Executive Summary

Still lagging behind the leaders in key functions like spend analysis and sourcing activity management, Oracle is not yet a top-tier eSourcing suite vendor in terms of functionality. But the company received very good scores in supplier discovery (just behind the leader) and supplier assessment (tied with Emptoris and Frictionless), and received good scores in RFx/reverse auctions and sourcing decision. It also ranks high in features like integration and globalization, though it is middle-of-the-pack in hosted options (where it only offers hosting of licensed software). Oracle may not be a top-tier vendor yet, but it is investing in new capabilities to close the gap with the leaders, and it has the resources and focus to grow its presence in this market.
