The following vendors are leaders according to the feedback provided by their end users via SoftwareReviews’ comprehensive online survey. Vendors are rated on product features, vendor capabilities, and the relationship with their software partner:
“The vendors who score high in our 2021 Strategic Sourcing Data Quadrant demonstrate a strong commitment to accurate, responsive, and timely communication, which is vital to their clients’ satisfaction with implementation and change orders,” said Steven Jeffery, practice lead, Info-Tech Research Group.
What makes the SoftwareReviews Data Quadrant different?
The study involves gathering intelligence on user satisfaction with both product features and the experience with the vendor. Aggregated emotional response ratings are included in the areas of service, negotiation, product impact, conflict resolution, and strategy and innovation to create a powerful indicator of overall user feeling toward the vendor and its product – all from the software users’ point of view. SoftwareReviews calls this insight the Net Emotional Footprint.
Scanmarket, with a Net Emotional Footprint of +96, scored top product in many areas, exceeding user expectations in auction management and procurement management. SAP Ariba, with a Net Emotional Footprint of +88 was ranked highly for capacity management and contract management.
In general, Strategic Sourcing software users were most satisfied with capacity management – and were most dissatisfied with product strategy and rate of improvement.
