## Tropic Reviews
  ### 1. Effortless Configuration with Stellar Support

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Rich C. | Senior IT Infrastructure Engineer, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 24, 2026

**What do you like best about Tropic?**

I find Tropic very easy to configure and it connects seamlessly with our Microsoft stack. The SSO works great and is simple, which is a big plus for us. The support team was very helpful and kind, especially when we reached out to finish configuring SSO. Their quick response with insightful information is key to improving our operations in different matters. Tropic has been very supportive for our IT department and responsive, helping our company achieve goals more effectively. The initial setup was very easy, which made the transition smoother.

**What do you dislike about Tropic?**

Maybe including automatic creation from users when be rightfully assigned for the authentication system without having to manually create the user in Tropic (SCIM implementation)

**What problems is Tropic solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Tropic is very easy to configure, connects well with our Microsoft stack, and the SSO works great yet simply. The support team is helpful, offering quick responses that improve our operations.

  ### 2. Extremely Helpful Staff and Great Automated Price Benchmarks

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Consumer Goods | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 14, 2026

**What do you like best about Tropic?**

The Tropic staff is extremely helpful, gives detailed insights on what negotiating levers are going to be most effective, and the automated price benchmark tool is great for guidance on where our pricing sits for large contracts.

**What do you dislike about Tropic?**

The workflows and interface can make it challenging to find specific information on historical contracts. For approval flows, it often takes multiple clicks to make what should be simple changes.  

There's also a lack of insight into open requests where you are an approver but the workflow has not reached your step yet, it would be great if there was some option for notifications or a dashboard view of all currently open requests that you are assigned a task in even if that flow hasn't reached your tasks yet.

The price benchmark tool can also be a little inaccurate for certain SaaS that has a lot of SKU variance or very small SaaS solutions.  It would be very helpful if it could give more insight not just on total cost relative to contract size, but specific SKUs and services related to that pricing.

**What problems is Tropic solving and how is that benefiting you?**

For an organization of our size it serves as a SaaS negotiating service to notably reduce operational expenses, our primary contract management system with approvals and auditing, and an invaluable tool for analyzing SaaS spend for our Finance team.

  ### 3. Intuitive Vendor Management with Robust AI

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jake . | Director of Vendor Management, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 10, 2026

**What do you like best about Tropic?**

I find Tropic to be a very intuitive system. My favorite feature is the ability to forward an email with a contract attached, allowing Tropic to ingest the contract, set up the supplier in the system, and use AI to pull out relative data points and prepopulate them in the system. It's really a light touch for me as the director of vendor management. The AI functionality for contract ingestion is very helpful, and I really appreciate its use for supplier intelligence, especially in benchmarking prospective vendors against others in the Tropic ecosystem. The initial setup was very easy, and Hannah Cody was a great partner in helping us with our implementation.

**What do you dislike about Tropic?**

Because we are new to Tropic, we are managing the vendor hygiene for over a 100 vendors right out of the gates, it would be very helpful to be able to make mass updates to multiple vendors as we get them set up in the system for the first time.

**What problems is Tropic solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Tropic helps us manage our vendor pool, track contracts, and create workflows for vendor onboarding. It resolves issues with decentralized vendor management by establishing an approved process involving security, legal, and vendor management, making it easier for business units to onboard vendors.

  ### 4. Excellent SKU-Level Pricing Benchmarks and Clear Peer Comparisons

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 09, 2026

**What do you like best about Tropic?**

I definitely appreciate the fact that when you are looking at benchmarks for pricing, youre able to see SKU level detail and what other companies have paid for the same product. Many times with other tools you only get the big picture where you analyze based on contract total.

**What do you dislike about Tropic?**

Overall Tropic is great, but if I were to be nitpicky, when you add a contract that is a renewal of another contract, there is no quick way to mark the previous term as renewed. You have to go find the original term and mark it as renewed AFTER you add the new contract, and from there label it as renewed by company ABC. I think itd be more convenient if I could just mark an old contract as renewed from the new contract im adding.

**What problems is Tropic solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are able to analyze our savings way more efficiently and we arent going into negotiations blind anymore. The contract analysis and benchmarking is super helpful.

