Zip provides a place for employees to initiate a purchase or vendor request. Each request is routed for approval across procurement, finance, IT, data security, legal, and other teams, and Zip integrates into ERP and P2P solutions to create a PR or draft PO. The vendor states Zip works with Canva, Checkr, Hopin, Zapier, CM Group, and other companies both public and private.
The system works well as an inter-company work-flow tool. Very helpful when and for invoice processing requires involvement across several different departments
Zip is a newer product in the P2P space, and as such there are still some areas for improvement. They don't have all the "bells and whistles" products and configurations that some of the other players in this space have, but the products they do offer are best in class. Zip is an ideal tool for tactical procurement.
Basware is fast and reliable. Very rare down time during the time we've been using it.
Great support team. Our needs were addressed timely and efficiently.
Basware provides us with great customer service. We have had many modifications to our specific needs and Basware worked well with us for our customizations.
Missing the ability to proxy as another user. Currently, if one approver did not set up their delegation, an admin or the approver of that step must reassign each of the approvals to another person.
Bulk upload options for admins to update queues and subqueues.
Missing ability to schedule reports or the option to share a saved view with another user. It would be easier if certain filtered views can be shared with others to avoid each user having to create their own views.
We will continue using product and continue renewing as it is widely used product and it has been well adapted by users in our organization. The product is expensive but we will use it. Hopefully the product bugs will be fixed in future and they will provide more HA architecture feather for Basware.
I have only used Basware Purchase to Pay in my organization, however it is such a good software that my company decided to keep using it for next years.
Truth be told, we haven’t seen any other similar products. The alternative was manually tracking in Google Sheets, ticketing systems, and in NetSuite. Coupa was probably the closest in terms of what we were looking for but they were not willing to fit it to our needs like Zip was able to.
Zip Intake-to-Procure has helped clean up forecasting for us - we've improved accuracy by over 30% since now we're forcing folks to make sure spend is captured accurately and checking submitted PO amounts against the bottoms up forecast
We've also been able to leverage the SLA insights provided by Zip Intake-to-Procure to increase operational efficiencies. We're identified orgs that are slowing down the overall approval process and putting more pressure with shorter SLA times.
