The scan function needs some refinement.

It takes a little time to go back in history.

Very easy to approve PO request and update receipt of items.

Lo recomiendo bastante ya que es un software que es muy sencillo de usar por lo intuitivo de su interfaz, lo que lo hace una opción ideal pues su implementación es mucho mas practica y rápida.

Unas veces el software tiene ciertos problemas de rendimiento o errores al momento de usarlo pero no es nada grave y es poco frecuente.

not sure, but i would ike to be able to create budgets and related to schedules and or timelines.

I like how easy it is to use. It's also very efficient.

Inconvénients

Mobile app a bit glitchy and hard to see everything.

Avantages

It saves all items purchased so you can re-purchase them.

Inconvénients

The one issue of canceled PO's not showing up on our side or the vendor's side was fixed. So nothing else.

Avantages

Considering we were using a manual system previously, it is very efficient and user friendly.

Inconvénients

That since we took up the use of the system, we are not able to indicate the usage in the previous months without placing all the orders done previously. This would come in handy when tracking the budget.

Avantages

- Easy access and friendly to users.- Allows detailed inputs when preparing a Purchase order

Inconvénients

I would not be able to rate this as I believe that we have not utilize the software to it's potential to this point of time.

Avantages

Intuitive for procurement process flow
Ease of use for the Teammembers and Approvers
Support is always available using the instant messaging feature on the website

Inconvénients

The linking of departments, budgets and approvers is not intuitive and can cause a lot of re-work
Approval flow for a PO once automated, must go from the lowest approver and up
Approval structure is linked to a budget and not linked to the department

Avantages

Easy to use, and set up. It can be tailored to most industries and has a great user interface. You can make changes to the layout yourself or have Procurement Express help. They are very helpful. It is a realatiely affordable option that works well. I came across many other clunky software platforms that were not worth it, before picking Procurement Express.

Inconvénients

It could have more precise tools to track supplier performance by metrics. That is its biggest weak point. We must track supplier performance for our end users. Currently we do that outside of Procurement Express.

Avantages

Functionality: easy to use, well designed, thoughtful workflows, robust functionality without being burdensome. ProcurementExpress.com not only understands the ins and outs of POs, but they also have created an information architecture that covers every base. UI/UX: Intuitive, clean design, modern look and one of the best UI designs I've seen. Speed of implementation - I literally spent a week from finding ProcurementExpress.com online to issuing our first PO. Set up was a breeze, ProcurementExpress.com was willing to help but I preferred to just plow through myself. Nifty import and export features are handy for mass updates or uploads. Support:I work in the software industry and ProcurementExpress.com has the best support I've ever seen. Chat is almost always available, reps are knowledgeable and I have yet to not get a resolution on my first contact. They do weekly releases, so if you need an enhancement, they are very responsive and timely on getting them in. I recommended it to our accounting firm to share with their other small biz clients, it was exactly what I needed for my client. In a nutshell, best in class design and exceptionally good customer support. It is the awesome customer support that makes it a no brainer choice.

Inconvénients

Cons with the software are very few. I had a little trouble understanding how the Approval Limits worked, but that was probably my ignorance on the PO process. The ProcurementExpress.com rep called me during a chat question and clarified within 5 minutes. The user documentation is light, but because the support is so good - the don't need heavy how to documents or videos. I created my own training videos for my staff, it would have been cool if ProcurementExpress.com had a YouTube channel with training videos. Maybe that is to come...

Avantages

Easy to upload invoice, supports almost types of files, can download CSV file to analyse quickly, Stored data at one platform, can be accessible from anywhere, Good customer support.

Inconvénients

It doesn't give option to put tax amount manually.

Avantages

The software is so easy to use and to teach to others. It is incredibly intuitive.

Inconvénients

I really do not have any cons, but if I had to pick something, sometimes it takes a while for a new user/approver to show up.

Avantages

Procurement Express is an online platform to generate Purchase orders, Good Software to use,
1) Easy to use.
2) Accessible from anywhere
3) Storage of data

Inconvénients

Procurement Express is an online platform to generate Purchase orders.
Cons
1) cannot put Tax percentage manually

Avantages

Procurement Express is easy to learn and use.
You can easily keep track of company purchases.
The customer service team is fantastic if you ever have to contact to them.
They will solve your problem quickly and efficiently.

