Precoro Erfahrungen

A simple and intuitive platform to streamline procurement, purchasing and order management

Vorteile:

Precoro allows us to simplify and streamline our ordering process, from the statement of requirement to PO validation flow, to vendor management, to invoicing and reconciliation. It is a 100% SaaS platform, so easy to access and no maintenance required.

Nachteile:

The invoicing piece could be easier to use. If a supplier generates part invoices for an order, it's still a bit awkward to manage if it has not been split properly when drafting the PO. Hopefully the new features such as Service PO and Blanket PO should resolve this.

Excellent Purchasing System for Senior Capstone Design Class

Kommentare: It has been great. The support for getting the software configured and working for UVM has been amazing.

Vorteile:

We were struggling to find a software program that was affordable to use in a project based engineering class. Precoro's price structure only charges on a Power User basis and not normal users, so this made it affordable. Precoro is web-based platform that allows students to use their university credentials to easily submit purchase orders for multiple parts from a variety of vendors with some oversight by administrators to approve and place the orders. It does this really well.

Nachteile:

The comment feature is great within the system, but you only get notified via email that you have a comment. It would be great to have a feature in Precoro that allows you to see comments that are addressed to you within the platform.

In Betracht gezogene Alternativen: Procurify

Warum Precoro gewählt wurde: We didn't use Adobe. We used a custom piece of software that was developed in house. It had numerous flaws that caused orders to be duplicated, made it hard to order multiple parts from a single vendor, keep track of budgets and receive parts.

Zuvor genutzte Software: Adobe Acrobat Reader

Gründe für den Wechsel zu Precoro: Procurify was too expensive. They wanted to charge on a per-user basis each month. This which was not affordable for the program, especially since the software remains unused for about 4 months of the year.

A user-friendly and analytically empowering solution

Kommentare: Precoro software is an exceptional procurement management solution that has greatly improved our organization's processes. With its user-friendly interface, comprehensive features, and powerful reporting capabilities, Precoro has streamlined our purchasing operations and provided valuable insights. The responsive customer support further enhances the overall experience. I highly recommend it.

Vorteile:

I was impressed with Precoro's user-friendly interface and powerful analytics and reporting capabilities. The interface is intuitive, making it easy to learn and navigate. The software's analytics and reporting features provide comprehensive insights, helping me make informed decisions. I particularly appreciated the option to export data in Excel format, enabling further analysis and customization.

Nachteile:

It is not intuitive enough for me how inventory management should work. Also, when manually entering a new item, the small window provided for name and description made it difficult to verify entered information. Additionally, I discovered that Precoro allowed the creation of duplicate SKU numbers, even when an existing SKU already existed. Despite these concerns, Precoro's user-friendly interface and powerful analytics remain valuable for procurement processes.

Exceeded all expectations, intuitive interface, flexibility, purchase order process has become more efficient than ever

Kommentare: Our experience with Precoro software has been nothing short of exceptional. Its smooth implementation, flexibility, intuitive interface, and operational efficiency have made a significant impact on our procurement process. I wholeheartedly recommend it to any organization looking to streamline their purchasing workflows.

Vorteile:

I recently had the pleasure of implementing Precoro for our new purchase order software, and I must say, it exceeded all expectations. From the initial setup to day-to-day operations, the transition was remarkably smooth, and every step was handled with utmost professionalism and expertise. The implementation process was a breeze. [sensitive content hidden] and the rest of Precoro team took the time to understand our unique business needs and tailored the software implementation to perfectly align with our goals. [sensitive content hidden] and all Precoro team was incredibly skilled and knowledgeable. We were kept informed at every stage of the project, and any questions or concerns we had were addressed promptly and comprehensively. One of the standout features of this software is its flexibility. It effortlessly adapts to our unique workflows and requirements, allowing us to customize fields, approvals, and notifications with ease. Navigating through the software feels like second nature. The user interface is clean, intuitive, and beautifully designed. Even team members who were initially apprehensive about learning a new system quickly embraced it, thanks to its user-friendly layout. With Precoro software in place, our procurement process has become more efficient than ever. From requisition to approval to invoicing, every step flows seamlessly, saving us valuable time and resources. Post-implementation support has also been outstanding. Precoro continues to offer prompt and effective assistance whenever we need it, demonstrating their commitment to customer satisfaction and long-term partnership.

