Detailed Review
Continia is a Danish software house, founded in 1992 in Aalborg and owned since 2018 by VIA equity, a Nordic private equity fund. Its Expense Management product is not a standalone app but an add-on to Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, distributed through Microsoft AppSource and Continia's reseller network.
For a company already running Business Central, that is the appeal: receipts, mileage (via Google Maps), per diems and corporate-card imports post directly into the general ledger without a separate export step, because there is no separate system to export from. For anyone not on Business Central, the product simply does not apply.
Continia publishes no price on its own site — cost is set by the reselling partner, which makes comparison harder than with a directly-priced SaaS tool. A free trial is available straight from the Microsoft AppSource listing, which is the fastest way to see the real number for your own tenant.
What Continia does well
- Posts directly into the Business Central general ledger
- AI receipt scanning with Google Maps mileage
- Per diem calculation and card-transaction import
- 30+ years focused on the Microsoft Dynamics ecosystem
- Free trial available via Microsoft AppSource
Where Continia falls short
- Only useful if you already run Business Central
- No published pricing — set by the reseller
- Not a fit for companies on other ERPs
- No card issuing of its own, import only
Standout feature. Expense management that lives inside Business Central instead of syncing into it afterwards.
