**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Faizan 	 S. | Marketing executive, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

  ### 4. Zycus S2P review

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Business Supplies and Equipment | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 23, 2022

**What do you like best about Zycus Source-to-Pay?**

Zycus S2P is a comprehensive tool especially for tracking your spending, sourcing cycles and right up to managing the contracts. The spending tool is A.I.-backed has the ability to learn from past spending patterns. It is also the most used tool. The Procure-to-Pay systems are quite new and they cannot scan the metadata from invoices, making the P2P system  not as smart as the others.

**What do you dislike about Zycus Source-to-Pay?**

I disliked the Supplier management system & the AP automation system the most as it has been quite a challenge dealing with invoices on the P2P system. The supplier management system requires a lot of checks to be filled  from the supplier end which is difficult to adopt for the suppliers.

**What problems is Zycus Source-to-Pay solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Zycus customers have used the spending tool to categorize their spending to determine where they are spending most and reduce or categorize their spending under a single bucket. This helps them make better decisions for the next soucing cycle and better negotiate their contracts with suppliers.

  ### 10. Application has no API, Sell side is not strong

**Rating:** 0.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Financial Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 03, 2018

**What do you like best about Zycus Source-to-Pay?**

User Interface is good, works well for tracking Vendor contracts. 


**What do you dislike about Zycus Source-to-Pay?**

No API, the only way to integrate is through flat files, welcome to 1986.
The Sell side management of contracts is not well defined. This is better for customers who are managing contracts with Vendors (which we are using as well). There was no solution found during vetting that was strong on both sides of Contract management. 
Buy side works OK but vendor is not good at keeping to timelines. Account manager oversold capabilities.

**Recommendations to others considering Zycus Source-to-Pay:**

As long as you don't require live integrations with something like an ERP or CRM such as Salesforce.

**What problems is Zycus Source-to-Pay solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Tracking contracts with vendors, not much business value without an API. Cannot integrate with external systems, have to use flat file data loads.

  ### 11. Great tool for a growing business

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Telecommunications | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 29, 2018

**What do you like best about Zycus Source-to-Pay?**

Zycus is more user friendly than a tool like SAP and the future outlook of the tool appears to be heading in the right direction.

**What do you dislike about Zycus Source-to-Pay?**

There are many details that have been overlooked by the creators of Zycus that diminish the overall value that Zycus can bring to an organization.

Here are some examples:
Zycus does not currently provide the ability to run reports based on the manufacturer and manufacturer part number fields.
The item master is separate from and not tied to the sourcing catalogs, which is not good in manufacturing environments.

**Recommendations to others considering Zycus Source-to-Pay:**

Only buy the modules you need from the beginning and then add on from there.  Compare products in the market to find the tool that matches the future needs of your company.

**What problems is Zycus Source-to-Pay solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Zycus has allowed us to apply financial controls where there previously weren't any.

  ### 12. Find another solution . . ..

**Rating:** 0.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Internet | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 07, 2017

**What do you like best about Zycus Source-to-Pay?**

Scorecards work fairly well.  We have an implementer who is very polite.

**What do you dislike about Zycus Source-to-Pay?**

it's very rigid; you can't upload your own suppliers into iSource, you have to either pay or hand enter them.  You can't widen columns so only the first few characters appear (although there's much more space).  You can't even graph savings % unless you hand calculate it and enter it as a value in a custom field.  Our Implementation and support teams are 100% offshore.  We were told it was 'highly configurable' but we hadn't realized they're the only ones who can configure it, and 'highly' is a relative term.

**Recommendations to others considering Zycus Source-to-Pay:**

consider carefully how you report savings & such.  If you don't calculate it their way, or you need to report it for all deals, not just those that are sourced with a RFQ/RFP, be sure you see EXACTLY how it will be performed BEFORE you buy this tool.   Don't assume anything.

**What problems is Zycus Source-to-Pay solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We'll see. . . .