Nachteile:

No Cons that I can think of. All issues that we had were promptly addressed.

Trying it a few days for free is always a pleasure.

Kommentare: Saves time and guarantees dependable and simplified performance. Precoro is good.

Vorteile:

I would like to extend my gratitude to the Developer for their assistance during my initial launching and integration stages. Having opted for the 14 days free trial, I had enough time to learn about the tool and how applicable it would be on my day to day work. I used that time to engage with the help desk who were very committed to assisting me learn more about the tool before I could purchase it. For a while now, Precoro has performed excellently well especially on matching invoices with orders and receipts. I can now assure anyone that Precoro is a secure and reliable software.

Nachteile:

None. The few minor challenges I faced during implementation were sorted out on the help desk. Everything has worked well ever since.

Increase staff productivity and reduce expenses

Kommentare: Precoro is the most straightforward piece of software we've ever used, and as a result, we've seen a dramatic rise in our daily output. As an added bonus, the Developer is also prepared to offer our company an enticing business package, so the whole cost is manageable.

Vorteile:

Our company has used Precoro as our procurement system to replace the previously manual processes involved in the purchasing process. When compared to manual tracking, the technology is far more efficient and helps us save time. It's simple to learn and inexpensive enough that even a modest business like ours can afford it.

Nachteile:

They may add some subheadings to the filter fields. I think it would be helpful if the PO itself could be seen as an image, rather than just a set of fields.

Amazing Streamlined Purchasing with Precoro

Kommentare: Overall, Precoro has been an excellent tool to streamline our purchasing process. It has saved us a lot of time and allowed us to focus on other important tasks.

Vorteile:

Precoro has made purchasing so much more efficient for our team! The user interface is intuitive and makes the entire process straightforward. We have also experienced great customer service when we have needed assistance.

Nachteile:

The only downside is that it takes a bit of time to set up the various settings and preferences that you have for your team.

Great Purchase Management System

Kommentare: Precoro has solved our purchase management issues flawlessly. I recommend this software to anyone in need of an affordable, user-friendly purchase management system.

Vorteile:

The UI is incredibly user-friendly and well thought out. It's easy to create new POs/invoices. The customer service has been top notch as well

Nachteile:

Filtering is a tad bit difficult. I wish there was a search bar to quickly find any PO/Invoice.

In Betracht gezogene Alternativen: Fishbowl und Katana Cloud Inventory

Warum Precoro gewählt wurde: SOS's software was better for inventory management, but the purchase management aspect was terrible. There was no ability to auto-calculate taxes, it was hard to use/learn, and we kept running into new issues.

Gründe für den Wechsel zu Precoro: affordability, customer service, and ease of use

Great overall product for Procurement

Vorteile:

captures all required needs in one program!

Nachteile:

there is currently no mobile app, which would be great for our maintenance team.

A fantastic, easy-to-use procurement software

Kommentare: No negatives just a very pleasant experience

Vorteile:

Precoro is very easy to use compared to other procurement/PO software in the market. The UI is clean. I love using the graphs from the 'Reports' to keep track of the spending for my project.

Nachteile:

Not really a con but with any other new software, there will be a slight leaning curve for first time users jumping into Precoro.

Fantastic software for core purchasing activities

Kommentare: When we started with Precoro we were formalizing our purchasing department. Working with Precoro allowed us to create processes and procedures, understand our expenses by department, and grade our vendors and their performance. Efficiency, organization, and cost savings increased tremendously. We all love Precoro!

