Zoho Procurement
Zoho Procurement manages purchasing from employee requests through supplier payments as a source-to-pay platform. Employees can submit catalog or ad hoc requests that proceed through hierarchical approvals, custom workflows, and automation rules. Sourcing tools handle RFx events, bid comparisons, evaluations, and supplier shortlisting. Suppliers can use a self-service portal to bid, manage purchase orders, submit invoices, and track payments. The system can create purchase orders from approved requests and RFQs, record partial or complete deliveries, and use OCR and AI to capture invoice data and validate it against orders and receipts. Payment options include ACH, batch payments, and connected banking for India, with availability varying by plan. Premium costs $35 per user per month billed annually; Enterprise costs $75 per user per month billed annually. Each purchased user license includes 50 requester licenses. A 14-day trial includes all features and does not require credit card information to start. The service runs on Android, iOS, web, and API. Zoho lists weekday phone and email support, available 24 hours a day Monday through Friday.
