What is Coupa?

The platform is intuitive and easy to navigate, which enhances user adoption and efficiency. It offers a high degree of flexibility, allowing us to tailor features and workflows to meet our specific business needs. Both technical and functional support have been consistently responsive and effective. Coupa gives us the ability to track expenditures by contract and provides valuable insights that support more informed supplier negotiations in the future.

Dislike

RPM-SIM has many areas of improvement into reporting and how forms are setup, maintained and reported out of, but Coupa has taking the time to address some of our pain points within the existing capabilities which am sure they will evolve in updacoming upgrades

pricing for additional modules, not able to test it before but always have to sign/buy for may users for multie years. not agile

Dislike

The ability to customize or extract ALL data is somewhat restricted. Certain aspects of the system offer limited configurability, which can affect alignment with specific business processes. The platform has restrictions in designing complex or highly customized approval chains, although a recent upgrade allows more complexity than before.

What Your Peers Are Saying About Coupa

IT Analyst
Are there any commercial off-the-shelf products that can help in the bidding/tendering process? I know Ariba, Coupa can, but we are looking for a tool that can help oil and gas downstream companies with these capabilities, especially on the sales side than purchase side. 
Finance Manager
I am interested in seeing the results.  They may come into play as we continually look to improve processes and remove risks, as applicable.  The process we have are more manual and are in the form of templates leveraging Microsoft tools.  Previous employers (retail) used Coupa.

Director of IT
Among the various contract lifecycle management tools available in the market, what do you think of various options like Docusign, SAP ARIBA, Icertis, Coupa? With a dominantly SAP based landscape, which could be a more suitable one? Consider it's a long term investment.
Director of Supply Chain
We are about to start a tender process for this and going to attempt to use the Buy Smart functionality. We also have a SAP based architecture for our ERP however it is unlikely we will go with Ariba mainly based on cost and complexity.

    A solid and highly customisable S2P platform, with strengths at the payments end, but lacking at the Sourcing end.

    4.0
    Sep 1, 2025
    From a product perspective, Coupa feels like the "Android" version of a S2P suite, with a significant amount of operational customisation available. Approval workflows, restricted access groups and granular user permissions allow the ability to customise the way in which the business interacts with the tool, catering for a variety of use cases, depending on which part of the business is using the tool. The vendor's customer success team has been very receptive and has guided us through the journey.