Vorteile:

- incredibly easy to use and our teams adopted the processes without issue - the interface is pleasant and easy to read; it isn't difficult to navigate at all - the system itself runs smoothly and we never encountered any bugs or glitches - users are able to communicate across all transactions via @mentions (this is a feature we will miss a lot!) - reports are easy to use and customize - Precoro customer service is the best! Seriosuly, they are all so friendly, helpful and go out of their way to resolve issues and answer any questions - The Precoro team releases newsletters alerting users of updates and changes, and there are great notifications that pop up when you log into the system alerting you of updates with clear visuals and explanations

Nachteile:

There isn't much that we didn't like about Precoro : - it isn't possible to search by item for core information. For example, many of our teams want to search by item to see if it is WIP with a vendor. You can only do this by exporting a report

An ideal tool for automating material approval and purchasing procedures

Kommentare: Using Precoro helped us to organize and manage the process of approving materials, preparing requisitions, and tracking approvals through all stages, and the automation available in Precoro helped us to complete all these jobs as well as obtain comprehensive records and reports with minimal effort.

Vorteile:

It's great how Precoro tools enable us to track purchases in full detail, from the approval stage of materials to the delivery of materials to the site. Much appreciated Precoro's records include all submission and approval dates as well as notes taken by all parties. It is easy to send requests to get quotes and also send them to the responsible members to choose the appropriate ones. After obtaining approval, we can send a purchase request, update the status, and confirm the date of arrival of the materials on the site. It is also good that Precoro allows tracking of vendor payments so that we can monitor all related operations in the smallest detail.

Nachteile:

Precoro is a great tool, almost flawless, and very easy to use. The support team is great, and thanks for being so responsive and able to guide us properly.

Precoro is just what Orkidstudio Ltd needed!

Kommentare: Precoro has been very helpful with budget tracking; we are able to tell at any one time the status of any one budget thus make solid and on time decisions. Supplier management has also been a plus, its possible on a click of a button to tell the status of supplier accounts, even more helpful with credit accounts - reporting on aged creditors is more accurate and cash-flow projections easier to project. The 3 way document match of the PO, Goods Received Note and the Supplier Invoice has also reduced errors at the Accounts Payable desk. Paper-printing has been reduced by a huge margin, Approvals done not only promptly but accurately. It is definite we are a more efficient Supply Chain team since we logged onto Precoro! Thankyou!

Vorteile:

Precoro offers a start to end procurement solution - its a software that manages our inventory catalogue, through which user departments would log in their purchase requests, prompt approvals online both at Purchase request and Purchase Order level, monitor budgets, and monitor receipt of goods by user departments and invoices for suppliers by the Accounts Payable department. It has a supplier management module which has proved helpful most especially with management of supplier credit accounts.

Nachteile:

We are yet to figure out the integration of the software with Quickbooks online to ensure a seamless functionality of the software across the board for the Procurement and Finance teams.

Great software to streamline procurement process!

Kommentare: The Precoro team was very helpful and responsive to my questions, requests, and concerns during implementation

Vorteile:

Ease of use and implementation, the visibility it creates within the procurement process, and the overall functionality

Nachteile:

Lacking additional inventory features that are necessary for our business. Also, it would be nice if it could marry up with our accounting software.

In Betracht gezogene Alternativen: Sortly und Procurify

Warum Precoro gewählt wurde: Lacking procurement process

Zuvor genutzte Software: Sortly

Gründe für den Wechsel zu Precoro: Value

My recommendation for any business

Kommentare: The whole process was managed through excel. We had 300-500 PO/ month and 3 procurement managers. The main problem was that it was very difficult to track the process in excel and communicate with the requesters (give an update on the status of their request) and the office manager (the person who receives the goods). Precoro - is the solution to problems we had. We forgot about excel and the lack of time for our procurement managers. That’s much better to optimize the process through this software than hire more employees.

Vorteile:

We like automatically updating statutes and simplifying communication between requesters and the office manager. I noticed reducing the processing time for the request. It was about 2-3 days, now - usually not more than 20 minutes. Their customer support team is brilliant! [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] closely goes through all questions we have and always listens to our needs.

Nachteile:

Within the company, PR as a document is essential. We print them, sign them, seal them, keep them. It is necessary for us to have a logo on the PR.

Great software - exceptional support

Kommentare: Great software - even better team behind the software! I wish precoro would offer more products!

