What do you like best about Tradeshift?

1st of all is that the software is very to use and fast in. processing the requests made. its invoicing feature is the most unique in that when a client makes an order all you have to do is accept his request in in the TM site and automatically the invoice is done. then notification comes when the client accepts and makes the required payment.

some applications in the computer are not 100% compatible with the software but the likes of chrome solves it all. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Tradeshift?

Loading invoices is quick. Very quick, however, there are some real issues ... Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Tradeshift?

As other reviewers have posted, there is no real support for when you need to ask a question - this is all done by email only - no live chat, no phone number ... and no way of questioning the response that you get! You are unable to track partial invoicing through the portal - you need to keep a running list of exactly what you have invoiced through the system. The lack of real support (not a response in parrot-fashion nonsense that you cannot query). I have also found that you do not seem to be able to refer back to a 'resolved' query, unless you raise a new query - only then can you see what you've queried before!

"Would recommend great tool"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Tradeshift?

Easy and simple to use, it stores all my invoices and I can recall any anytime I wish. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Tradeshift?

At times the website does take its time loading, and invoices kept open in a tab then going back to save sometimes bug out and a new invoice pops up. Not really a big deal for an invoice created on the spot but for someone like myself I use a 'time used' invoice so I sometimes keep a tab open. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy way to track the status of purchase orders"
4/5
What do you like best about Tradeshift?

Our company has a customer that uses Tradeshift. I submit our invoices through the Tradeshift site. All the vital information is already in the system - I don't have to re-enter it. With a few clicks, our invoice is submitted; and it's easy to track the status. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Tradeshift?

Not much. Maybe the fact that if there is a correction needed on the purchase order (like pricing), there has to be a VOID done to the first entry, and another entry done. Might be nice to just change/alter the original entry without needing a VOID. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"your worst nightmare"
0/5
What do you like best about Tradeshift?

No reccomendations. Well I need to write more. All I can say is this system is the most worthless piece of software I have ever worked with. Inflexible. Does not function. I only use it cause I was forced to by my vendor. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Tradeshift?

Does not work like it is supposed to. Only works for the first time a specific PO is issued. After that, good luck. Have wasted time at the computer re applying etc. to get PO's approved. The supposed help is worthless. I had one PO several months ago that took over a week to get approved and ran thru.

"It does what it does very well."
3.5/5
What do you like best about Tradeshift?

Tradeshift is pretty straightforward to use and understand. Getting set up was very easy, and we were able to keep most of our invoicing processes basically the same. The visibility of what is going on in the purchasing system of our customer is great. For adding a step to every order, and every piece of correspondence on such documents between a vendor and a customer, Tradeshift doesn't get in the way too much of just doing business. It is pretty easy to get help on issues, and get those issues resolved quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Tradeshift?

Tradeshift adds to the order procurement process. There is no way around that. We have been emailing pdf copies of the invoices to a Tradeshift email, and we have to validate nearly every one that we send. It's still easier in many ways than manually working those order flips, but it adds to the time involved. Also, the system is only as good as the people on both ends working it. The customer has to be diligent about plugging their stuff in, and the vendor has to be just as diligent as well for the whole thing to work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Tradeshift is not all that it's cracked up to be"
1.5/5
What do you like best about Tradeshift?

I like that we can flip Purchase orders into invoices. That's very convenient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Tradeshift?

It can be very slow and seems to frequently have technical issues. It also has a limitation that only one person can receive email notifications. We have 23 locations so either my coworkers have to remember to log in every day or two or I have to sort through the POs and try to forward them on to the correct coworker.

What do you like best about Tradeshift?

I like the potential of tool if they can deliver Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Tradeshift?

The system could potentially be very useful if it can deliver the client's requirement. Each company has their own system and process and it's not easy to advocate unless the tool is more intuitive than what they are currently using. For the most part, LinkedIn is working with a lot of bigger clients with a system in place that cannot be easily integrated into TS. For this reason, there's still a big amount of manual work that is required to be done in order to process an invoice submitted using the tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Fast Easy Efficient"

What do you like best about Tradeshift?

It processes my invoices quick and efficiently. From the start it was very easy to learn and takes very little time to check the status of my invoices and to see what I am currently working on for my client. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Tradeshift?

I do get extra emails that ask me to respond to them. Could use fewer of those but I'm sure it is their way of keeping me posted to where I stand with that particular job. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
