Tropic vs. Vendr

Only Tropic offers unbiased, self-serve price benchmarks that give you a true comparison of your price compared to your peer set. We don’t have deals with software suppliers, so we’re not incentivized to push you to buy from certain companies, and our negotiation playbooks are written by Tropic experts (not the supplier).

“When we need [software] recommendations, you don't want [your provider] to be financially incentivized to push some other company on us, you know?” - Tropic customer

All of Tropic’s R&D goes towards improving our product – not towards building a marketplace. We’re constantly building new functionality that will meet a finance and procurement team at whatever stage of maturity they’re at and scale with them, while continuously controlling and reducing spend along the way.

Tropic has invested in building robust ERP/accounting integrations to give finance leaders visibility into their spend, helping them become strategic advisors to their business.

‍

Tropic’s ERP integrations ensure all transactions are properly and accurately tracked, supporting variance analysis between contracted and actual spend, spend monitoring, budgeting and forecasting.

In just 4 weeks, Tropic’s team can transform your procurement process with reliable software, data, and services before your next negotiation. We take a consultative, hands-on approach, sharing best practices and insights to help you design the procurement process that is best suited for your organization.

Tropic will supercharge your teams’ effectiveness with custom pricing benchmarks, negotiation plans, and 1:1 coaching from our expert negotiators. We’re your partner when it comes to getting better outcomes, not just price. We’ll take care of all the back-and-forth communications, document collection, and negotiating, while you get time back to focus on your next big project.

[Tropic] knew the solution. They had a good handle on what the market is and they didn't just care about the bottom line.” - Tropic Customer
