Budget tracking on expenditure by departments - Precoro assists with budget tracking on the total budget which is allocated to each department. If the budget has been exhausted an alert is made for exceptional approval to the budget.
Duplication of invoices. When a supplier bills us the same invoice twice, Precoro makes a notification that an invoice with the same number was already uploaded for payment.

If your business is focused on one specific product or small in scope, Tradogram should be able to suit your needs. If you require simplistic reporting without in depth project codes and details, it does provide basic functionality that is very well suited for small enterprise. Companies that do all of their purchasing with POs will find it to be useful. If you are able to operate without needing it to plug back into a comprehensive ERP system, it should be sufficient.

Cons
  • 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

  • Reporting is really rigid and not customizable (except at an additional fee)
  • The API is new and still requires significant work to connect back into our ERP
  • Non-PO invoicing is extremely basic and doesn't draw from existing features
  • Can take a lot of clicks to get through a task

Alternatives Considered
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 evaluated Procurify as part of our initial scope conversations. Ultimately, we felt that the price point was outside of what we could support and went with the lesser cost of Tradogram instead.

Return on Investment
  • Our problem before implementing Precoro was a lot of manual tasks, from managing catalogs to creating reports. Now all related processes are in one place, and it's faster to create a purchase order, track it, and get products in time. Also, the overall visibility increased. We can see all purchases and their impacts on our budget. Reports is the most customizable module, so we can get the data we need. Thanks to our CSM for fast onboarding and help!

  • The product was priced very well as we made the transition from a homegrown internal system.
  • The need to pay to customize the system to do what we need it to do has been cumbersome.
  • The API connection back to our ERP system has not been optimal and has required us to engage with outside parties to assure that it is working properly.
