SAP Ariba offers the most out of the box features that fit our needs compared to others. No solution offers this much. while still lacking, it is the best option. We've reached that conclusion many times and its been verified by several different groups.
SAP Ariba faciltates the procurmemntprocess enabling businesses to source and purchase goods from suppliers through Purchase requisitions and integration with ERP systems. It automates the entire procurement process froy identifying suppliers to paying supplies and is very …
For PR and PO process, we do in SAP ECC and we want after completion of RFP request PR will be generate automatically. So we find a tool which is compatible with SAP ECC to automate PR activity. In Oracle Procurement tool, it is not possible. So we don't have another option …
Since we adopted S/4HANA it's a great match in interfaces and user experience + we're an implementation partner itself so the entire project was a bit of a learning ground for us as well
CMS system has less functionalities for the contract management and is not so flexible and user friendy. No SAP Solution, which is in contradiction of our company IT strategy. Full compliance with Internal company security requirements.
SAP procurement solutions provide tools, services, and expertise to reduce financial and operational disruptions, meet workforce and customer needs, and lower supplier risk and market uncertainty.

Webexpenses is easier to use and understand to me and my colleagues. you literally can just look at the page and you can see the hwole graph of everything and the pie chart that is displayed so that you dont have to figure it out yourself
I used an internal programme in CBRE Ireland and it was not user friendly and you'd have to input the same information over and over for every expense added.
The biggest difference between Webexpenses and Concur honestly lie in the simplicity of what is needed from the employee and their expenses. Concur asks for a lot of itemization sometimes and may even have to import other receipts and invoices that are spent by the employee and …
The ease of use of the platform has been the biggest benefit of this system. We didn't need to provide any structured training to our staff, we just sent out the link and people were able to intuitively use the platform. Other competitors were harder to navigate and to use.
I much prefer Web Expenses to Concur. Although one functionality that Concur had, a user could email their receipts from the registered user email to Concur then these receipts would be available for the user add to their expense claim.
SAP Ariba is pivotal for our organization's supply chain requirements. The purchasing department needs it for vendor purchase order issuance and vendor order management. We can check procurement history for the last purchased price, standard price, price breaks, lead time for products, vendor, and alternate vendor details.
Really suits me well for making mileage claims, the map works well and it has an accurate log of addresses. Very handy and easy to be able to add any necessary receipts. Could be a good idea to include live road closures? but I understand that's quite tricky to do. Really easy to be able to move routes when you have gone a different way than recommended.
Complete Procurement of Inventory step easy through GUI-Ariba integration once Purchase order is created and it is sent to the SAP Ariba Supplier Network. Vendor confirms the order and sends notification of Inbound Delivery to the warehouse through ASN and the Inbound process, Goods Receipt Process, Unloading, Put away process easy.
SAP Ariba integrates the different SAP Sourcing platforms, services and their tools in order to optimize operations, saves cost and meeting customer requirements through its easy to use tools. Such as integration with SAP S/4 HANA, SAP EWM using Idocs for End to End sourcing and Procurement coverage.
As a part of the SAP Direct Sourcing suite, it helps allow customer manage their direct materials in the single dashboard and helping customer to have view of the comprehensive info about BoM and the structure. Based on requirements, buyers can run materials and/or entire Bill of Materials. When these are sent from ERP to SAP Ariba, managers can manage them in the direct spend dashboard. Can search for desired items in the dashboard and view details of BoM or deeper view of information of the material. Buyers can run sourcing, run details for materials, create material quotes, and create pricing using book quotes.
Integration with other tools is not very good. The APIs provided are not scheduled within the Ariba process and must use a middleware to send information back and forth between tools
Customer support for configuration questions. The response time can be weeks or months waiting time and the response back is often unhelpful.
Flexibility with company entities. With a large company with so many entities it is hard to structure and customize your suppliers into many entities. You often have to duplicate.
When you click add receipts after putting the details of your expense, you get the impression that you have done something incorrect from the prompt that you receive
Two options for adding receipts can confuse people when training them on how to use
It depends if alternative systems for other functions (HR / Payroll) have expenses functionality included as a supplementary service. If they’re part of a total system then having a separate system for expenses when another system provides the functionality (even if mildly less efficient, etc) then it wouldn’t be viable
While its great at usability. I would love ut have it more simplified. I would like to advocate for some personas who are non tech savvy or who have less or no experience in procurement. I sometimes feel that the valley of user learning fir such personas is quite steep and it may take them long time of learning to get adept to the platform.
Based on what I have used it for, it was very easy to use and navigate. The approval process was already setup on the back end so there was no confusion on my end. Notifications were sent to my email based on status which made it helpful to understand where an expense was in the process.
Customer support has always been top notch. From small configuration changes to overall process changes, support has the teammates in place with excellent knowledge and is able to provide solutions based on business challenges quickly. Their customer support through their Account teams continues to be hands on and very responsive to needs in a timely fashion.
The support for the initial setup was great, but since then we have only had to contact support once when we had problems uploading credit card files. The help we received at this time was not good and we ended up trying various things until we resolved the problem ourselves. The online support tutorials are good, but searching for a specific issue is difficult.
It was difficult to train multiple people via video, as they learned at different speeds, and most of the user champions were not as capable with systems and finance processes as our dept.
It's important to note that user experiences may vary, and the perceived areas for improvement depend on the specific needs and expectations of each organization. Frequent updates and feedback from users often guide software developers in addressing these areas to enhance the overall user satisfaction with the platform

We saved nearly 10% of planned costs due to the large database of vendors we created within the company as a whole.
Saving in time due to shortening of procurement cycles. Procurement activities were never on the critical path and were accomplished with less Supply Chain resources than originally planned.
In the process we created a huge database of Vendors and Pricing which well be beneficial in our future projects.
It is an excellent tool and just what are business required and could afford.
