Overall Satisfaction with Acquirell

1. We run RFPs via Acquirell eSourcing Module
2. We consolidate all critical tools like POs, Contracts, Supplier Database, and eSourcing in a single system
3. We can initiate a contract just after finalizing RFP event
4. We can conduct supplier prequalification before running sourcing activities

Mainly, Acquirell enables us to automate the main processes in our procurement activities: PO and Contract Management, RFPs, etc.
  • Robust sourcing module with very flexible configurations is a great tool for running RFPs
  • We can easily send POs to the suppliers via Acquirell
  • The great Contract Management module lets us administrate the contracts easily
  • We can easily handle the supplier database
  • 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.
  • eSourcing
  • PO management
  • Contract management
  • Supplier relationship manangement
  • 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
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.

Yes

Did implementation of Acquirell go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Acquirell again?

Yes

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."
