Negotiatus is well suited for multi-location--many locations doing the same thing, such as a franchise model. However, if you really want to have tight control on costing, the reporting is not robust enough that, with scale, it would make more sense to bring this in house and create your own vendor relationships

Zycus Procure to Pay Suite is convenient in cases of organisations that look for a streamline approach and would prefer having all the information at once place. This is great when it comes to audits as the information is very clearly available on when and who did what. However, this relies greatly on information to be fed from external sources. Dependency on the vendor increases, complex for small businesses. Even after all the effort the information has to manually entered or entered through an interim application in SAP for those businessess that would like to have their data maintained in SAP. Voice of customer is often not taken in to consideration.

Consolidated invoicing--Negotiatus consolidates all invoices into one monthly invoice for us to pay by the 15th of the subsequent month.
General ledger mapping--products on the platform can be mapped to one or more entities or cost centers through a monthly consolidated file, which has great value when it comes to process efficiency.
Ease of use--the platform is fairly easy for both users and administrators. With many locations that are geographically dispersed, it allows us to manage purchasing without an excess training need.

Communicating Savings: Negotiatus sells itself on its vendor network--the ability to search for the best possible price according to what is available. However, it is challenging to tell what that savings would have been (e.g., WB Mason vs. Amazon).
Speed of Resolution: it sometimes takes a few months to come to a resolution when it comes to analysis/reporting. As they do not have great reporting around savings, we often ask for them to provide some periodic analysis. The account manager will put in the request, but it may not get completed or be up to the appropriate standard due to lack of understanding of the requirements.
Cancelled Orders: at some points early on (2+ years ago), many of the orders were cancelled and we were left scrambling to replace them. That has gotten much better.

It is less complex, easier to streamline and customize, is faster and more latest as compared to the current suites that we earlier used.
