Adoption of eSourcing software is critical to the success of any eSourcing program. However, organizations investing in eSourcing software are faced with the challenge of ensuring successful adoption. As a result, spend routed through the tool remains low and consequently all the benefits accruing from eSourcing tools suffer.

The key reason behind low user adoption is cumbersome eSourcing software that makes the software difficult to use. Lowering the adoption further is the common misconception that eSourcing is primarily eAuctions ignoring other essential features like eRFx and evaluation.

In case you are considering buying an eSourcing tool, it is highly imperative to ensure high user adoption to realize the true business benefits.

Go beyond eAuctions to complete supplier Evaluation and Negotiation -

Zycus iSource aims at maximizing user adoption, ensure sustained savings, and conduct unbiased supplier evaluation.
