Circula Reviews & Product Details

I've been using Circula for a few days now and I'm truly impressed. The app is very intuitively designed, so you can get started right away without having to read long instructions. What I especially like is the feature that lets you simply photograph receipts with your phone — the data is automatically extracted, saving me a lot of time typing things in.

While Circula works really well overall, some of the additional features aren’t as relevant for my daily use. For example, certain advanced reporting or integration options are great for larger finance teams, but I personally don’t use them often. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While Circula is overall useful, there are a few things I dislike:

1. The user interface can feel unintuitive at times, especially when trying to navigate between submitted and pending expenses. It takes a few extra clicks to find what I need.

2. Mobile app limitations – sometimes the app lacks the same functionality as the desktop version, which slows things down when I'm on the go.

3. Receipt scanning isn’t always accurate, which forces me to manually correct information more often than expected.

4. Lack of transparency on reimbursement timelines – it would be helpful to see a clearer overview of when to expect payments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While Circula is generally helpful, there are a few things I dislike:

The user interface can be confusing, especially when managing multiple expense reports or finding previously submitted ones.

Receipt scanning sometimes fails to extract the correct data, which leads to manual corrections.

The mobile app is limited compared to the desktop version — editing entries or tracking approvals isn't always smooth.

It would be useful to have more real-time updates on the status of reimbursements and approvals. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Circula is a great solution for travel expense and expense management. The app is very user-friendly, clear, and saves a lot of time in accounting. I particularly like that many processes are automated, thus avoiding errors. The support is fast, friendly, and competent – you always feel well taken care of. Employee feedback is also taken seriously and regularly implemented in improvements. Overall, a clear recommendation for all companies that want to modernize and simplify their processes.

Circula makes handling expenses and travel costs so much easier. The app is very user friendly, intuitive, and saves a lot of time compared to manual processes. Submitting receipts is quick and straightforward, and everything is well-structured and transparent. It’s also great for teams, since it streamlines approvals and keeps everything in one place. Overall, Circula is a reliable and efficient solution that I would definitely recommend to anyone looking to simplify expense management. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

If I had to mention one thing, it would be that sometimes the mobile app takes a moment to sync, but it’s only a minor issue compared to the overall benefits. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Circula significantly simplifies the entire process of travel expense accounting. I find the clear user interface and the ability to photograph and upload receipts directly via the app particularly helpful. The automatic recognition of receipt data saves a lot of time. Additionally, travel costs, meal allowances, and hotel expenses can be recorded in a structured and clear manner. The approval processes are also transparent and easy to understand.

A significant disadvantage is that when uploading multiple receipts, they cannot be automatically categorized and calculated into individual expenses. Instead, each receipt must be processed individually, which can be quite time-consuming on larger trips with many expenses. A function for automatic batch processing would be a significant improvement here. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Circula?

I particularly like the user-friendly interface and the clear structure, which makes it very easy to quickly submit receipts and expenses. Additionally, the automated processing saves a lot of time compared to manual accounting.

What is the most helpful thing about Circula?

I find the transparency and traceability of the submitted expenses to be the most helpful. You always have an overview of the status of the accounting and can centrally view all relevant information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you not like about Circula?

Partly, the loading times are somewhat long, and some functions could be designed to be more intuitive. Additionally, some processes seem quite rigid, making individual adjustments difficult.

What is the least helpful about Circula?

The least helpful thing, in my opinion, is that some automatisms do not always work correctly, for example, in the automatic recognition of receipt information. This sometimes necessitates manual post-processing, which reduces the time advantage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I can record all my expenses on the run and be done with it...it's super simple, it's intuitive, you can do it all via App or additionally via Browser App...what can I say....if I could wish for an App, this is what I would want to have.

My favourite feature is, that I can upload pdfs from my phone into the App (like airdrop) or send pdfs to an Email address. Either you allocate it to a journey right away or later....

Disclaimer: used it to track expenses for 2 weeks. No long term experience or backoffice experience, but so far it's a discussion between 9 or 10 out of 10 points. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hard to think of anything....if there is any criticism at all then I'd say you have to run through a set of process steps whilst adding an expense. As all steps are prefilled anyhow, they could be all listed and confirmed or adapted in a single overview step, which would reduce clicking even further.

I find it confusing, that each expense has a title/reason as well as an allocation to a journey. So if you travel to a workshop and your journey is called workshop, the title/reason for the travel expense has to be stated anyway...so you name it "workshop" as well, like the journey. Did you get it? Yeah....found it confusing, too. I guess it's a regulatory necessity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Circula for my travel expense accounting and am completely satisfied. It is particularly practical that receipts can be easily captured by photo and the system automatically recognizes and enters the relevant data. This eliminates a large part of the manual entries and makes the accounting significantly faster and more straightforward.

The entries are overall very intuitively designed, guiding you step by step through the process. The clear structure and user guidance also greatly facilitate the processing.

Circula saves me a lot of time and ensures that the travel expense accounting is reliable and error-free – a highly recommended tool! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I currently have no negatives to mention. Everything is great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Today, I used the Circula application for the first time to submit business expenses. The user interface has been logically designed to facilitate immediate utilisation by new employees, thus ensuring a seamless transition into the workflow. I find the ability to upload receipts in a quick and straightforward manner to be a particularly practical feature. This process is significantly more efficient than the previous manual submission and entry methods. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I am pleased to inform you that I have not noticed any disadvantages so far. The program has been implemented without any problems, all functions work as expected. Compared to other tools I have come across so far, I have not noticed any shortcomings or missing functions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I especially like the clean user interface and the simple usage. It's a great upgrade to our old system and the best thing is, that I can finally keep track of all the work related travel costs! I can also reuse old entries in case I am traveling to the same place more than once. This function saves a lot of time for me and usually all I have to change is the date of the travel.

During my short time using cicrula I didn't find anything that I dislike. Should I find something in the long run, I will update this review. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
