Overall Satisfaction with SAP Ariba Procurement

We use it for all our Procurement Processes right from when an internal purchase request is raised upto the final payment to the vendor.
All communications are made within SAP Ariba Procurement and also the tracking and expediting is done through this software.
Further, Cost control and tracking is easier and systematic.
The amount of time and resources saved is huge. Cycle times are reduced and th ewhole history of a procurement is available at press of a button.
I can easily say SAP Ariba Procurement has led to saving in Time and Cost.
  • Entire Purchase Process is managed at a single location.
  • Direct B2B connections and vendor base buildup is possible.
  • Cost Monitoring and control in a logical, scientific way.
  • Creates a huge database of procurement across the company which can be used for future procurement to achieve getting the best price through deft negotiations based on a database.
  • Sometimes the system is slow. Cant say whether due to software or the system we use.
  • Dashboards could be improved and made more easily customisable.
  • Direct linking of Project Procurement Schedule with the Procurement Cycle of SAP Ariba will be a big step forward.
  • One stop Solution to Complete Procurement Cycle.
  • Tracking Actual Costs with planned Costs
  • Saving in time and costs.
  • Creation of a wide database of Vendors and Prices
  • 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.
It has no Comparison in the market. No other software is even close.
Best part is, once our supply chain executives get using it, they simply fall in love with it. The number of personnel in the drepartment is drastically reduced.
Very little paperwork is now done reducing expensive storage space. The savings are immense.
  • Price
  • Product Features
  • Product Usability
  • Product Reputation
  • Prior Experience with the Product
Product features are configured by professional who have worked in the Procurement fiels and know the pains of Procurement professionals. Loose ends are tied up. It is flexible and customisable.
None of them offered a complete solution.
