New Horizon Supply Chain Planning Suite vs. Precoro

New Horizon Supply Chain Planning Suite is a very user-friendly system which gives you the latitude to change your forecasting models based on the product and sales trends. It is also very easy to export and import data to transfer information to and from Excel files as it uses an Excel like platform. Therefore, it gives you the control to be able to control your forecast where needed due to sales promotions or loss of sales distribution.

Precoro is great if you need to keep your organization aware of where in the purchasing process an order is, and if you need a place to communicate about orders & keep a record of those communications. It does not work too well for a variety of purchasing requests - the process lacks complexity.

At first glance it seemed to be rather difficult in use, but actually it turned out to be much easier [than] we thought. Thanks to the Precoro team we could go through the procurement workflow. Now with [the] right, user-friendly software partner, we are absolutely ready to meet all [our] company's needs.

Precoro is a company, which makes great products for businesses. What is more, it is a team of professionals, who are always keep[ing] in touch with you. Thanks [to] Precoro, we easily go through procurement workflow and manage all of our POs in a couple of minutes. We had a great experience with the Precoro team which helped us with installation of the software.

We were using Demantra systems for our forecasting needs, but as new versions became available and old versions, which we had, were discontinued we found the need to either upgrade or look for a new system. The Demantra upgrade was very costly and New Horizon fit our needs while being on the cloud, so most all of the upgrades were done behind the scenes with no down time. The implementation was a breeze, and the customer service was always there when you needed it. Overall, it was a very good choice for us to make the change.

Precoro is unique because it can be customizable from start to finish without needing to build in API. It is extremely easy to use and understand, so we did not need to give our employees extensive training as we did with Tradogram. Precoro also allowed us to communicate about orders right within the order itself, where the other software did not.
