La création des grilles tarifaires demande un peu de temps lors des premiers appels d'offres mais après une ou deux fois, le système est très facile d'utilisation.

Sans objet.
Nous avons constaté qu'il était un très bon outil.

Avantages

My first E sourcing project as a consultant was for a firm that used one of the leading ERP sourcing solutions. This solution was complicated due to the endless features for which purpose we needed external consultants who were proficient with the system. As I saw that e-procurement software drives efficiency, one of my first thoughts was whether this could not be done any simpler.
So I conducted a Market survey and I encountered Marketdojo. I was stunned by the user friendliness of their application that could be tested in their sandbox. Conclusion I did not need any additional consultants to drive an E sourcing event.

Inconvénients

There are really no cons. The real cons are the people who do not understand that SAAS helps them immediately to establish savings in their procurement process, without really worrying about whether the software is a fit within the company. It is a highly secured SAAS solution, that does not pose any threat to company' s resources and there is absolutely no customer lock-in.

Avantages

Market Dojo provides a pay per use e-sourcing tool. As such they are offering a niche solution, which has potential to appeal to a wide variety of buyers, even if they already have a procurement suite in place.

I was after a tool which I could deploy rapidly, avoid systems integration altogether and minimize the time required for training. Market Dojo fulfilled all these criteria.
1) The negotiation process was pleasant, accommodating, with fast turn-around times, win-win orientated and provided a basis which allow me to recover the cost in weeks.
2) The tool was easily deployed, partially supported by the fact that it was cloud-based. E from the customer services team did an outstanding team training my team, and connecting it to our existing tools from Per Angusta.
3) Market Dojo was always there to answer questions and was very supportive in the process. We overstretched the used versus what we had agreed, however, Market Dojo has the success of its customers in mind, and does not fuzz about the boundaries too much.

Inconvénients

Overall, deploying Market Dojo at IWG, where previously no e-sourcing tool was in place, was a great success. I have nothing to complain about.
One detailed piece of functionality, which I would wish Market Dojo to focus on, is the ability to export eRFP results with less need to format the tabular data. Market Dojo is aware of this, working on it, and I look forward to the results.

Avantages

Market DoJo offered Sopra Steria a focussed, low entry cost, rapidly deployable cloud solution to the problem, then not available from any other supplier, of digitising the continual complexity of supplier on boarding without too much frustration and cost to a new supplier. Market DoJo enthusiastically supported Sopra Steria with innovative ideas to successfully secure an internal business and investment to save time, eliminate use of paper, centrally record and manage supplier responses and significantly reduce the need for the manual coordination of emails, Word files, Excel files and signed documents through the post. We are now taking advantage of the data collected to approach existing suppliers to gain formal agreement to GDPR and our Sustainable procurement principles.

Inconvénients

Having worked with Market DoJo to create very useful and simple solutions there is a growing need to able to extract data easily to create reports. Currently the reporting aspect of Market DoJo could be improve, possibly using new BI tools enabling us to easily extract to combine and compare data.

Avantages

Market Dojo lead the market in on demand esourcing, and it is those design principles that need to be promoted also to larger scale organisations. Ultimately, if you want higher levels of supplier and buyer engagement with technology adopt a simple user interface that also has all the capability you need to conduct quick quote, eRFx and Eauction.

Inconvénients

We are using the tool in a number of languages and locations around the world. I do not have any real gripes with the performance of the tool or service team. I may suggest an even more dynamic licence based contract model, making licence swapping even more flexible would be a bonus

Pourquoi passer à Market Dojo

Avantages

Responsive after care - tickets are answered quickly and effectively
Relatively easy to set up, Can be tailored to your specifications and administered locally which means as you mature in your process it can be amended.

Inconvénients

Can be challenging for new users to navigate about - not always intuitive but once trained OK.
Not aware of some features that have latterly come to my attention as useful .

Avantages

Intuitive and user-friendly to use. Skillful customer support is always ready to help. The biggest benefit is definitely the value Market Dojo delivers effectivity to our Procurement team and saves a ton of money for the organisation.

Inconvénients

We haven't identified any cons. Some training is needed before being able to utilize the features comprehensively.

Avantages

the Support that we received from the team.

Inconvénients

we were unable to run different lots in timed succession.

