    Suitable: Simple indirect procurement. Low cost; short cycle implementation. Less Suitable: Complex procurement scenario requiring serious vendor collaboration. End-to-end integration. Direct Material Procurement, especially when planning, quality inspection, and other miscellaneous activities are involved, requires handling various special statuses and updates to meet industry- or country-specific requirements.

    Rippling is an amazing company for anyone who needs a way to handle all a company's financial needs in one place. I, for one, do not know of a scenario in which Rippling would not benefit a company unless that company has its own financial department.

    Pros
    Coupa Software
    • Coupa is easy to use, however, we had to teach our end users about procurement. They are not used to conducting an RFP, onboarding a supplier, or preparing a PO. This is the change management that our employees had to be prepared to understand. The Shelby Group helped us with the implementation.
    • The hardest part was the integration between NetSuite and Coupa. We wanted to have a dynamic tight integration between the two solutions. If we adjusted the chart of accounts or added a new supplier we wanted it to be able to done in both systems and be available immediately in both systems. We used a partner called SuiteSkies to accomplish this dynamic integration.
    • We’ve been able to manage the implementation and maintenance with a very lean IT group.

    • Payroll: it shows exactly what has changed for each individual from cycle to cycle, so I can easily flag any issues
    • Reviews: Very easy to set up and to customize, and able to set different due dates for different aspects of the review process (and set different forward facing and internal due dates)
    • Spend/Finance: Can't say enough about how nice it is to manage our credit cards, expenses, and reimbursements all from our HR platform. It's one of their newer offerings so there are improvements that could be made, but it's still a huge step up for us from how we were managing these, from both the admin side and employee user experience.

    Cons
    Coupa Software
    • Support Team - A little slow in responding. I think the tool is so configurable that they struggle with figuring out what is causing certain issues that are being submitted on the portal.
    • I'd love for the Sourcing Module to be able to support larger events. There seems to be a limit on the number of lines each event can support and as a growing retailer, our store count dictates we have room to grow and that each store is represented in the bid process.
    • Would like to see the ability to issue multiple POs for a single item to multiple locations. The tool may do this but I know I can't and it may be due to how we interface with our ERP.

    • Could clarify what is being asked when creating expense reports.
    • It could make 2FA more intuitive on mobile, such as allowing iPhone users to use Face ID as an alternative if the device is locked.
    • Overall avoid using too much jargon when asking questions.

    Usability

    -Could be easy or hard to use depending on corporate policies and compliance. At times, errors and cryptical message associated with them could drive users mad.

    As I have said before, Rippling is incredibly user friendly, easy to navigate and quite simple. Features are labeled clearly and adequately which helps discovery and navigation to be quick and seamless. Error and loading screens always notify me of my location within the user journey which is reassuring as an avid user

    Support Rating
    Coupa Software
    -Support is generally speaking OK (not great). The user community is quite active, and the response time is acceptable. I would certainly hope there's more user-generated content (like in SAP, Oracle, and Linux, etc.), but I suppose Coupa is still not large enough, and the incentives are not yet there.

    Rippling has been super proactive in being a resource for us, and doing whatever possible to make our experience with their company easier. Among the best I've ever seen frankly. Their kindness radiates out of their emails, and their diligence, thoughtfulness, and attention to detail are phenomenal. Whoever's running their customer service department deserves a raise.

    Concur was a lot easier and more user friendly for employees doing expense reports on their phone. That is not the case with Coupa. You must use your laptop to do expenses and our managers don't always have enough time to do that while out in the field working. This has caused some issues.

    Rippling is WAY better than Nexonia in almost every way. It's been a long time since I used Expensify, but Rippling has new features, such as a digital expense/per diem card, that Expensify did not have when I was using it.

    • Accounting team is able to get month end done quicker due to Rippling Spend - thanks to the ease of use of the credit card and expense management function, employees are staying on top of their expenses and transactions are approved in a timely manner
    • Employees have noticed that the new product is better than our previous one, and voiced approval/thanks
    • The review process (being able to set different due dates for different aspects of process; ability to nominate peer reviews in system) is superior to our previous system and gives our reviews a more polished and less complicated feel
