Precoro

Pros

We like that we're able to track a job's budget in place as well as being able to see all documents related to a specific purchase. We even started taking pictures of the merchandise when it arrived and saving it in the PO in Precoro.

Cons

I would like to see a budget template that can be uploaded and the purchasing be tracked through Precoro.

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.

Reasons for Switching to Precoro

Pros

Easy to navigate and create purchase orders

Cons

the website freezes from time to time and has some issues loading but other than that; it works just fine

Pros

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.

Cons

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.

Pros

It is easy to maneuver and to use and train on.

Cons

completing the req and pending receipt. If you complete the req then that should complete the receipt

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.

Pros

captures all required needs in one program!

Cons

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

Pros

The customer service is awesome. Someone is always welling to assist us.

Cons

We haven't started using it fully yet, so nothing as of yet.

Pros

The ease of use and the reports that are produced.

Cons

Occasional failures in access, and in the data boxes.

Pros

I find the feature of marking PO`s as fully or partly received very very useful. This is so because i always have first hand information on the status of all my orders and lets me know where to focus my attention.Yes i find the product easy to use and it was perfectly integrated with quickbooks

Cons

The fact that i cannot automatically post warehouse returns is what i dont like. Except i have to manually do stock changes which is what i dont like doing.

Pros

Precoro simplifed a lot how we do accounting. WIth it integration with quickbook it is a breaze to track expense and budgeting. The PO creation and then status update along the way are very user friendly and easy to use.Creating receipt for received product allows us to track the whole PO lifetime up to the part reception. Very good upgrade for a small company who used to do all its POs manually ! Using a list of pre-imported part is also very useful for stuff you buy on a regular basis.

Cons

The only missing options in precoro are the ability to say where the part consumption are going. It would be useful to fully track a part lifetime.Tracking part revision is also not super well integrated, we got it to work but had to use some workaround

Pros

Precoro help us to reduce paperwork and facilitate us procurement management since requesting up to ordering

Cons

When we meet problems during processing, you are ready to help us and the feed back comes quickly

None that I know of. I am satisfied with the system.

Pros

Precoro is a great option for a comprehensive and user-friendly tool to streamline our purchasing and track our spending. I particularly appreciate the ease with which we can add vendors, create and manage purchase orders, and track payments. The interface is straightforward and easy to navigate, making it a great option for busy professionals.

Cons

Precoro is great! I have nothing to dislike about it! Precoro is a great platform for managing procurement and supplier relationships.

Pros

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!

Cons

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.

Pros

I really love the precoro soft, I enjoyed using this soft that is helping us to control and manage the company expenses, order, vendor, etc.

Cons

Raising PO, Warehouse requests, Precoro company system admin, and the system access right modification.

Pros

Until Precoro, we used excel & email to create and track requests. There were often delays in delivering goods to the project site. The procurement manager didn't understand whether the goods have already been delivered. It wasn't easy to track the approval status of requests by mail. There weren't clear reports on spending. Now we have automatically generated reports, which are made from a lot of custom fields. That's an excellent ground to control your spending. We got rid of excel, and procurement managers are satisfied with simplifying their work. Tracking invoices during all levels of the cycle is one of my favorite features. The customer support team is supportive and very kind.

Cons

I would like to see the PO details on the side, but I still need to open each PO to see our cost centers. It would be better if PO details are added to the side view. That would keep me from having to open each PO and maneuver back to the dashboard each time.

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

Pros

1. A beneficial visual representation of the budget information. 2.User-friendly design and best form of supply chain digitization. 3.Reference each PO by looking it up in the search box by PO number.

Cons

Sometimes not all text is displayed. Although when I loaded information, the system saved all I entered. It would be better to show restrictions on the number of entered characters, like '0/250', so that you can immediately see how many characters are left.

Pros

1 - Instant reports, which help to get insights and make better decisions. Our financial department is delighted and thankful for simplifying analytical work.
2 - We were glad of the ability to add multiple currencies, offices to 1 account.
3 - We like their last update about Custom Fields for Documents. You can change them in Budgets, even when used in documents, and it won’t affect created documents. Love their permanent updates!
4 - Now, almost all invoices are processed electronically.

Cons

Nothing important. I'm satisfied with the results.
