SAP Ariba Procurement Reviews

The primary use case of Salesforce is in the B2B space. I use it to capture, analyze, summarize, and record customer database and information. It is the de facto standard in the industry for such purposes.

Salesforce provides me with the ability to create reports based on various parameters. Its dashboard feature allows me to have a bird's eye view of my organization's performance, meticulously displaying region-wise, department-wise, and country-wise data. 

Additionally, Salesforce's integration with other software solutions enhances my productivity, making it a comprehensive ERP solution. It offers a highly intuitive interface that allows me to generate reports without technical competency and integrates well with other solutions, enhancing productivity.

We are using this solution in the very basic form. I just use it for the approval process.

We use basic features like getting quotes. 

The product has different modules, like sourcing and contract management. The use case depends on the client's requirements.

Ariba allows us to manage our suppliers seamlessly. It allows us to manage our relationship with the suppliers, the contracts, and invoices. It makes life easier for our organisation. It is a good application to use.

My clients use the solution for indirect procurement. The solution is deployed in the SAP cloud environment.

I like the guided buying features.

We use the solution to procure and collect clients' information in our data warehouse.

The solution's most useful feature is the procurement tool. It collects all the data in one place.

I work in the digital strategy field for a financial services client. I mainly use Ariba to collect information and manage bills and other contractual information about vendors and contractors who work with me.

The best features are the ease of use and the workflow management that allows me to understand every step in the approval process so that I can forecast the time through my request and its approval.

The Precision Time Protocol (PTP).

We made custom enhancements to suite our business process.

The PunchOut functionality is fantastic as it makes shopping very easy. This has saved us a lot of time in that employees can look directly on a vendor's website, see what's available, and order it.

Rather than having to run orders through the business office and have them placed by someone else, users can do their own shopping and submit their own carts. This has reduced a lot of data entry and improved efficiency, as we do not need to communicate lack of availability or other issues with an initial order request.
