eSourcing Suites Scorecard Summary: Global eProcure

Key Findings From "The Forrester Wave™: eSourcing Suites, Q4 2005"

Executive Summary (This is a document excerpt)

Despite being a small vendor, Global eProcure offers a competitive product at an attractive price. Its current offering score came in sixth place, ahead of PeopleSoft, Perfect, and SAP, but slightly behind Oracle. Its strengths include good but not outstanding modules for spend analysis, supplier assessment, supplier discovery, and RFx/reverse auctions; its weaknesses include sourcing decision tools and sourcing activity management. Although it has weak integration tools, it provides several hosting options — both single-instance and shared-instance ASP hosting — and while its globalization support isn't best in class, it's not bad. Its relatively low price and adequate functions make it an attractive option for sub-Global 2000 companies with relatively straightforward sourcing needs. Though small, Global eProcure has been profitable for several years with growing revenues, which make it a relatively safe choice.