  ### 5. Amazing Product, Even Better People

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Melissa T. | Executive Business Partner, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 14, 2026

**What do you like best about Tropic?**

The team at Tropic: From demo to onboarding to ongoing support, everyone I've interacted with has been top of their game, very kind, and responsive. The application itself is amazing, but the people are the best thing.

**What do you dislike about Tropic?**

I'm hard pressed to come up with something I dislike. There has been 1-2 things that I've said would be nice to have, but the team immediately provided ideas for either how they could customize something or developed a workaround.

**What problems is Tropic solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Tropic is our single source of truth for our vendor (software, contracts, applications, etc.) management program. It has also streamlined and increased the efficiency of our reviews for new and renewing requests.

  ### 6. Elevates SaaS Spend Management with Industry Data Insights

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Shyam B. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 31, 2026

**What do you like best about Tropic?**

I think for us, the data aspect stands out heavily because they have a lot of industry data benchmark comparison with other peers. The SLA is another thing I appreciate because they are quick to get to your questions when it comes to renewal. I like how their industry data benchmark allows you to compare and contrast prices and determine if you're getting the best deal, ensuring value for money. The faster response during negotiation cycles of software renewals speeds things up significantly, making the whole process smoother.

**What do you dislike about Tropic?**

I think this space is moving towards sort of agents now. Where agents automatically sort of take the first pass. So I think still waiting to see when they would launch their own agents.

**What problems is Tropic solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I use Tropic for SaaS spend management, benefiting from procurement negotiations and benchmarking deals with peer data. The fast response for renewals makes negotiations smoother, and it amplifies our procurement and IT teams, keeping us informed and improving overall experience.

  ### 7. Fast Benchmarking, But Needs a Broader Supplier Base

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Capital Markets | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 14, 2026

**What do you like best about Tropic?**

I value Tropic’s rapid benchmarking, which streamlines the review of SaaS agreements. When I consult experts, the responses are concise, actionable, and timely. The combination of faster turnaround and support for complex negotiations—such as Microsoft licensing—adds meaningful value

**What do you dislike about Tropic?**

Some smaller or niche suppliers are not yet represented in Tropic’s database, so expanding vendor coverage would enhance utility.  Additionally, placing frequently used Strategic Sourcing features in a persistent left-hand navigation would improve accessibility and efficiency

**What problems is Tropic solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We use Tropic to review and optimize SaaS pricing, leveraging its benchmarking capabilities, identification of comparable vendors, and support for complex negotiations, including Microsoft licensing. Its rapid response times and data-driven analysis accelerate decision-making and improve commercial outcomes. Tropic also helps level the playing field by giving Sourcing Professionals  access to comprehensive market data traditionally available only to suppliers.

  ### 8. Exceptional Support and Pricing Intelligence, Minor Renewal Hiccups

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Chris G. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 10, 2026

**What do you like best about Tropic?**

I really appreciate Tropic's support team; they have been amazing and incredibly responsive, answering all questions within hours, and often immediately, which is helpful for negotiating contracts. Tropic has provided great pricing intelligence that has saved us actual, hard dollars. Also, the initial setup was very easy.

**What do you dislike about Tropic?**

I wish their renewal process was a little less clunky in terms of submitting renewals. I have to submit renewals separately, almost as a new request instead of submitting under the current contract, so it gets confusing when trying to track where it's submitted and what it's tied to.

**What problems is Tropic solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Tropic helps us benchmark SaaS contracts and software spend, saving actual dollars with great pricing intelligence. Their support team is amazingly responsive, answering queries almost immediately. However, the renewal process feels clunky, as renewals need separate submission, making tracking confusing.

  ### 9. Ensures Top Deals with Robust Approval Workflow

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Skyler G. | Senior Manager, FP&A, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 09, 2026

**What do you like best about Tropic?**

I have full confidence that we aren't getting taken advantage of by software vendors with Tropic. Their supplier intelligence helps us negotiate not just total costs but also payment terms to improve our cash flow. I like how Tropic negotiates on our behalf and has a robust approval workflow. Additionally, the initial setup of Tropic was easy.

**What do you dislike about Tropic?**

Determining the reason for variance between the contract values and the actuals out of ERP can be tricky. It would be helpful if Tropic could pull in the invoice or transaction and auto-suggest reasons for these variances.

