What to Look for in 2025

Choosing the right digital procurement platform is critical, but not easy. The market is crowded, capabilities vary and feature sets evolve constantly.

Here’s how to choose smartly in 2025.

Comparison Criteria That Matter

When evaluating platforms like Coupa, SAP Ariba, Ivalua, ZIP, and Jaggaer, focus on:

  • Interoperability – Can it integrate with your ERP, CRM and supplier systems?
  • Usability – Is the interface intuitive enough for business users?
  • Analytics – Does it generate actionable insights, not just dashboards?
  • Speed to value – How long to deploy and see ROI?
  • AI-readiness – Is it future-proofed for automation and intelligence?
