Zoho Procurement
Chennai, India
What it is
Zoho Procurement is a source-to-pay platform for managing purchasing from employee requests through payments. Employees can submit catalog or ad hoc requests, which can pass through hierarchical approvals, custom workflows, and automation rules. Sourcing tools handle RFx events, vendor bid comparisons, evaluations, and supplier shortlisting. Suppliers can use a self-service portal to bid, manage purchase orders, submit invoices, and track payments. Approved requests and RFQs can generate purchase orders, while teams can record partial or complete deliveries with receipt notes. Zoho says its invoice automation uses OCR and AI to capture invoice details and validate them against orders and receipts. Payment choices include ACH, batch payments, and connected banking for India, though availability varies by plan. Premium starts at $35 per user per month with annual billing; Enterprise is $75 per user per month with annual billing. Each purchased user license includes 50 requester licenses. A 14-day trial with all features is available without a credit card. The service supports Android, iOS, web, and API access.
