Precoro reviews

We got everything we needed and even more

Pluspunten:

We had a system for tracking direct purchasing, but we faced increased demand for purchasing supporting materials - packaging, warehouse goods, shopping goods, ripping, and no system for these needs. There were difficulties with tracking the number of goods in the warehouse and processing requests from the warehouse and shops - there were sent by mail, etc. Now we have a great multi-user platform that serves our 100 employees well. We track all our requisitions and purchases for raw materials, intricate parts, that are procured daily from over 50 suppliers around the globe. Precoro is asy to learn and use, the features we need are built-in, and we didn't have to do a lot of customization!

Minpunten:

Great program. I haven't had any issues with using Precoro.

Amazing Streamlined Purchasing with Precoro

Opmerkingen: 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.

Pluspunten:

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.

Minpunten:

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.

Superb tool for controlling purchases and expenses

Opmerkingen: The solution is more efficient than manual tracking methods and has helped us to significantly boost our output. It's simple to learn and its cost is low enough that even a startup like ours can afford it.

Pluspunten:

Our company uses Precoro as its procurement system to streamline the formerly manual processes involved in the purchasing process. The company's whole procurement cycle can be managed at the departmental or regional level with the help of this program.

Minpunten:

Since the PR's accompanying documents and comments did not make it through to the PO, we will need to retype them and attach the documents once again.

Useable Software With Room for Improvement

Opmerkingen: Coming from the world of SAP, I have enjoyed the user interface much more with Precoro. In addition, Precoro's support team is extremely responsive and open to ideas for improvement in the product that sometimes are acted on. However, the program still lacks some common low-level functionality and I have concerns whether it is robust enough for more complex needs.

Pluspunten:

The GUI is overall pleasant and user-friendly. There has been little to no down-time. Organization of the different features is relatively straightforward. It can accomplish the bulk of what we need.

Minpunten:

There are some notably-absent permissions settings that make it difficult to manage using across a large team. Likewise, some industry-standard aspects of POs and Invoices are simply not available. Reporting therefore is not as useful as it could be.

Increase staff productivity and reduce expenses

Opmerkingen: 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.

Pluspunten:

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.

Minpunten:

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.

Great Purchase Management System

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

Pluspunten:

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

Minpunten:

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

Overwogen alternatieven: Fishbowl en Katana Manufacturing ERP

Redenen om voor Precoro te kiezen: 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.

Redenen om over te stappen op Precoro: affordability, customer service, and ease of use

Great tool with unmatched support

Opmerkingen: The team has been such a joy to work with. They have answered all of our questions and dealt with a lot of changes from our end with speed and efficiency.

Pluspunten:

The software is incredibly easy to use and very customizable. There are constant updates and product enhancements that continue to improve our process.

Minpunten:

The only con I can see is really just waiting for more integration with the invoicing piece as we are so pleased with the purchasing functionality that we cannot wait to eventually integrate our invoices as well.

Precoro - An Awesome Purchasing Software

Opmerkingen: We have been able to move away from a manual purchasing process. We are now able to set up catalogs, track purchases and spend in real time through reports -- no more manual process!
[SENSITIVE CONTENT] our Sales contact at Precoro was good but [SENSITIVE CONTENT]our Success Manager is EXCELLENT!
[SENSITIVE CONTENT] is very knowledgeable, patient and always willing to help. She has gone above and beyond the routine which definitely contributed to our SUCCESS story.

Pluspunten:

Precoro is user friendly and encompasses all aspects of procurement if you so desire to use those features. You can set rules to govern different levels for workflow and compliance. Ability to RFP direct from the requisition Direct link with Amazon Ability to send attachments, notes and comments as needed

Minpunten:

To date we found that we are not able to print a batch of Purchase Orders

OVERALL GREAT PLATFORM

Opmerkingen: WE CAN ALL NOW VIEW THE PURCHASE ORDERS AND MATCH THEM UP EASIER WITH THE INVOICES.

Pluspunten:

I AM ABLE TO CREATE INVOICES, CREATE RECEIPTS, AND REACH OUT TO THE VENDOR FROM ONE PAGE. ALL PURCHASE ORDERS IN ONE PLACE AND EASY TO FIND.

Minpunten:

I THINK ONCE AN INVOICE IS CREATED OR RECEIPT IS MADE, THERE SHOULD BE A DIFFERENT LOCATION FOR THE PO'S. MAYBE SEPERATE THEM, DONE, NOT DONE, ETC.

Review

Opmerkingen: Overall pretty good, we have been able to fit it in with our organization fairly well, but there are still a few key items we wish we could improve. Lisa and team have been a great support staff in helping us through this.

Pluspunten:

There are some features we cannot use on other software which are nice (vacation mode, complex approval levels, inventory management, etc)

Minpunten:

It is not as flexible for purchase orders & the admin cannot override as much as we would like

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

Opmerkingen: 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.

Pluspunten:

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.

Minpunten:

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.

more effective overall procurement process

Pluspunten:

Precoro mobile web version and approval from email allow me to do it from everywhere. In addition, we now know in real-time how much we're spending on each budget.l In just a few weeks using precoro we saw tremendous improvement in our process, especially around budgets and approvals. We use Quickbooks for accounting but it was a struggle because we didn't know how much was left in a specific budget and if it's okay to approve a request or not. It wasn't very easy for us. We were looking for many different solutions, but many services were unfriendly or didn't have all the functionality we needed. I'm so happy that we've found an excellent automated, integrated QB solution - Precoro!

