Overall Satisfaction with SAP Ariba Procurement

After evaluating various S2P products like ARIBA, Coupa, etc, ARIBA was finalized. We're already using many SAP products so it was worthwhile to invest in this product due to more accessible integration options and also the backing from SAP was important.
  • End to end S2P solution
  • easy integration with SAP ECC/S4
  • Backed by SAP's continuous cloud innovation
  • UI needs to be modernized
  • The learning curve for users is still huge
  • vendor pipeline feature is expensive
  • Vendor access across the globe
  • Central procurement
  • cloud based
  • Cloud based, no infra maintenaance
  • Upgrades are automated
  • easy dashboard for full transparency
For companies already using SAP as ERP software, it makes sense to go with AIBA for P2P for S2P needs because of the easy integrations and pre-built scenarios offered by SAP which saves a lot of time on the implementation part. It can be integrated with GRC as well for SOD needs.
  • Product Features
  • Product Usability
  • Product Reputation
  • Prior Experience with the Product
Have used it in prior companies where we switched from SAP SRM 7.5. The overall implementation was smooth and very simplified and reduced a lot of custom coding requirements which saved a lot of consulting costs.
It makes sense to use ARIBA is you're already an SAP shop.

Yes

Did SAP Ariba live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of SAP Ariba go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy SAP Ariba again?

Yes

It's a one-stop shop for suppliers and buyers. If the company has global operations, access to international suppliers is within reach. I would say it's a one-stop shop. The ARIBA links can be easily personalized for the company, providing complete transparency for any purchases and easy workflow integrations for approval processes.
