Product Description

Shoeboxed is a business document management SaaS tool that scans, organizes and categorizes receipts and paperwork into a searchable cloud database. They help small businesses and entrepreneurs get organized and maximize tax deductions by turning physical paper into digital data.

How do you position yourself against your competitors?

Unlike other receipt tracking and organization products, Shoeboxed offers a prepaid mail-in service allowing Shoeboxed users to skip the steps of manual scanning and data entry. Once someone signs up for a Shoeboxed Premium free trial, Shoeboxed sends them a prepaid envelope they can fill with receipts, business cards and other paper clutter. The envelope is then dropped in the mail for the Shoeboxed team to scan, data extract and categorize their documents. All paperwork is sent back to the users unless they request otherwise - in which case Shoeboxed securely shreds and recycles it on site.

What do you like best about Shoeboxed?

We love that we can put any document in an envelope or send it electronically and it will be cataloged perfectly. It's easy to search for documents because of very good OCR. Often we search for a receipt or document that we dumped in an envelop at some point, and we find it instantly! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Shoeboxed?

It takes a few days for documents to be entered when sending them. But, only days! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Shoeboxed:

Super easy to use for business or personal use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Shoeboxed solving and how is that benefiting you?

A lot of times we misplace the magic envelops and you only get so many. I wish we had more laying around the office. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Shoeboxed?

It keeps track of my receipts so I don't have to. It makes taxes easier in the long run as well because it divides them up by categories and dates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Shoeboxed?

Doesn't automatically scan for tax paid. Which can be a hassle when you have to go back and edit each receipt that you input. Customer support isn't very timely and although they try to help, they often don't have the answers you are looking for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Shoeboxed:

Use free version, it'll be more accurate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Shoeboxed solving and how is that benefiting you?

Receipts often fade and are a pain to keep track of. Using the app makes its easier to kept everything in order. It also makes it easier when you need to search for a particular receipt because you can search vendors or price or a variety of other searches. You can also access it from anywhere that you have internet instead of using a software based application, where you need to have you computer on hand in order to access it.

What do you like best about Shoeboxed?

Fetch is very easy to learn and use. You can take pictures of the receipts so you don't have to hang onto the paper versions and quickly submit them for reimbursement. It really eases the stress of creating expense reports and having to input all that data! I highly recommend this app over others because its incredible streamlined and saves time/ headache. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Shoeboxed?

I have found Fetch to the be the easiest and best reimbursement app out there because it is customizable for your company. There is nothing I dislike about this particular app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Shoeboxed:

I highly recommend this app compared to other. I think you will find it easy for both employees and bookkeepers. It is also customizable, which no other app I have used provides this feature. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Shoeboxed solving and how is that benefiting you?

Our company would submit paper expense reports, with receipts stapled to the expense report, which would create a lot of paper mess - along with an decreased likelihood of lost receipts making its back to the office. But Fetch allows for our receipts to be captured the moment they are handed to the employee and not only submitted for reimbursement, but also creates easy to read reports that are categorized!

What do you like best about Shoeboxed?

Shoeboxed just does 'everything' for me - it is a great way to offload all my expenses and paper clutter, I just send those to Shoeboxed and I'm done; my accountant loves me and I feel really good knowing everything is in its place and organized when I need it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Shoeboxed?

I had some problems with the iPhone app crashing a couple years ago, but seems all good now! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Shoeboxed solving and how is that benefiting you?

I need to keep all my receipts, invoices, credit card statements, delivery notifications etc. for my business. Without Shoeboxed that would be a painful "filing cabinet organization" or something like that, constantly trying to find things, and also - making collaboration with other people in the company, and my accountant much much harder. With SHoeboxed all of that is on autopilot. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Shoeboxed?

It is so easy to submit receipts to HR now. I used to have a dedicated envelope that would get lost in my giant computer bag and then I would have a nest of crumpled receipts. I just snap a picture of my receipt while checking out and submit it quickly. No more receipt nests in my purse, car, desk or pocket. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Shoeboxed?

The "Reimbursable" toggle is automatically set to reimbursable. Most of my expenses are made using a company card. I had to go into settings and change the settings so that I was no longer categorizing receipts incorrectly. It is not a HUGE issue, just needed to learn the fix after a couple of mistakes and notifying HR. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Shoeboxed:

It makes it easy for employees to submit their receipts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Shoeboxed solving and how is that benefiting you?

I'm not on the management side of my organization but ease of use has made a huge difference when communicating with our HR department and submitting expenses/receipts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Shoeboxed?

The ease of uploading receipts, the ability to categorize expenses, the east to approving and paying on the backend Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Shoeboxed?

The new interface is WEIRD, everything is SO big, and the functionality seems to be buggy -- for instance, if I try to edit a receipt on the web version, I can do that but there is no way to save those changes. It's also hard to really tell if you've been paid for everything -- the numbers as submitted, approved, paid, always seem to be off. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Shoeboxed solving and how is that benefiting you?

Expense management, it's been easier for us to pull reports and saves employees time Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Shoeboxed?

I work out of my car and coffee shops, so it allows me to very quickly and conveniently report expenses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Shoeboxed?

I have to remember to toggle the reimbursement button off, as we have expense cards. However, when I was taking the login screenshot for this review, I saw the option to switch the default! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Shoeboxed:

It's incredibly easy to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Shoeboxed solving and how is that benefiting you?

Previously, we had to turn in paper receipts each week. It was too easy to lose receipts, so Fetch allows us to immediately report the expenses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Shoeboxed?

The ease of being able to track our teams expenses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Shoeboxed?

Nothing I can think of right now. Any issues that I had, the support team was right on fixing the problem. So at this time, we are extremely happy with this app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Shoeboxed solving and how is that benefiting you?

The problem we are solving is being able to track our teams expenses as we have employees that are in satellite offices. It make it easy to be able to export them into a Excel spreadsheet and use them for our expense reimbursement purposes. Makes the reimbursement go a lot quicker.
