About Zip

Zip is the first and only unified intake-to-pay solution and provides one place for any employee at an organization to initiate a purchase or vendor request. Each request is correctly routed for approval across procurement, finance, IT, data security, legal, and other teams, and Zip integrates into all major ERP and P2P solutions to create a PR or draft PO.

Purchasing has become more decentralized than ever, especially for indirect procurement. It's important to have an intuitive, guided, zero-training-required experience for end-users to initiate requests with full visibility across all required approvals.

Zip works with private and public companies, from startups to large enterprises, to help them manage their procurement flows with ease.

    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.
    Cons:
    I wish Zip had more GRC integrations supported and more flexible reporting capabilities, but I know the team there is working on it.

    Reasons for choosing Zip

    Mostly because it had more features and flexibility we were looking for in our ideal set up.

    A game changer!

    5

    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.

    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).

    Simplified and streamlined procurement at scale

    5

    We use Zip for all procurement requests, approvals, PO, invoicing and payments for the entire organization. We use it as a single point of entry for all requests and use dynamic intake to collect all the needed information regardless of the type or amount of spend then use the information gathered at intake to automatically create and route approvals to all the necessary stakeholders. Zip is our single source of truth for purchase requests, contracts, renewals, purchase orders, payments, etc. Pretty much everything procurement related.

    Pros:
    The easy deployment of the tool is of great importance. Not having to use a 3rd party implementation team is a huge cost-saving component of why Zip won our business. The support team is also the best of the best. Operating super small, they are able to identify, support, and implement fixes at great speed. In comparison to other tools, you would have to pay extra for this level of support. The workflow builder with the ability to customize questions based on conditions and set layers of approvals based on it is extremely important to make it easy for users to adopt and administer to perform change management.
    Cons:
    Integration between tools like Vendr and Ironclad can be improved. For example, if the comment section in Ironclad can somehow be transferred over to Zip, that would make the entire experience seamless between the two systems. No sharable reports make it a pain for each user to create the same filtered view.
