros:

It captures data reliably. I like being able to use my iPhone to scan on the spot.

Cons:

It's expensive.

Best Expense Tracker I have found

5.0 6 years ago

Comments: This has really helped me out tremendously keeping receipts straight / assigned to the correct job and printing professional looking expense reports.

Pros:

The best thing is the camera capture and OCR, you take a photo, it automatically loads into the app and starts to extract the data. I would say that 8.5-9 times of 10 the data extraction is prefect, yes every once in a while you need to clarify some data points, but I think that's to be expected with these type of application.

Cons:

Logging into the website.. Sometimes its easier to work on the full website to modify / print large reports, but the login portal isn't the easiest to find.

I can manage my receipts immediately

4.0 8 years ago

Comments: Instead of gathering my receipts from a business trip and taking the time when I arrive back to the office, I am able to click and save receipts as I get them. It is a great time management device for me.

Pros:

Convenience

Cons:

It took me a while to figure out everything I can do with it and I am still learning.
