Where each one falls short
Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.
Navan
- Enterprise pricing requires quote request; no transparency on true per-user or per-transaction costs
- Expense management charges apply beyond 5 users, increasing per-user costs for larger teams
- Corporate card programmes (Navan Card, Connect) complicate adoption by requiring banking integration
- AI assistant (Navan Edge) lacks transparency on data handling; unclear whether conversation data is retained for model training
- Limited EMEA coverage; emerging market travel inventory less comprehensive than global GDS systems
Fortnox
- Corporate packages alone span at least 7 named tiers (Mini through Stor+) priced from 209 kr/man to 919 kr/man, and add-on programs are billed separately per module (SEK)
- The Fortnox Access verification tier is priced by transaction volume, rising from 9 kr/man at zero verifications to 199 kr/man at 1000+ verifications (SEK), so cost is not fixed and scales with usage
