SpendHQ Reviews & Product Details

What I appreciate the most is that SpendHQ is a tool designed by buyers for buyers: the purchasing business logic is native, not overlaid on a general tool. And above all, the solution has been able to evolve with the profession over the years, and continues to do so. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Over the years, the tool has mainly evolved to meet the needs of very large organizations. As a result, it is sometimes a bit oversized and more distant from the issues faced by smaller purchasing departments — typically teams of 5 to 10 buyers. A mode or configuration better tailored for these intermediate structures would enhance its relevance in this segment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I particularly appreciate the tool's ergonomics, its comprehensiveness, and the customization options it offers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The design of the tool could be improved to optimize the user experience and make it more pleasant to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The most useful thing is the aggregation of thousands of Excel lines with currencies, supplier names, and disparate categories, with the possibility of then creating thousands of different reports with power filters.

I like the grouping of several suppliers from the same group under a single account, the automatic categorization, and the search for the DUNS number.

Very interesting is the information on new suppliers versus previous periods.

I could have more and more information, but my sources are very disparate from one region to another, limiting the possibilities of drilling down to increasingly detailed information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are no disadvantages, but rather certain challenges if data integration is done with Excel files, and what is not very intuitive is the creation of ad hoc reports since there are many variables, etc... Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Not always as flexible as envisioned --- Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

SpendHQ has a very user-friendly interface which simplifies sourcing projects and savings visibility across categories. It’s intuitive, which makes it easy to navigate and quickly generate insights without requiring advanced technical skills Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I dislike about SpendHQ is minor — I sometimes wish there were more options to tailor reports and better link data across different modules, but overall the platform remains highly efficient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love using SpendHQ for its support and flexibility, which have made data consolidation seamless and efficient. The user-friendly analytics dashboard is invaluable for tracking data issues and improving processes. The integration with other tools like Tamer and Power BI is smooth, providing a comprehensive view of our spend profile. I also appreciate the supportive team behind the product, whose willingness to help has been tremendously beneficial. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would like to see a data quality module added to SpendHQ. Since our use case heavily relies on the quality of data being ingested, it's important for us to track and understand data health throughout the ingestion and processing stages. This addition would help identify and fix any data issues before we proceed with analytics and decision-making based on the business data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

SpendHQ is a great tool for helping Sourcing/Procurement teams with their spend categorizations and vendor normalization. Using SpendHQ makes it easy for our Category Teams to get their specific data and the vendor normalization ensures we capture all the vendors if we're running a report on a specific vendor. The UI is also user friendly, which I appreciate because it makes it less intimidating for less tech savvy individuals to use it. Lastly, the SpendHQ BI Team has also been amazing in assisting with a lot of data issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

SpendHQ is not as flexible as I would like it to be and there can still be a lot of improvements. I think mass uploads by Admins would be a great feature. One thing that annoys me is the self normalization, recategorization, preferred vendor tool which takes forever to load. If we're entering quite a bit of vendors for correction, this process can take a lot of time. Additionally, sometimes the recategorizations can be a bit funky.

I really like Per Angusta's front end. It's incredibly helpful for presenting complex issues simply and at a glance, which is exactly what management wants to see. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The configuration in the backend is a bit tricky. You have to work with the tool regularly to understand the configuration and be able to adjust it yourself. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The SpendHQ interface both in Spend Intelligence and PPM is user friendly allowing user with wide range of capabilities to effectively use the tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Changes to procurement taxonomy can be challenging to update in the tool. Documentation of account data is not maintained as frequently as I'd like. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
