    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.

    SAP Ariba works very well for PO flip / manual PO processing. SAP Ariba can have issues if there are translation compatibility issues between what a trading partner sends and what the network is expecting, particularly if each trading partner uses separate languages. :IE - customer uses XML and Supplier uses EDI transmission.

    Well suited for tracking partner success and other commercial roles but can seem overwhelming for those who are new to it. Specific scenarios are the ability to be able to pull relevant data into charts and graphs that can be made into actionable tasks for commercial teams to pursue. It is less appropriate for non-tech associates due to its data analysis ways.

    Cons
    Precoro
    • For companies with more complex inventory needs, additional features in that area could be helpful.
    • The mobile app is great for approvals, but it could support more features from the desktop version.
    • Occasionally, loading reports with a large amount of data takes a few extra seconds.

Integration Capabilities: The system is easy to integrate with backend SAP ERP system. Support from Ariba team is a bit sluggish in terms of Service Requests

    Feel that over the years, there has been good improvement, and it seems like going in the right direction. All procurement activities — sourcing, contracting, invoicing — are managed in one place, reducing the need to switch between multiple systems. Users can easily track purchase orders, supplier responses, and invoice status, which adds clarity and accountability. The supplier-facing side is well-structured, allowing vendors to upload documents, view transactions, and communicate within the same interface.

    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.

    It's important to note that user experiences may vary, and the perceived areas for improvement depend on the specific needs and expectations of each organization. Frequent updates and feedback from users often guide software developers in addressing these areas to enhance the overall user satisfaction with the platform

    • We can track each purchase order, who created it, and why. They are no longer lost, and we can always see the history. The dashboard allows us to monitor information about all essential documents and at what stage they are now and keep track of which invoices have not yet been paid or partially paid.
    • By setting up budgets for each department, we can effectively plan the allocation and prevent overspending.
    • The system is very flexible and convenient. I can't imagine my work without it.

    • We saved nearly 10% of planned costs due to the large database of vendors we created within the company as a whole.
    • Saving in time due to shortening of procurement cycles. Procurement activities were never on the critical path and were accomplished with less Supply Chain resources than originally planned.
    • In the process we created a huge database of Vendors and Pricing which well be beneficial in our future projects.
    • It is an excellent tool and just what are business required and could afford.