Minpunten:

We have 2 people who make PO and separately approvers. They constantly need to revise PO and increase the amount through tolerance rate for receiving. It is very often the case that one creator is hired, and another can do it. but he hasn't a revised button because he is not in the approval flow.

Individual approach to each customer

Pluspunten:

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.

Minpunten:

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.

PRECORO SYSTEM

Opmerkingen: I love that the system can be used also from mobile.easy to work when away from a computer

Pluspunten:

As the procurement manager I was probably the first user in our conpany. The system is easy to use and well designed. We had some requests that Olena from Precoro and her team developed and added quickly. In general customer service is so helpful . Now as the admin of the system i understand it even better snd i handle the users requests and i can honestly say it is a really great system.

Minpunten:

No SAP integration but Precoro is working on this now and soon we will have this as well.

Nice Program to use

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

Pluspunten:

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.

Minpunten:

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.

Good Software

Opmerkingen: It is the best one which I have used and experienced.

Pluspunten:

Before your system we used the paper work in office but now we are happy that have a complete and good system to manage our budget and our procurement. Now we have a fast financial procedure.

Minpunten:

You should improve and work on it's graphic and make an IOS or Android app for your system.

your best colleague in the purchasing office.

Opmerkingen: Working in hotels often the buying process is very complex. With the last time we have the opportunity to simplify many things. In addition, the relationship with suppliers is also different. Now it's all much more transparent

Pluspunten:

With Precoro all the departments of our Hotel have the ability to make orders quickly and using only one portal

Minpunten:

We've put a lot of articles in front of us. Perhaps the search for products for purchase requisitions should be improved

A lot of advantages to use Precoro

Pluspunten:

Precoro completely covers our purchasing process, 100%. For example, there was no possibility to limit who can change suppliers' info. The problem was solved and got even more than expected. After the demo, we realized that Precoro has a lot more approval capabilities compared with similar services. There are approvals on locations, departments, custom fields, and you can set up this process step-by-step as you need. Especially I liked the integration with QBO and the customization of user roles. Thanks to Precoro, we improved a PR-PO creation and approval system.

Minpunten:

We had one problem - there wasn’t the ability to delete data in supplier management configurations if they have not been used anywhere else. But the Precoro team considered our issue, and the next update solved it. That’s perfect when a company listens to customer’s needs.

In Shypshyna we use Precoro to give access to internal customers in regions

Opmerkingen: We have 28 regions representatives and 19 office employees working in Precoro. All the representatives sell tires and autobatteries. When they need any of this, they use catalog of Shypshyna's products to request them from warehouse (office employees). There is approval routing of 3 employees.

Pluspunten:

Workflow is adjusted. Precoro has friendly UI and our internal representatives easily use it to process purchase requests and make POs from them. Interactive catalog is great, also we can upload report with costcenters into our ERP

Minpunten:

We're waiting for the integration with our warehouse tool to automate all process.

Great tool for new startups

Opmerkingen: I am glad I found Precoro at the start of our business operations, it got us back on track with our purchasing process.

Pluspunten:

The ease of implementation, user friendliness and the support is great, especially for non-finance managers

Minpunten:

As the business grow and operations get more complicated, Precoro alone may not be sufficient (e.g inventory management, payment vouchers creation)

Best Procurement Software

Opmerkingen: It's one of the best procurement software I have used

Pluspunten:

-easy to use -easy to implement --good User interface

Minpunten:

-attached documents need to be downloaded to view.

Precoro review

Opmerkingen: Our overall experience is very good. The software is user friendly, easy to use with very good support.

Pluspunten:

The customer support is brilliant and very quick in solution.

Minpunten:

Unfortunately it is not possible to disable unused items in counters. But I believe, this will be solved soon.

Great Product

Opmerkingen: My overall experience has been pleasant. Precoro works the way our organization needs and allows us to accomplish our daily tasks with ease.

Pluspunten:

What we enjoy most is the ease of use and intuitive nature of the software. You can easily navigate to any screen and accomplish you tasks without much strain looking for the options to select.

Minpunten:

Nothing really comes to mind. The software works exactly like our organization needs.

Great purchasing tool

Opmerkingen: The procurement team started working more efficiently, and I like the streamlined process which we have now. Before Precoro, my employees were annoyed with the manual process. The main thing for us was to have the automated approval routing to don't chase and ask who should approve this or those documents. We solved it. Thank the guys.

Pluspunten:

I can track how much money is left in budgets. It helps to be well informed about cash flow. The reports section is good. It helps the CFO create further procurement plans. You can approve on the go via the phone, which is convenient.

Minpunten:

Nothing significant. Everyone who works with it is satisfied.

New level of control

Opmerkingen: We created PRs on an excel form or in a word document. The problem was that some of these PRs could be unnoticed for a few months. And there wasn't a way to track anything. Of course, having departments and dedicated budgets means having controls. But earlier, we did not have a streamlined process by each department like now. Custom fields for departments, products, services, and categories you want - a perfect solution for us.

Pluspunten:

approval process, report section, reasonable price, 3-way-matching, fast onboarding process

Minpunten:

Today when a PO is approved, you can see two dates at the top of the screen: Creation Date and Delivery Date. It would be better to add the Approved Date, the date the PO was first approved and sent to the vendor.
