We also evaluate other areas, like analytics, configurability, supplier portal, technology, and services. Coupa is easy to use and has significantly increased the efficiency of our AP team. The main functional categories of I2P are invoicing, payment and financing. In this Spend Matters PRO post we’ll give readers insights from our detailed I2P SolutionMap analysis of SAP Ariba and Coupa, and we’ll comment on each one’s relative strengths in a head-to-head comparison.įor readers who are not subscribers to our PRO analyst content or SolutionMap Insider data, here’s a preview: While compliance is a key feature, there are other capabilities that we analyze like: invoicing (capturing / digitization, validations & approvals, supplier onboarding & invoice collaboration), payments (payment processing, p-cards), financing (dynamic discounting / SCF), platform (integration, configurability, globalization), supplier network (or portal), and services (implementation). Overall, the I2P solutions category is a market that has many specific government compliance requirements at the country level, and even at the state and local levels when handling issues like taxes. We know these solutions’ capabilities from doing demos and evaluating their functionality and customer feedback for our Spend Matters’ SolutionMap vendor rankings. Global invoice-to-pay (I2P) solution providers include SAP Ariba and Coupa - our two contenders for today’s head-to-head analysis.
