A no brainer for our business

We reviewed BusinessBid alongside two other US-based software providers. BusinessBid had the most compelling demo, provided the greatest level of responsiveness, and very importantly provided the least "pressure-y, car salesman" sales pitch. From the start they presented themselves as a company worth partnering with.

PROS

The team at BusinessBid is incredibly responsive and has made me feel as if we have a dedicated concierge assisting us with implementation. The software is simple to use and loaded with features. We sourced this software specifically for running reverse auctions but the supplier management and RFP tools are equally capable. It's extremely intuitive and easy to get suppliers onboarded and ready to participate in auctions. It's realistic to expect that you can onboard the software on a Monday, invite suppliers on a Tuesday, run a couple practice auctions on Wednesday for the benefit of the suppliers, do the real thing on Thursday, and take Friday off!

CONS

I haven't encountered any cons. The price is fair and the overall value proposition is lightyears ahead of other providers.

Reason for choosing BusinessBid

The software seemed most capable and the pricing model was much more conducive to a company testing the waters with reverse auctions

BusinessBid offered a great alternative to the larger platforms available today

BusinessBid was a pleasure to work with. At the time I reached out, their platform did not offer what I needed but they were willing to spend time and understand what I needed and delivered quickly. Not only did they deliver quickly, but they helped train our suppliers and users, created manuals and actively participated in the RFP process throughout to ensure any hiccups were addressed promptly. Their service was excellent.

PROS

This software allowed me to issue a large scale raw materials RFP comprised of over 1200 raw materials and 55 suppliers with minimal training while reducing my workload considerably. BusinessBid really worked with me to understand what I needed and customized the platform almost exactly as I needed it.

CONS

The platform sometimes requires too many clicks to get to a certain page or place but frankly, that's based on what we collectively designed and can always be improved upon later.

Reason for choosing BusinessBid

They provided me with exactly what I needed for a very reasonable cost. Most companies were unwilling to develop beyond what they had already produced and they were much more expensive.

Software use

We are using Business Bid to raise and fulfil requisitions. It helps us to streamline the process from the moment when a request is raised to approval my management to the request fulfilment by procurement department.

PROS

The software is very easy to use, all users have learned quickly its functionality. The integration with our process was relatively easy and smooth.

CONS

From time to time we face needs for the functionality improvements and Business Bid team assist us promptly with it.
