“Jaggaer Sourcing Review”

2.0
Dec 11, 2018
Our account management team has changed multiple times during my 3 years of working relationship with them. For the new Sourcing module that we implemented 2 years ago, it has not been a user-friendly product and we have not had reasonable amount of support that we like to have. Also Jaggaer has increased cost of using the tool and is not very accommodating our needs.

JAGGAER Direct Strategic Sourcing Suite (Legacy) Likes & Dislikes

Like

If properly set up by the state agency, Jaggaer provides opportunities to fully and completely respond to RFP and other requests. it is easily managed, navigated, and completed.

Like

What I like about it is we have an eSourcing tool and we already have Jaggaer Total Contract module. The Sourcing module links with the contract system which allow us to create contract right from a sourcing event.

Like

The huge capabilities that the tool provides. it is adaptable to new regulations, new market requests, etc.

Dislike

It initially took some time and effort to learn to navigate the various pages in the RFP, and th estate sponsor was slow to answer questions.

Dislike

The customization of the sourcing tool is limited. At this time the product is more standardized and designed for physical good/products. The cost analysis and vendor comparison is not that helpful to evaluate services or software sourced. We have to build our scorecard to rate vendor proposals outside of the system. Another shortcoming is it's not user friendly to the vendors. 90% of vendors have trouble registering and gaining access to the sourcing events we publish. That's extra time and effort on our end to help instruct and train vendors to use the system. I'd hope to have recommended vendor list based on the product/service scope we seek through the system. There's no such function currently. We have to do our own market and vendor research prior to sending the RFP to interested vendors. The tool somehow becomes a bottleneck in the process and only a repository place. Support is very minimum from JAGGAER. We have expressed the concerns and challenge, however, they have not been helpful with our experience.

Dislike

The more things include in the customizable part, the more difficult it is to use for the end user. It is a really powerful tool but sometimes the users cannot see all that it does.

    Really good combination of default and customizable settings

    Very powerful tool with a lot of setting possibilities. This tool can be as simple or as complicated as the company wants. The real challenge is to reach the average point among make the tool user friendly and to cover all settings needed to monitor and control procurement Dept and Supply Chain Management.

    Had the opportunity to use this application on several E-sourcing events on a trial basis. Overall less clunky than other applicaitons I have used and has some powerful analysis/reporting options that may take some learnings to leverage properly.
