New features meet customer needs for today's mobile workforces
Coupa Software, the leading provider of cloud-based spend management solutions, announced today state-of-the-art mobile expense technology that brings the ease of consumer applications and social computing to expense reporting.
Coupa's new solutions drive productivity and satisfaction by enabling employees to record expenses in real time, through intelligent voice activation that uses natural language interaction. Combining an easy-to-use front-end user experience with Coupa's streamlined back-end integration allows the world's largest enterprises to track expenses, monitor policies and comply in real time.
Coupa is the only expense management provider today that uses this level of intelligent voice capture to create and automatically classify expense items. Users simply describe their basic expense details to the Coupa mobile app, which then recognizes terms, categorizes items and automatically populates them into expense reports.
"Companies today are hungry for solutions that simplify the process for employees to submit expenses," said Henry Ijams, Lead Analyst at PayStream Advisors. "Coupa has implemented key enhancements like voice control in its platform while maintaining simplicity of use for today's increasingly mobile workforce."
By applying the same functionality used in everyday life to expense management, Coupa is alleviating the pain employees feel when it comes to submitting expenses, driving widespread adoption and increased compliance for greater real-time spend visibility for customers.
New features include:
"Coupa's unrelenting focus on ease-of-use for all users translates into expense management software that simplifies entry, streamlines review, eliminates paper pushing and reduces administrative effort," said Raja Hammoud, vice president of products at Coupa. "We want to provide the best and most intuitive expense reporting experience available today – and that means using innovative approaches like voice, auto-classification and others to strip away the time required to create expense reports, track down receipts and reconcile credit card statements. We're excited to redefine our industry in terms of innovation and customer expectations."
Coupa is committed to delivering impactful spend management solutions that drive top- and bottom-line savings for customers. Applying consumerization strategies to mobile offerings and incorporating collaborative procurement solutions - as enabled by the recent acquisition of ZenPurchase - Coupa offers an easy-to-use system that integrates with account payable applications such as those from Netsuite, QuickBooks, SAP, Oracle and others.