Avantages

Step by step creation of events and forms makes it straight forward to use from the first time. But the live help function enables any questions to be rapidly dealt with. The product has great functionality and ability to set up conditional answers. The ability to clone events saves huge amounts of time. Onboarding suppliers is quick.
The look is great and clients really like it. It helps to the credibility of my consultancy business to have such a great tool at our disposal and available to leave with a client for them to continue to use. pricing is competitive and represents excellent value compared to comparative systems available.

Inconvénients

It can be 'over engineered' for the simplest of RFQ activities, however the cloning facility means once a simple RFQ type has been created it can be replicated quickly.
I'd like to see the types and format of the auctions expanded a little more but the main types of auction and the options cater for all but the most complex negotiations

Avantages

I have used the MarketDojo platform on several occasions now to run sourcing events and eAuctions. It is very easy to use, has a wide variety of features and is very cost effective.

Inconvénients

I genuinely cant fault this based on my usage of the system.

Avantages

Easy to build RFQ's / RFP's. Most important of all is the ability to evaluate multiple supplier pricing responses without having to spend weeks re-formatting the excel spreadsheets they have sent back - huge time saver. Also using the MarketDojo esourcing tool drives far more competition (and therefore better pricing and savings from competing suppliers) - the psychological element of competition this plays on with suppliers should not be underestimated as it's extremely powerful.

Inconvénients

It would be great if there could be an integration with public sector tender portals such as Find a Tender, Tenders Direct, Due North etc as not having this integration can prevent certain clients taking the product forward.

Avantages

Ease of use, intuitive, good technical support

Inconvénients

more complex and personalised features adapted to the business case

Avantages

MarketDojo is simple to use and covers all the common use cases for strategic sourcing projects and events. Setting up auctions and RFx are very straight forward and easy on the suppliers.

Inconvénients

No advanced optimization capabilities are available for scenario based analysis, but exporting to Excel can generally overcome that.

Avantages

Market Dojo was very quick , intuitive, and user friendly to deploy in a four-month sourcing project for one of our clients.

Inconvénients

There is more functionality than is described in the videos and help sections. some of the functionality around lotting the products could have been better explained up front but with practise, the tool becomes very quick to use.

Avantages

Saves massive amount of time in comparing quotes, offers and contracts; Very good source for documentation of tendering process; Helps ensure compliance; very good technical support & great support through customer success manager; re-use of previous tenders and templates

Inconvénients

Not always intuitive and requires help and support when initially used; Scoring functionality

Avantages

It drives a good outcome from the market facing activity with lower effort from the procurement team than a traditional tender process. In particular, less rounds required to get to the final outcome

Inconvénients

It does not offer enough features to efficiently deal with high volume of items and flexible needs (e.g. alternative brands for some lots, specific brand for others)

Avantages

Market Dojo will listen to the improvements that we have suggested and these have been implemented, not afraid to tweak/amend system.
Excellent customer support to use the system.

Inconvénients

Once the company registers/onboards the notifications then keep issuing out and you can't turn off so they issue indefinitely.
System to be more user friendly - takes a while to get used to.

Avantages

Very simple to use and to get up and running straight away. No need for expensive integrations so can be used for some quick-wins to bring wider stakeholder team on side.

Inconvénients

No real issues. This is not an ERP solution so not necessarily a product for complex spend analytics.

Avantages

Very easy to use and intuitive, user friendly, really effective. The sandpit concept is brilliant for trying things out in a safe environment. It is possible to design bespoke events which are geared to the outcomes you need. It is also very easy for suppliers to use. You can white label the product too to make it look in line with your corporate branding.

Inconvénients

I cannot think of any functions that I am unhappy with

Avantages

The weighted survey posibility, to tender with a RFQ that I could change into a dynamic E-auction with advanced Lots.

Inconvénients

The invitation of event's always require a login for the end-user, and that's sometimes difficult to get them attending the event.

I'll hope to see some changes in this in the future, so participants can attned an event without having to login.

Avantages

It was relatively easy to set up a tender, and then to modify or change it was again, simple and easy. The best bit is that it updates instantly, you don't have to wait.
I like the message function, when you can send to one participant or all of them or just choose who it goes to.
In regards pricing, you can put your target price in and the system automatically works out who is closet, who is furthest away, what percentage is amounts to etc.

Inconvénients

The messaging page is a bit complicated to get your head round, messages are not really separated, they appear as one long trail.

Avantages

The products are designed in such a way that they are very easy to set up and use. We have successfully used the product with both SMEs and big multinational companies

Inconvénients

I do not have any specific negative feedback.
