Frequently asked questions
What is expense management software for professional services?
Expense management software for professional services firms automates the tracking, approval and reconciliation of operational and project-related costs — covering client-work budgets, staff purchases, travel expenses, invoices and reimbursements. Budgetly’s solution is built specifically for professional services businesses, helping firms manage multiple clients, jobs and internal operations with real-time visibility and control.
Why should professional services organisations use specialised expense management software instead of generic tools or spreadsheets?
Professional services firms often juggle multiple projects, client budgets, mobile staff and tight profit margins. Generic spreadsheets or basic expense tools lack features like project-based budget tracking, mobile receipt capture, spend-approval workflows and deep integration with accounting systems.
With Budgetly you also benefit from:
- Real-time expense tracking and instant visibility into project spend and resource allocation.
- Budgeting and cost-control per client or job, helping manage profitability.
- Automated workflows, invoice capture, and integration with tools like invoice management software and digital receipt tracking.
This means you can reduce admin overhead, improve cost-control and maintain focus on delivering high-quality services.
What is the best expense management software for Australian professional services firms?
For Australian professional services businesses, the best solution should support AUD transactions, integrate with local accounting platforms (such as via the Xero Integration), enable project/job-based budgeting and tracking, and link to card-based spending workflows. Budgetly meets these criteria — offering tools like corporate cards and virtual cards for project teams, plus real-time spend analytics and seamless accounting integration.
How can Budgetly improve decision-making for my professional services business?
Budgetly centralises all expense, card and invoice data into one dashboard — enabling your leadership team to monitor spend by project, client or department, identify cost overruns early, and optimise resource allocation. With features like accounting automation software and digital receipt tracking, your data becomes reliable and actionable, helping you move from reactive reconciliation to proactive financial management.
How much does expense management software for professional services cost?
Pricing depends on your business size (number of users, number of clients/jobs, transaction volume), and required features (cards, tracking, integrations). Budgetly offers scalable and transparent pricing tailored to Australian professional services firms. To get a precise quote based on your firm’s size and workflows, you can schedule a demo.
How to get started with Budgetly’s expense management software for professional services?
Getting started is straightforward:
- Visit the industry-specific page for professional services on Budgetly.
