Seamless Migration from Nexonia: Unified Time and Expense Solutions
If you're a Nexonia customer who has received migration guidance from Emburse about separating your Timesheets and Expense systems, you're not alone. For many organizations, this creates an important decision point: split Time and Expense across multiple vendors, or migrate to a unified platform that keeps everything together?
DATABASICS is a proven, integrated alternative—one platform for Timesheets, Expense Reports, or both—and provides a low-risk migration path for Nexonia Time and Expense customers, ensuring business continuity, improved functionality, and better long-term experience.
Our goal is simple: we take care of the heavy lifting, so you don’t have to.
What's Happening with Nexonia?
Nexonia customers using both Time and Expense functionality have received guidance from Emburse indicating that Timesheets will be handled separately from Expense going forward, with UKG recommended as the time tracking solution. This shift means organizations would need to:
- Manage two separate vendors (Emburse for Expense, UKG for Time)
- Integrate data between disconnected systems
- Navigate two different support relationships
- Maintain separate contracts and billing
For many organizations, this creates an opportunity to evaluate whether a unified time and expense platform better serves their long-term needs.
Why Organizations Choose Unified Time & Expense Over Split Systems
When time tracking and expense management are split across vendors, you get:
- Data Fragmentation: Time worked and expenses incurred exist in separate systems, requiring manual reconciliation
- Approval Complexity: Managers must approve timesheets in one system and expenses in another
- Integration Overhead: Connecting two third-party systems to your ERP requires dual integrations and ongoing maintenance
- Additional Vendor Management: Two support relationships, two billing cycles, two renewal negotiations
- Poor User Experience: Employees must learn and access two different platforms
DATABASICS eliminates these challenges by providing Time and Expense in a single, integrated platform.
