I've weighted those accordingly and leaned on what the platforms actually offer.\n\n## For most small businesses\n\n**1. Navan** (formerly TripActions) - My default recommendation. The \"Navan Business\" tier is free for small/mid-size companies, and it bundles travel booking *and* expense management in one place, so you're not paying for a TMC plus Expensify. Good inventory, 24/7 support, policy enforcement built in. The catch: it monetizes through booking commissions and its corporate card, and it's really built for companies with some travel volume - if you book four trips a year, the setup overhead isn't worth it. Rated 4.7/5 across ~9,500 G2 reviews.

TravelPerk** - The one I'd pick over Navan if you're Europe-heavy or if traveler experience matters more than finance controls.
