Precoro

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

Pros:

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.

Cons:

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

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

Pros:

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.

Cons:

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.

Alternatives Considered: Procurify

Reasons for Choosing Precoro: 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.

Switched From: Adobe Acrobat Reader

Reasons for Switching to 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.

Friendly user friendly and professional software (Precoro from Poland)

Comments: Good, Excellent highly recommended software

Pros:

The best part was the customer service. People from Precoro were too professional and equally patient in answering to all our minor to major questions, even if we kept asking the same question again and again for perfection, they kept smiling all the way through until our whole team learnt Precoro by 100%.

Cons:

In certain areas, we cannot customize few things as per our company standards like putting our electronic signatures (similar to DocuSign), there were many unused or not needed fields as per middle eastern pattern.

Great intregation

Comments: Overall, it has been a successful experience, and the support team has been very very helpful with any questions my team might have.

Pros:

I like how all the features bleed into one another and the system is overall very easy to learn how to functions and operate.

Cons:

I would say there are minor things like any other software that have come up, one example being able to look up orders by either material or job names.

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

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

Pros:

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.

Cons:

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

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

Comments: 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.

Pros:

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.

Cons:

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

Excellent Platform for Non-profits

Pros:

As a non-profit, we needed something functional, user friendly and cost effective. Precoro has changed the way we operate. We have a very complex multi-company set-up and Precoro has helped us to better organize and manage the purchase order process and tracking approvals. I would highly recommend to any non-profit. The customer service has also been beyond amazing.

Cons:

Not so much of a con but more of a wish list item. Because we do have a complex set-up, I would like to see a multi-level workflow. Precoro has been great at listening to my suggestions over the years and we have worked closely together. Other than that, I have nothing bad to say.

Excellent platform to approve and process purchase orders!

Comments: Love, love, love Precoro! It has exponentially improved our purchasing process and the support is beyond excellent!

Pros:

Precoro has been a huge improvement for our organization! It was easy to customize to fit our needs and has been a game changer for our approval and purchasing process. The support folks at Precoro are so responsive and super helpful, they are dedicated and genuinely care about our success in using the product.

Cons:

If I have to pick something I like least, which I'm having a tough time coming up with, I would say maybe an improvement to the search function.

Think of Precoro as a saviour. It enhances protocol and transparency in business.

Comments: Precoro is an adorable tool with excellent performance. The dashboard is fully customizable and automation is practical and relatable.

Pros:

Precoro has its ways to enhance clarity in whatever field it is applied in. I started using Precoro in my business as a beginner to control budgeting and expenses tracking. It worked so well that when I got a job, I could not hesitate to apply it in my new position to make my work easier and professional. It has worked well and I feel the change. It is basically easy to use and implementation is not an issue at all. The customer service is excellent too.

Cons:

Great tool with no dislikes. Precoro is the best option for me.

A fantastic, easy-to-use procurement software

Comments: No negatives just a very pleasant experience

Pros:

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.

Cons:

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

Increase staff productivity and reduce expenses

Comments: 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.

Pros:

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.

Cons:

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.

Review

Comments: Overall, it completely meets our basic need for PO creation, approval workflow and integration to QBO! It totally speeds up and simplifies our procurement/inventory management. It would be better if several functions mentioned in 2nd page can be achieved. We would like to recommend Precoro to our business partners.

Pros:

Integration, approval workflow combining budgeting.

Cons:

Please see comment in 2nd page for inventory management section.

Alternatives Considered: Tradogram and Procurify

Reasons for Switching to Precoro: Precoro's workflows are easier to design/maintain. The most important thing for small and mid size business, it is cost-saving.

Precoro Makes Purchasing Easy

Comments: In the short time we have been using Precoro, we have been quite satisfied. Going from a manual process to an online, streamlined process with Precoro has been quick and smooth. The Note and Link options within Precoro have been invaluable in communicating internally so that everyone has full disclosure and gets what they need in a timely fashion.

Pros:

The software is very user friendly by providing at-a-glance statistics, a dashboard to reach the different modules without hassle, and makes it easy for even the most non tech savvy person to understand. We so appreciate the option to make recurring purchase orders in Precoro to save the Purchasing team valuable time and the ease of the RFP process. So far our support staff and clinical team has adapted quite nicely to Precoro with no major issues and are pleased to be able to track the status of their requests without contacting the Purchasing team and taking them off task to find and research orders.

Cons:

The least favorite feature for our Purchasing team is the inability to print a range of purchase orders simultaneously. That option would save extra time, but the speed of downloading the PDF files is quicker than our last platform.

Excellent customer service

Comments: Excellent and I would highly recommend this software.

Pros:

The best thing about Precoro is their personalized relationship with their customers, their rapid responses to questions and follow up on things that can be done better. They are very very helpful to us. Customer service and help desk is excellent. Very knowledgeable staff and excellent training for implementation.