**What problems is Tropic solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I use Tropic for procurement, ensuring best deals and an auditable approval process. It gives me confidence against vendor exploitation. Tropic's supplier intelligence aids in negotiating costs and payment terms, enhancing cash flow.

  ### 10. Streamlined Vendor Management and Fantastic Support

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Laura H. | Notary Public and e-Notary Public, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 14, 2026

**What do you like best about Tropic?**

I love the Tropic team. Everybody that I've worked with there has been really great and accommodating, always over delivering. I also really like the layout of the dashboard; I think it's great how I can see everything in one place. It's easy for me to identify any overages in fees and overlaps in vendor use. I appreciate the assistance I get on negotiating discounts with vendors as well. The initial setup was very easy, and we are pretty much through implementation, leveraging it for contract oversight and vendor management as well as negotiations.

**What do you dislike about Tropic?**

I really like everything about Tropic.

**What problems is Tropic solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I love that I can see everything in one place with Tropic, easily identify fee overages and vendor overlap, and get help negotiating discounts.

  ### 11. Perfect Procurement Partner with Custom Workflows

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Christian C. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 09, 2026

**What do you like best about Tropic?**

What stands out to me about Tropic is the customization ability on approval workflows. I can have as many or as few as I want, which is really flexible. I also appreciate that Tropic does some negotiating for me, which saves a lot of time. Additionally, it saves time for the accounting team since they don't have to manually check an Excel file every day for renewals, and it helps track budget and spend against the budget.

**What do you dislike about Tropic?**

Nothing

**What problems is Tropic solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I use Tropic to track procurement and contract renewals, saving time by automating notifications. It helps us stay on budget and avoid manually checking. I also appreciate the customization in approval workflows and the negotiation features that save a lot of time.

  ### 12. Effortless SaaS Procurement with Proactive Support and Transparent Pricing

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** RajKumar A. | Customer Success Director (Amazon, Walmart Advertising) - Retail Media Management, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 04, 2025

**What do you like best about Tropic?**

Tropic streamlines the entire SaaS procurement process, making it both simple and transparent. I appreciate how the platform brings together benchmark pricing insights, vendor negotiation support, and centralized contract management in a single, easy to use interface. It has saved us countless hours that would have been spent going back and forth with vendors, and it provides the data driven assurance we need when renewing or purchasing software. The account managers are proactive, responsive, and truly feel like an extension of our procurement team.

**What do you dislike about Tropic?**

While Tropic does a great job of streamlining much of the procurement process, the onboarding experience can initially feel a bit overwhelming because of the sheer number of features and data points presented. Occasionally, vendor responses or negotiations may take longer than anticipated, as Tropic serves as an intermediary. However, after becoming accustomed to the platform and its communication flow, these challenges generally become less noticeable.

**What problems is Tropic solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Tropic has been instrumental in bringing much-needed structure, transparency, and efficiency to our SaaS procurement and renewal processes. In the past, individual departments managed vendor contracts separately, which often resulted in overlapping tools, missed renewal dates, and inconsistent pricing. With Tropic, everything is now centralized and providing us with a single source of truth for all contracts, clear insight into our spending, and access to benchmark data that supports more effective negotiations. As a result, we've managed to lower our software expenses and free up valuable time for our operations and finance teams, allowing them to concentrate on more strategic initiatives rather than tracking down renewals.

  ### 13. Tropic Has Streamlined Our Procurement and Saved Us Real Money

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Sean C. | Accountant, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 23, 2025

**What do you like best about Tropic?**

What I find most valuable about Tropic is how straightforward they make managing software purchases and renewals. Their pricing benchmarks provide us with clear insight into what constitutes a fair deal, and their negotiation team has been excellent at securing better terms for us without requiring endless back-and-forth. The procurement and invoice matching tools are also intuitive, helping us stay organized with minimal effort. Thanks to Tropic, we've been able to streamline our P2P process and avoid the need to build a full PO system, which has saved us significant time and internal resources. The main benefits are definitely the cost savings and the overall simplicity. For instance, on a recent HRIS purchase, the vendor’s initial offer was about 20% above the market rate, but using Tropic’s benchmarks, we managed to negotiate a 30% discount. Beyond just saving money, Tropic has made the entire procurement process much easier. Renewals, invoice matching, and contract tracking are all more efficient, and our team now spends far less time following up with vendors or managing contracts manually.

