Software Version

SciQuest has enabled hundreds of people on our campus to shop more quickly. It has some very useful functions, such as collaborative shopping option - sharing favorites and sharing carts.

Overall Satisfaction

SciQuest is used by the whole organization. It addresses about 80% of every department's shopping needs.
  • Collaborative shopping tools - sharing shopping carts and sharing favorite folders
  • These are a huge asset to the academic environment whose staff and faculty want to work together on everything.
  • The ability to view some product availability
  • Images and simple search results layout is easy to read
  • We asked for collaborative shopping tools 2 years ago. Their response time was slow and they did not reach out directly to us and let us know that our needs would be addressed.
  • Fast ordering times
  • simple interface design
If I found myself in a position to support another large scale ordering system for a university I would want SciQuest.
If you are using Oracle or Legacy you should ask specific questions about integration.