Cons:

Expense does not transfer to QB online yet. They are working on this. Budgets are just not the best for us.Reporting is lacking even though they provide every combination of capturing your data and exporting this to excel. It would be ideal if some basic executive style reports were just available for printing by just changing dates, etc.

the most valuable procurement software

Pros:

Comprehensive procurement features: This software provides a wide range of procurement features that cover the entire procurement process, from requisition to purchase order creation, supplier management, and invoice processing. Precoro's feature set allows you to streamline and automate your procurement workflow, saving time and reducing errors.

Cons:

Implementing new software requires a learning curve for users, which might take time and effort. Employees may need training to understand how to use the software effectively and adapt to new workflows.

One of the good application for small scale business

Comments: Precoro is great for a small scale business to track of every order by supplier, P.O. they are also integrated with Quickbooks but have some bus issues sometimes like missing of VAT when migrated to Quickbooks. They also provide a variety of reports for month end purposes. Plus, we can design a manual report based on one's needs.

Pros:

Easy and straight forward application settings

Cons:

Few bugs relating to invoice posting, where VAT missed when migrated to Quickbooks

Sometimes the system is slow. Over all I'm very happy with the system.

4M healthcare

Comments: I use it to order our supplies and check off my invoices.

Pros:

It's easy to use very convenient easy to track orders with it.

Cons:

It's kinda difficult to get to the invoice to check that it has been received the little fox guy is annoying. lol

Great Software!

Comments: This tool is been helping us a lot, getting our AP more organized, running reports as needed, and also you can customize pretty much everything.

Pros:

It's easy to use and very complete software, our account executive has been awesome and answered all our questions and concerns.

Cons:

Could take time to set it up with specifics accounting software

The decent service

Pros:

Employees can submit their purchase requests through their laptop or mobile phone. For approvers it’s also very easy. Whenever there’s a request, they get an email instantly and they can approve the request on their phone. Reports help us exactly ensure what was ordered by someone with all relevant details. The Custom success team cares. They’re helpful and informative! I can confidently say it’s a really good service.

Cons:

It isn't possible to add comments in the reports section. And there's no mobile app, but as I know, Precoro is going to develop it in 2022

Genuine review precoro

Comments: Overall experience of precoro is fine, will recommend to the the other users also

Pros:

I like most the budget management and reporting feature of order , without missing the order details and make I can make the focus on work.

Cons:

Least I like the integration feature , something automatically entry make cause the hectic situation , some work are good to done manually

Fantastic software that adapts to your organization's current/ future needs.

Comments: Precoro has delivered on so many of our requirements and continues to adapt to our needs. Precoro has allowed us to implement our paper-based processes to a digital platform and provided us with additional functionality that has been of great use to our department. I would recommend this application to any growing or established organisation.

Pros:

The thing I enjoy most about the software and Precoro as a whole. Is how much the software adapts to the growing needs of our organization. Allowing us to manage the PO and PR approval process digitally, monitor budgets on a digital platform. Precoro has provided greater visibility of our spending across projects, suppliers, and locations. It has increased our Purchase order process dramatically and provided user-friendly reporting functionality.

Cons:

Initially, the speed at which the software could adapt to our needs. At present, this has improved over the years. It's great to work with an organization that listens to your needs and tries to accommodate them where possible. But there are still features that could be improved .e.g. customization of the PO layout, customization of text sent out with purchase orders, and allocating mandatory/non-mandatory budgets.

Great experience with the software

Pros:

I work in a global software company and we work with more than 70 suppliers. It became necessary to buy good software for the procurement process. There were a lot of different companies on the trial, and the last one was the Precoro, which was chosen as a result. There wasn’t necessarily onboarding, we sut everything up and everyone understands how to use it. During this trial, my team simulated the process with real data for a month. As a result, we created 300+ ROs and invoices. We have been using it for more than a month now, everyone is satisfied, the process is set up, no complaints. Now, the approval process is by phone/computer and there is no need to come for signatures. It is convenient to keep all suppliers in 1 system and send them POs so fast as never before!

Cons:

It’s not con, but it would be better to see the budget total in the invoice custom report.

Individual approach to each customer

Pros:

Problem #1 solved by Precoro is the difficulty of tracking the budget in real-time. With Precoro, it became possible to make it work well. Problem #2 - manual entering of information in Quickbooks. This accounting system is well, but manual entry took time. Integration was a perfect decision for us. Problem #3 - difficult to track the status of the approval. Automatic changing of status after opening mail and clicking one approval button in Precoro is perfect for us. And Precoro’s Customer Success Team is excellent. I’m not sure that big companies provide the type of individual support that Precoro does. For these reasons and many more, I suggest Precoro over and against any larger SAAS company.

Cons:

In the PO report, there are fields in which it is difficult to orient what it concerns in general info. But it's a minor con. We're satisfied with all the functionality.
