Expens’d Updates – Tracking Tax

by Rob Bazinet on May 6, 2010

We have deployed a couple of updates to Expens’d today.  Including:

  • Adding tax as an option when adding an expense.  Users asked for the ability to track tax separately when entering a new expense as some countries like the UK want this.  Tax is also show separately on the main page when viewing expenses as well as in your expense report.
  • Fixed an error when trying to enable Tripit integration.  Users reported getting a 500 error when trying to add a connection BEFORE connections were enabled on an account.

We have many more updates coming so please stay tuned as we get this updates wrapped up.

Thank you!!

Plans Begin to Take Shape, Acquisition of Expens’d

by Rob Bazinet on January 21, 2010

Today marks the beginning of the future for Still River Software.  We have been in the process of developing our suite of products (yet to be announced) and also pursuing products to purchase which aligns with our vision.  Today is the day we announce the acquisition of Expens’d from Atlantic Domion Solutions, LLC of Winter Park, FL.

Expens’d is an application that does a specific task and does it well.  As we all know as business people we need to keep track of our expenses, not a glamorous job but one that needs to be done and Expens’d makes it easy.  We plan to make it dead simple as we grow Expens’d in the coming months.  Please watch here for announcements of updates.

In the meantime, some bit of details about the deal as announced on the ADS blog this morning:

WINTER PARK, FL (January 18, 2010)…Atlantic Dominion Solutions (ADS) – a leading project management and custom development firm – today announced the sale of its popular expense tracking application, Expens’d, to Still River Software. The move advances strategic objectives for both companies and bolsters their respective positions in the highly competitive market for technology services.

For ADS, the sale of Expens’d reflects the company’s shift toward more personalized, consulting-based services and demonstrates a strong commitment to this new area of focus. Yet, as CEO Robert Dempsey explains, the impact to end-users was an important consideration in finding the right buyer.

Still River Software was the ideal partner to work with on this transaction,” said Dempsey. “We wanted to ensure a seamless transition for Expens’d users, with no down time, to a company capable of delivering responsive support and developing smart solutions to key business problems. Still River was the clear choice.”

The acquisition also marks an opportunity for Still River Software to expand its offering of innovative applications designed to resolve pain points and meet specific needs. In Expens’d, the company gains an already successful product with an established customer base of more than 2,500 users. Still River founder Robert Bazinet affirms Dempsey’s assertion that the move will yield an advantage for these users.

“We’re thrilled to add such a widely used application to our roster,” stated Bazinet. “It addresses an important need by simplifying expense tracking and management, and ADS has always developed excellent products. But we also see great benefits for current users – not only will they continue to enjoy uninterrupted performance and support, they’ll also be introduced to the other unique solutions we provide.”
