> **Verified Reviewer** | *24 May 2021* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Absolutely the user experience is far superior than that of any other enterprise software I’ve ever seen, especially in procurement. And the no-code configuration of Zip.
>

### "A game changer\!" — 5.0/5

> **Rebeca** | *23 November 2022* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I love that Zip allows us to customize our approval workflows as much as possible - especially compared to other procurement systems. It is clear that the Zip team is on a mission to be the best in the market, and in my opinion, they are well on their way to being exactly that. Such a user-friendly platform has reduced our need to train our internal requesters on how to submit purchase requests, thus giving our procurement team more bandwidth to work on more important things. It has also enabled our internal approvers to maneuver through their reviews quickly and with ease. \[SENSITIVE CONTENT\], our customer success expert, has also been a pleasure to work with\! She is always available to answer any/all questions promptly and has done an excellent job of keeping our teams connected via recurring sync sessions.
> 
> **Cons**: There aren't many things to mention here as far as dislikes. The only "dislikes" to mention are minor user interface issues, like not being able to open a request on a separate tab when viewing the complete list of pending approvals or not being able to customize the drop-down status list on certain approval steps (i.e. the only options as of now are to choose between "ready to start" "in progress" "waiting on vendor" and "blocked internally"). It would be nice to be able to add additional statuses like "approved with conditions" or "waiting on requester reply", etc).
> 
> Zip has enabled us to better track our procurement department's performance metrics, from cycle time for requests to how long each approver takes to review/approve a request. It has also allowed us to better communicate internally with our teams via the Zip request record. It also serves as a one-stop shop for any/all procurement-related functions, from submitting a simple purchase request to requesting a review from our legal/security teams. Overall, it has helped us centralize our procurement operations, giving each department clear visibility into what is going through our pipeline.