**What do you dislike about Tropic?**

There isn’t much to dislike about Tropic, but one area for improvement is the OCR accuracy when uploading and scanning contracts. We also use Tropic to store non-SaaS agreements like contractor contracts, NDAs, and DPAs, and sometimes the system flags auto-renewals incorrectly or misreads certain terms. That said, this is pretty common with OCR technology, it’s great but not perfect. The upside is that Tropic’s customer success and operations teams are very responsive. They also do another round of review and fix any OCR errors quickly, which makes the overall experience smooth and reliable.

**What problems is Tropic solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Tropic helps us solve several challenges around SaaS management, procurement, and contract tracking. Before Tropic, it was hard to know if we were getting fair pricing or keeping up with all our renewals. Now, their benchmark data gives us real visibility into market pricing, and their negotiation team helps us secure better deals with minimal effort. We also use Tropic to store and manage all types of agreements, not just SaaS, but also contractor agreements, NDAs, and DPAs. The built-in OCR and contract insights make it easy to track renewals, terms, and key details in one place. Even though the OCR isn’t perfect (which is expected), their team is super responsive and helps correct any errors quickly. Overall, Tropic has helped us save money, stay organized, and simplify our procurement process, all without needing a complex PO system or large operations team.

  ### 14. Tropic: Effective SaaS Management with Outstanding Support

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Denise C. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 14, 2026

**What do you like best about Tropic?**

I like that the team behind Tropic is always very helpful. The software continually evolves to meet needs that we don't even know we have yet, which is pretty impressive. I find the benchmarking and negotiating by the Tropic team valuable, and the use of the workflows is beneficial for us. The setup was very easy, and we received great help from the Tropic support team.

**What do you dislike about Tropic?**

I think some of the integration with the invoice matching that we would like to have.

**What problems is Tropic solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I use Tropic to keep all SaaS contracts visible, track expiration dates, and get help with negotiating by providing benchmarks.

  ### 15. Great price benchmarking, tools for SaaS management, optimizing spend, ensuring competitive pricing

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Cameron D. | Director of Procurement, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 24, 2025

**What do you like best about Tropic?**

Great insights into saas benchmarking.  Robust dataset.  Business team is responsive and very attentive and works hard to make sure I'm getting value out of the platform.  It has paid for itself several times over as we've been able to leverage the insights to obtain better pricing.

**What do you dislike about Tropic?**

Can be a bit slow to get data on new applications but that's just the nature of the beast.  With AI, things are changing so quickly and new tools coming out so frequently and we like to try them all so there's a decent number of new tools where we haven't been able to access benchmarking data, but nobody is going to have it unfortunately.  Not a dig on Tropic, just a general frustration of the industry.

**What problems is Tropic solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Insights into SaaS pricing and negotiation tactics.

  ### 16. Streamlined Vendor Management with Intuitive UI

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Julia S. | Accounting Analyst Intern, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 09, 2026

**What do you like best about Tropic?**

I love that Tropic makes managing vendors a lot easier and more organized. The NetSuite matching feature is extremely helpful for us since our company uses NetSuite. I definitely appreciate the UI of Tropic; it's very clean, intuitive, modern, not cluttered, and easy to navigate!

**What do you dislike about Tropic?**

Nothing yet!

**What problems is Tropic solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I use Tropic to manage vendors, making it easier and more organized. The NetSuite matching feature is extremely helpful since we use NetSuite.

  ### 17. Seamless Integration, but Needs More Customizable Workflows

**Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Sara L. | Project Manager, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 28, 2025

**What do you like best about Tropic?**

Ironclad integration works well, Tropic has been a relatively seamless implementation in our org despite the multitude of tools we were using pre-Tropic to manage procurement.

Workflows are easy to build, the functionality behind Rules and conditionality is hugely necessary.

Support team has been quick to respond and helpful.