Inconvénients

Nothing so far and I do use this program every single day.
Every single function work as it should be

Avantages

We're cutting POs daily for multiple jobs and it can get overwhelming. This software cuts the work in half. It tracks all POs neatly and the search feature makes finding old Purchase Orders a breeze.

Inconvénients

There's really nothing that's bad about this software, but if I had to pick, I would choose the way you have to know the grand total of what the invoice is going to end up being. We rent equipment and we might have it quoted for 3 months, at $100 a month, bringing the total to $300. But if something comes up and we need to keep it for another month or two, that's $200 that's not being plugged in. It would be easier if there was an option the put the monthly invoice in there, and it keep reapplying itself until it's told otherwise.

Avantages

We have been using ProcurementExpress for 10 months now. We acomplished almost all the goals we wanted with this solution. I would say it is very flexible and can help both small and big companies because it is easily scalable, the structure of PO approval, budgets and budget structure can be very simple or complex depending od the needs.

Inconvénients

This is not a con, but only a suggestion, sometimes we miss certain features that we think are a must, but the the development team does not. On the other hand, some of our suggestions were immediately corrected or even added to the system.

Avantages

It was software that was actively used in the company I worked for. It can also make purchases between companies. It has a very useful and functional interface.

Inconvénients

Subscription system could be better. It is important for continuing to use this application.

Avantages

Electronic approval process. Simple for end users.

Inconvénients

Budget process is pretty useless for accounting. Budget doesn't have a date range so could be $ per week, month, year....
Employee access is determined by department but approval is by GL account. Employee has to choose a budget from ALL budgets in the ALL accessible departments, not just those they have approval rights to. Too much to look at. For example, IT only has approval on Computer Supplies in every department but has to see every budget in every department to choose a budget for a PO.

Avantages

Once you have set up all your suppliers/products etc, it is super easy to raise a purchase order which is allocated to a budget. The templates are editable so you can get your company branding on there. It is very easy to use, not over complicated. We needed a simple solution for our on-site employees, and it is working well!

Inconvénients

Could have better integrations with other accounts packages, to press you can export in Xero bur little else. I understand the guys at
ProcurementExpress.com are looking into this as a future development.

Avantages

It is very user friendly and intuitive. It also is well very well organised, allows for easy creation and submission of PO's and is overall a very good system. Additionally the support are very knowledgeable and helpful.

Inconvénients

It is a very good system so essentially nit picking but sometimes the excel function does not export the transactions for me. That is probably due to errors on my end though.

Avantages

The ease of use of this product makes it must for all Companies. It is a very easy way to keep up with your Purchase orders. The Accounting people love it also a quick way to balance open PO's.

Inconvénients

That it has load between each PO. It would be great that you could enter 4 or 5 Po's at a time.

Avantages

Ease of use, outstanding support (both setup and ongoing), great approval process, always looking to improvements and rolling out enhancements

Inconvénients

Yet to offer integration with full accounting systems but I am told this is not far off. This will take the app to the next level. Data exports are available.

Avantages

Everything is awesome! I love it!! So easy for everyone, even the technically challenged!!

Inconvénients

The only thing I can say wrong is that I wish I had more than 2 decimal places. But having much experience with program installations, if that's all I can say, that makes it a perfect program in my book!!

Avantages

ProcurementExpress.com is really easy to use, and not one of our people struggles with it. The best feature is that you can use it anywhere because it is web based, which suits us down to the ground as many of our team travel & work in remote locations. The customer support is excellent, so when we find we need a new feature the ProcurementExpress.com team usually sort us out very quickly.

Inconvénients

Now that we have been using it a few years the data base has grown quite large and so we would like the reporting features to be enhanced, with more filters prior to data dump rather than sorting the spreadsheets afterwards.

Avantages

It makes the whole PO process easier for all departments throughout my organization. I haven't had much time to scope out the bells and whistles yet. It was basically learned on the fly, so that should speak to your ease of use.

