Acquirell vs. Egixia Compras

Acquirell is well-suited when it comes to running RFP events. The flexible configurations and broad functionality of the Acquirell eSourcing module allow us to run RFPs with ease. It is much more convenient to run RFPs in Acquirell than collecting the bids via email and analyzing them manually. Acquirell is less appropriate when it comes to collecting the requisitions. There are confusing terms "requirements" and "requisitions." And it is a bit complicated to configure these "requirements."

• Good PO processing capabilities
• A robust Sourcing Module where we run our RFI, RFQ, and RFP events
• Requisitioning module that allows keeping requisitions in electronic form instead of sending emails that are always being lost
• Communication that is recorded in the system
• Approval Routes features that let us handle our complex approval flow

• Requisitioning is not convenient. It seems a bit complicated.
• There is no invoicing. It is necessary to attach separate files. I hope that Acquirell team will develop invoicing capabilities, so we will not have to attach separate files.
• The tool is mostly designed for procuring physical items than services. We had to play with the evaluation criteria to tailor Acquirell to our processes. We are procuring services more than physical products.

It really helps us to handle almost all our procurement activities (except the CLM process)

Acquirell team has conducted the Zoom sessions with us to explain and clarify all the details. Their manager Olivia and their product manager Dimitri were really approachable If there arise any issues related to working in the system the Acquirell team is always trying to respond ASAP

I haven't evaluated any other procurement solutions. Before implementing Acquirell we were using emails, Word, and Excel in our procurement processes. Overall, it is much more convenient to conduct procurement activities in Acquirell rather than to collect the bids via email and keep a bunch of Word or Excel files.

• Now the purchasing team saves a lot of time
• The number of errors has been reduced due to elimination of manual workflow
• Now we do not have to keep a lot of Word, Excel, or PDF files since most of the procurement data is stored in Acquirell. Therefore the data does not get lost
