Ariba Spend Management Review
Overall my experience using Ariba has been positive and I enjoy using it. It is only the transaction search option that needs to be improved
PROSAriba is very easy to use for managing and approving transactions. The software is somehow integrated with our financial institution making easy to track company expenses.
CONSThe system is not "search friendly" and I find it hard to find certain credit card purchases. This is especially hard when the transaction is already approved or expired.

Ariba
I have been using this software with invoices to create Purchase Orders. It’s very easy to keep track of all of the invoices and their statuses. Depending on your company’s finance team, it takes a while for your pending invoices to be approved but are able to see who you need approval from to be able to follow up.
PROSSubmitting an invoice is fairly easy to learn and quite repetitive so a lot of copy and paste. You are able to keep track of everything
CONSLearning curve from different softwares. You have to learn the language of the system compared of others that are easier to understand but easy to use once you learn

Interesting Product
I like the ease of use amongst modules. The Ariba Spend Management Suite makes the managing of spend easy and allows you to have a robust procurement offering for your organization if configured properly. It can be a pretty awesome application when everything is in sync.
CONSThe customer support and sometimes the way that modules had to be configured didn't make sense. If you were an organization that wanted to use a particular feature sometimes you had to buy modules like P2P and Contract Management together to use feature even though you needed nothing else in the contract management module. The customer support was laughable when issues arise and talking with the front end support is usually futile. I'm also not a fan of their release procedures.

Useful but not so clear
Ariba Spend Management Suite is in general a good software. That's very useful to avoid any lack of information between the owner of the project and users and that's a good instrument to record all the messages exchanged between the parties. Let's say it can be used to do things in a right and fair way.
PROSAriba Spend Management Suite is a software that could be very useful to manage, for example, a tender. You can have there the whole information of the project divided by sections and the possibility to download contents or upload attachments. That's a good option to be always in touch with all the participants of the tender (as organizator) or to receive live updates for any change the tender could have.
CONSWhat it is not properly comfortable of this software is that, when the owner of the project modify something in Ariba Spend Management Suite (add some attachment, etc.), the user gets an email that simply say that "something as changed" but without no details regarding what exactly changed. This is quite unconfrotable because then the user needs to check the whole content of the project and compare it with what downloaded previously, in order to understand what changed. This is a huge waste of time IMO.

We are leaving this and moving our accounting to Maximo
We are leaving this software and will soon be using Maximo for all of our accounting purposes. It is always good to learn something new.
PROSOnly used it for accounting purposes and after a learning curve it was okay. I know it has more functionality that we used.
CONSThe accounting system was not user friendly. No training by our company. I understand that it is a very expensive software.

Speed needs to improve
I could search a particular detail with ease as it has various filters to choose from.
PROSI can enter all the information before processing a payment and I am alerted if an important information is missing or isn't a routine.
CONSSoftware is a bit slow, there have been times where outages were experienced, thus increasing the work-load post outage.

Not easy to use. And customer help didn't come easy.
The benefits we receive is that it allows us to pay our bills with ease.
PROSThe way It allows us to pay our bills makes it a good program to use. If and only if we have that company already added into our system.
CONSThe customer help didn't come easy. The addition of new vendors to the program was a pain. And getting more information from customer service was like pulling teeth.
