Alternatives Considered

SAP Ariba Procurement

SAP Ariba Platform is great for procurement, being a product based company we are doing a lot of sales in a single day and to manage all that, we needed SAP Business Technology Platform. Previously we had our own product, "Pivotal" which was good but doesn't have those many features, and it was a bit slower, so it become very difficult for us to accommodate all the work. Our Sales Operations team get into a deal with SAP Business Technology Platform to solve the problem, and we got SAP procurement.
