Austin company Sourceday offers their procurement platform emphasizing automation and streamlining of purchasing processes in a unified environment, minimizing errors.
Precoro is great if you need to keep your organization aware of where in the purchasing process an order is, and if you need a place to communicate about orders & keep a record of those communications. It does not work too well for a variety of purchasing requests - the process lacks complexity.
As a buyer in a manufacturing environment, it is possible to have a large amount of POs out to vendors all over the world. Using SourceDay the buyer is not following up on late POs or worrying about reviewing every confirmation email, SourceDay has all that managed for me. This software puts all the buyer's follow up actions in one folder and it takes minutes to complete the review. SourceDay isn't the best suited for an organization that writes one to two POs a month unless the organization plans to use all the modules. PO to Payment.
SourceDay takes user suggestions and if they meet the greater good it will be implemented into the system. There was specific data a buyer needed to seem in the dashboard and SourceDay was able to create it.
SourceDay provides superior customer service. The outboarding team are able to bring Suppliers and Buyers into the system within a day. This team will go the extra mile to set up one on one training if requested.
The "bundles" in Precoro are not actually bundles. I would like to connect 2 of our catalog items together so that when 1 is selected for purchasing, the other item is required
Sometimes the comments wont properly tag a person that we're trying to tag
More options to customize the approval workflow based on location
Ability to edit where we're buying an item from without having to deny the request
The PO exceptions are a feature that my team isn't able to use currently because it isn't pulling back all the necessary information. Our team hasn't submitted a formal request to update to add this information as of yet.
Our organization has multiple manufacturing locations that purchase from suppliers that have store locations adjacent to the plants. At this time, SourceDay isn't able to distinguish which location the PO is going to. It is in their build plan and hopefully we will see the role out in 2021.
At first glance it seemed to be rather difficult in use, but actually it turned out to be much easier [than] we thought. Thanks to the Precoro team we could go through the procurement workflow. Now with [the] right, user-friendly software partner, we are absolutely ready to meet all [our] company's needs.
Precoro is a company, which makes great products for businesses. What is more, it is a team of professionals, who are always keep[ing] in touch with you. Thanks [to] Precoro, we easily go through procurement workflow and manage all of our POs in a couple of minutes. We had a great experience with the Precoro team which helped us with installation of the software.
Precoro is unique because it can be customizable from start to finish without needing to build in API. It is extremely easy to use and understand, so we did not need to give our employees extensive training as we did with Tradogram. Precoro also allowed us to communicate about orders right within the order itself, where the other software did not.
We can track each purchase order, who created it, and why. They are no longer lost, and we can always see the history. The dashboard allows us to monitor information about all essential documents and at what stage they are now and keep track of which invoices have not yet been paid or partially paid.
By setting up budgets for each department, we can effectively plan the allocation and prevent overspending.
The system is very flexible and convenient. I can't imagine my work without it.
