This marks two consecutive evaluations where Coupa has been recognized as a Leader in the Forrester Wave - considered one of the industry’s most thorough evaluations of enterprise purchasing solutions.
"Coupa delivers customer success through high usability and rapid innovation," writes Forrester Vice President, Principal Analyst Duncan Jones in the report. The report also states: "Its library of customers describing measurable benefits from using Coupa is testament to its product and its approach."
The report evaluated 12 of the most significant eProcurement providers on 30 criteria. In addition to the "Leader" designation, Coupa received the highest scores for both the Current Offering and Strategy criteria. Coupa also received the top scores in the Market Share of New Deals (tied) and Reporting sub-criteria.
"We’re proud of Coupa being named a leader for the second time in the Forrester Wave as we think it further validates the real measurable value we are creating with our customers," said Rob Bernshteyn, CEO of Coupa. “We believe this ranking independently confirms that everyone benefits when you listen to your customers, deliver a comprehensive platform, and continually partner to drive real, measurable results. This also confirms that our customers worldwide recognize these as unique Coupa differentiators."
The report also says, "The eProcurement market is growing because more chief procurement officers (CPOs) see it as a key element in addressing their top challenges. They want to enable employees to quickly, safely, and cost effectively buy the goods and services they need, while maintaining overall visibility and control."
