Rebranded: Formerly TripActions, rebranded to Navan in 2023 (general knowledge, not re-verified)
Our take for buyers
Navan, formerly TripActions, is a travel-first platform with a bundled expense module. It is rebranded under the Navan name since 2023. The Business tier suits companies up to 300 employees with heavy travel, and Enterprise covers larger ones. G2 rates it 4.7 out of 5 across 9,517 reviews, a large sample that makes the rating hard to dismiss. Expect to ask about security terms yourself.
Shortlist it if travel is your core need and you would like expense in the same tool. Be careful if you want expense only. The product started with travel, and expense is an add-on module. Navan's pricing page does not mention SSO or contract terms, so a security-minded buyer should treat those as open questions and put them to the vendor before shortlisting. Expect to ask about contract length too.

What to test in a Navan demo or trial
Test travel booking first, since it is the core: book a realistic trip, check policy rules and approval workflows, and call the 24/7 support agents with an issue. Then test expense: receipt scanning, expense approvals and reimbursements. Navan connects existing corporate or business cards, but card issuance is not described, so ask about it. Check the accounting side too, since Navan says it integrates with most ERPs and 30+ HRIS systems. Confirm your own ERP is covered.
