Coordinator Contracts and Procurement Government Relations Used the software for: 2+ years ### "VendorPanel was a Game Changer!" December 13, 2023 5.0 VendorPanel makes purchasing simple, but enables compliance and good governance. Staff are always super responsive if we have any issues or enquiries Pros VendorPanel was easy to implement. It really is like following a bounding ball. Most staff took to it straight away. We had a lot of positive feedback about how easy it it to use. Staff have a whole marketplace at their fingertips so they can always find suppliers. Cons I have nothing negative to say about VendorPanel. Review Source PW Paul W. Procurement & depot Coordinator Government Administration Used the software for: 2+ years ### "CTRC REVIEW" December 9, 2019 5.0 Vendor Panel has assisted this organistaion to transition from a manual tendering process to an electronic one. The system has also provided officers with a simple method of sourcing quotes and evaluating the responses. Pros Ease of use for non procurement officers Cons Reporting/analytics is an additional cost. Would be nice if this was included in the standard subscription. Reason for choosing VendorPanel The reason we decided on Vendor Panel was ease of use, considering non-procurement staff would be required to use the system, and the affordability of the system compared to other products. Review Source MW Malcolm W. Internal Audit Officer Government Administration Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Vendor Panel review" September 23, 2019 4.0 Works very well when seeking quotes from audit panel members. However, we tend to evaluate quotations/tenders offline Pros Very easy to seek quotations from audit panel members Cons Not so staightforward if need to communicate with vendors during a RFQ process (eg, to responsd to a vendor question where all vendors must receive the same info). I like the ample warning messages prior to uploading/publishing material to vendors. Review Source CS Candice S.

I thoroughly enjoy using Vendor Panel every day, I wish all the systems I used were as seamless and effective as this platform! Pros Vendor Panel is incredibly easy to use and logical in its layout and functionality. Cons I genuinely have sat here trying to think of something I don't like about Vendor Panel and can't come up with anything. Review Source NJ Nicole J.

Contracts Officer Government Administration Used the software for: 2+ years ### "General Review" May 21, 2020 5.0 Pros I like how easy this software is to use and is great for anyone (with or without training) to be able to hop on and get things done. Cons I don't like the VendorPanel search bar as you must have the company name exactly right for it to recognize it. i.e. if the company is Bill.Bob it wont show up if you just type Bill Bob Review Source PB Peter B.

Procurement Officer Government Administration Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Department of Agriculture" September 23, 2019 4.0 I would like to see greater usage from this agency. I know that we are currently looking to expand Vendor Panel functions which i hope will create an uptake in usage. Pros Evaluation tools and simultaneous notifications Cons Does not capture the business reach of the suppliers. Search results are based on the location of the business. Reason for choosing VendorPanel It was chosen because of the ability to access the Supply Nation list Review Source MB Michael B.

May 21, 2020 5.0 After a once every two to three year renewal of contractors, it takes little time to use and manage, saving man power. Pros All vendors on panel have been pre-qualified in the area you need. The system is easy to use effectively. The system is low cost. If you regularly call RFQ it saves many hours per call.
