“Platform Enables Team Trip Management But Faces Regional Pricing Challenges”

4.0

Nov 21, 2025

It is a very good platform, it allows us to give access to our team members so they can manage their own trips but it also lets us make purchases on other people's behalf. Not only that, it has multiple options of hotels. It is simple and quick.

CRITICAL

“Platform Lacks User Friendliness, Leading to Bookings Outside the System”

2.0

Nov 5, 2025

It's not the most user friendly platform. I often book work-related travel outside the platform to give myself more flexibility.

How user friendly the platform is. You don't have to spend a lot of time on it to learn how to navigate it.

Stored payment options.

Implementation and integration was easier than previous Expense Reporting systems, so it was more cost effective. Reported cost of licensing was lower than the alternatives we considered. Submission of expense reports and review of those was simplified significantly, saving time for employees, managers and support team.

In some countries such as Brazil, the prices for hotels and flights are most of the time double the price and we had to look for a local provider for that location. You cannot pre-pay car rentals. Also not so many flight partner, always the same companies and sometimes very expensive while we find others on Google and they are much cheaper.

Navan related booking fee.

There could be more chances for inaccurate reports slipping through the cracks due to the simplified reporting and automatic approvals. The likelihood that it occurs should be reduced by after-the-fact reviews by management and the support team, but it is still more likely than other approaches. This solution does not support customized car-allowance rates based on regional or location meta data.

Integration Process Simplified and Expense Reporting Costs Reduced With Recent Solution

Apr 8, 2026

This solution was at a better price-point, relatively straightforward integration (due to a somewhat recent different integration) and simplified the entire process of submission/review/workflow of expense reports. It also decreased the overall cost of processing employees' expenses including the time required for entering and approval of expense reports.

Navan is a great travel resource with added perks, such as the Navan rewards that employees can use for personal travel. The setup was easy to deploy, and it does have integration capability with our HRIS.

We have implemented Navan expense management for all our entities and it is very easy to use. It has exceptional OCR capabilities which gathers major information and makes expense ready to use. Its mobile application is user friendly. Approvals are easy to approve. Though it has minor limitations with one of the entities, but Navan suggested very great work around and it is seamless now. overall experience with Navan is great.