Inconvénients

If you could fix this one issue I have and I'm betting other do as well and if they read this will be like, "oh yeah, he's right". Where you are on the screen creating the PO, every time you hit the enter key it submits the PO. This happens most when you're entering in quantities or price. I think that it's habit for most people to hit the enter key after they've typed in the price expecting that it may just close the window or something, but instead it sends the PO whether you're finished or not. This alone accounts for 96% of all our canceled PO's. I find it especially obnoxious when our company has certain PO's setup for a manger approval. They get kinda pissy when they've just approved it and then 10 seconds later he comes the canceled PO email. Anyways, if that were fixed, I would be a happy camper. I'm also curious if it's just me being a weirdo.

Avantages

Well in a simple way of saying ti this program ROCKS. Use it daily to track my purchases with multiple vendors and locations that we buy products.

Inconvénients

Only con is the mobile app has to be downloaded with the classic version or its a little tricky to use.

Avantages

Ease of Setup
Excellent customer support
Easy to use - not a lot of training required.

Inconvénients

For our purposes - it does what we want. Perhaps more graphics on reports?

Avantages

It makes everything so organized and measurable. I absolutely LOVE Rubberstamp! I just trained another girl last week on how to use it.

Inconvénients

I wish that I could print out reports because I do a LOT of the entries, but I'm not the Administrator. Sometimes I like to report how much I've spent on Publix and/or BJ's Wholesale Club, but I have to bug the Administrator when I want to do that. I've been with you all awhile. Any way that you can enable me to do that?

Avantages

Software is easy to use and has many functions that make working smart!

Inconvénients

Sometimes the amount changes if you do not fill in the details in order
ie don't fill in the amount before reason for PO

Avantages

Helps us to stay in budget and manage our finances.

Inconvénients

I really don't have anything to say in this area. We are very please with ProcurementExpress.

Avantages

I like Procurement Express because it is express! I can enter a purchase request, have it approved within seconds via email, and then have the item ordered. This is one software that really "plows through" the bureaucracy and is transparent.

Inconvénients

I least like the fact that when I edit it, it re-sends the PO.

Avantages

- Works beautifully on my iPhone without having to download an app
- Does what it says on the tin and does it well
- Very well laid out, ie. intuitive to use
- Competitively priced

Inconvénients

- Could use a more reporting options (I contacted their support team and they assured me they will be rolling out more options very soon)

Avantages

We build and operate dredges. At one time we might have five or six jobs running and also project in our yard. ProcurementExpress allows us to track spending on each job and also each dredge.

Inconvénients

If I am part way through P.O. and have to do something else on computer I might lose original first page.

Avantages

This Software really helps in so many ways, You can send PO direct to Supplier's email, with Good notation (default or manual). Also It saves the Items code and Description for future orders, We can copy PO and repeat for Contract Orders which saves a lot of time.
Online Chat Support- It is great that Support team is always Active and replies instantly. They are expert and solves problems very quickly, Especially "our rep" - He is very helpful all the time and provides detailed information regarding any issue and resolves faster. Thanks .....

Inconvénients

Well, It sends out PO Copy to each approvers; My Suggestion is that if Purchasing Manager is approving then PO Copy should not go to other people who are related to those Department or Budget.

Avantages

Just haven't ran into many problems at all, pretty intuitive for sure. It took me one or two orders to get a good understanding of the package. Generally simple to use once accounts are setup, good cut and paste capability too from other packages.

Inconvénients

Could use more feedback on what is going on behind the scenes. This would give more confidence that everything is working. I still seem to be guessing sometimes if the software is completing the process. My job requires me to have confidence the orders complete and off to the vender and vender then get paid.

Avantages

I like the fact there is now a robust program where the various projects budgets can be loaded, downloaded into excel and analysed. Ability to have a snapshot view on the budget vs Spent to enable cash flow management.

Inconvénients

On inception of the project a budget is loaded. However there is not feature that shows the various changes to the budget when they occur to help in future audit of the changes and better budgeting in future.
I feel that the Purchase order function should have an invoice approval section which becomes automatically converted to paid.

Avantages

User friendly and there is always some brilliant expert online experts to help if you ever have a problem.

Avantages

Ease of use, set up of budget a must.
Reports at a touch of a button

Inconvénients

Adding the payments made against invoice. Does not allow you to edit the date.
Why no Pastel intergration?