Vorteile:

It is very easy to use and has great integrations to subsequent software solutions. The customer support is exceptional. Olena and Andrew are always available if you have a problem and always help you find a solution. If we miss a feature it is often implemented in the next release. You can't find that anywhere else!

Nachteile:

Personally I like desktop applications for mass data entry - that means working with high amount of line items reduces efficiency. Workaround via upload is available though.

Jan Ella Gonzales Precoro Review

Vorteile:

It is a very user-friendly system and the support team is very responsive.

Nachteile:

All features are accessed online which is a disadvantage on our part which has a poor geographical set-up for the internet access.

Nice Program to use

Kommentare: So far, we are pleased with the program. We are glad that it help improve our work efficiency.

Vorteile:

Precoro is easy to start with good level of control program to use. Our company use it to manage our purchasing. It ease the process, also reduce the time of communication between team members as everyone can log in to see the current status of our order. We also like it that be able to send PO to our suppliers direct from the system. It saved a lot of time for our order desk.

Nachteile:

If some of the pop-up windows can be reduced, that would be better. We found that extra steps to get to finish up an order can be removed.

Paper to Digital

Kommentare: Great, now that I have used it more. Really helps finding out what is going on.

Vorteile:

Previously our system was on paper. Finding out the status of the parts order was a chore. working with volunteers that are not here everyday, it was difficult to do a paper trail of what was done.

Nachteile:

Learning where to find the information you need. Some of our volunteers are older and not as computer savvy. That is our challenge now.

A fan of precoro

Kommentare: Overall, it saves a lot of time, can be used on all levels and we love it.

Vorteile:

I love having an overview of all open invoices. In addition, I am responsible for the procurement of many things, this is completely up to the teams and no longer has to go over my desk. In general, we could completely say goodbye to our Excel lists and have a daily overview. This is especially valuable for us as a growing company.

Nachteile:

I didn't find the permissions for each person when setting up so easy to navigate. Here one could remedy with detailed explanations in a small info field.

Best Procurement software for your organization

Vorteile:

It is easy to use Precoro & all required information is present here. You can download files & then review when needed. Search button is very helpful.

Nachteile:

It would be good if in the Purchase Order screen there would also be some description of the POs, not just the status, supplier, location and etc.

Precoro customer survey experience

Kommentare: Has been good. Easy to use and support is very excellent when needed.

Vorteile:

Easy to useBuilding of own reportEliminates paper work

Nachteile:

Hanging effects in the evening periodLoading of huge documents might freeze the whole site and one has to refresh the page

PO and Invoice Management made easy

Kommentare: We are involved in a Federal grant so we need good documentation of purchases. Precoro provides that in an easy to use package. We can create POs and invoices and store all the paperwork in one spot. No more paper to store in file folders.

Vorteile:

User Interface is easy to use Integrates with Google Authenticator for total security Workflow is simple to set up and provides easy notifications Dashboard is simple and provides info in an easy to understand format

Nachteile:

The only issue I have had is creating open POs. Our CSM walked me through the process so the issue is resolved.

All my warehouse purchasing needs in one place!

Vorteile:

I love that I can quickly place a purchase requisition where my boss can review, approve and the purchasing department can get an order processed right away! It is seamless! I also enjoy having a place to store all inventory of the warehouse goods.

Nachteile:

It has not been a completely user-friendly experience. Luckily with the help of [SENSITIVE CONTENT] and our purchasing team, we have gotten a better grasp of the platform.

My opinion about Precoro

Vorteile:

We were looking for help to control the budget, manage all the requests in one minute and integrate with the QBO. All budget requests come from different tools — email, slack, 1-to-1, calls, verbally, etc., and it wasn't easy to track what's the status of the purchase, and there wasn’t visibility on budget spending. Precoro is an excellent tool for our needs, as there are: automatic Purchase Orders creation and sending them to suppliers, tracking the status of PO, and integration with Quickbooks - everything as we wanted. I like that Precoro has more than 150 different data points, which crafted in custom reports, custom export documents. That helps our financial team analyze our spending better and more effectively.

Nachteile:

1. Project close and the vendor cannot get access after the due date passes 2. Can not edit due date once the RFP is sent out