**What do you dislike about Tropic?**

There's certain fields (estimated spend, request type) that aren't customizable or removable. Would love the ability to completely build a custom workflow. There's also a lot of confusion over everything starting as a certain type of workflow, and then switching into another depending on Tropic's level of involvement with negotiation. I think being able to make the workflows completely 100% customizable would be the most useful development.

There's a lot to manage between purchase categories, assigning them appropriately in Criteria, and then linking purchase workflows to specific categories. To me it makes the most sense for that all to live under one function: build the intake, the workflow, and get it live all in one settings section.

**What problems is Tropic solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Tropic is our go-to resource when requesting any spend of company dollars. We are saving a great deal of time with Tropic's automatic notifications, custom intake, and custom workflows that would've otherwise been spend with us manually messaging users guides and next steps. We are able to stay proactive on renewals, and all spend requests are being consolidated under one tool

**Official Response from Heather Quitos:**

> Hi Sara - we appreciate your feedback! It's great to hear that you're saving time and now able to stay proactive with your renewals. Your additional feedback about needing more customization is important. It will be shared with our product team as we're actively working to build an easier-to-navigate platform.  

  ### 18. Helpful for Managing Large Vendor Lists and Streamlining Workflows

**Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Financial Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 24, 2025

**What do you like best about Tropic?**

Helps make vendor management manageable especially once the count of vendors starts to get unruly (50-100+). Keeps things organized and helps manage the workflow of keeping up with and validating vendor expenses.

**What do you dislike about Tropic?**

ROI is tough to evaluate. The time saving is clear, but how much are you willing to pay to keep costs more organized, is tough to justify. If there is budget for a tool like this, it's definitely worth it. But if you are getting it to help manage and reduce expenses, it might just be an extra cost in the wrong direction.

**What problems is Tropic solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We have over 100 vendors so it acts as a source of truth to easily search for and plan vendor expenses. It allows us to be more proactive with vendor planning and helps us to not fly blind. It is a good system of record for all vendor information. Thinking of it like a CRM for vendors instead of customers once vendor counts start to get high.

  ### 19. Improved Negotiations but Needs User-Friendly Interface

**Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Sylvia  R.

**Reviewed Date:** October 24, 2025

**What do you like best about Tropic?**

I appreciate Tropic's support team; they were pretty nice and offered good assistance when I needed help setting up for the first time. While Tropic did not necessarily solve direct problems for me, I find it valuable in giving me ideas about vendor flexibility, which has aided my preparation for negotiation meetings with new vendors. Although I initially struggled with understanding how to use features like the supply intelligence part, I recognize its usefulness and potential benefits, especially in the context of negotiations.

**What do you dislike about Tropic?**

I find the initial setup and user interface of Tropic to be not very user-friendly, particularly for new users like me trying to initiate a search for new vendors. The dashboard design is confusing, with certain elements like truck performance on the first page not making sense. Additionally, I struggle with understanding how to effectively use certain features such as the supply intelligence part, needing assistance to do so. More clarity in benchmarking and pricing details for products would greatly enhance transparency and improve my experience. Finally, the main page layout feels cluttered and is somewhat confusing, which doesn't provide an intuitive user experience.

**What problems is Tropic solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I use Tropic to understand vendor flexibility, aiding my negotiations with new vendors.

  ### 20. Outstanding Support and Custom Workflows Make Tropic a Standout

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Aleksandra G. | AR manager, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 24, 2025

**What do you like best about Tropic?**

What I value most about Tropic is their team. I have never encountered such helpful consultants during the implementation phase, and even more impressively, the Tropic team continues to be supportive after implementation is complete. When we are negotiating purchases and facing tight deadlines, if the requestor is unresponsive, the team goes out of their way to reach out to anyone necessary to ensure we close deals on time and retain our negotiated discounts. Another aspect I really appreciate about Tropic is the ability to create custom workflows for different types of purchases. I also find the request process straightforward and user-friendly, which makes the platform easy for me to use.

**What do you dislike about Tropic?**

I find the supplier view unhelpful, as what matters most to me is being able to see the contracts right away. However, contracts are not the first thing that appears. Additionally, I dislike that there is no option to set mandatory renewal requests for perpetual contracts. In my situation, I had to change the contract type and add a fake renewal date just to trigger renewal reminders, which feels like an unnecessary workaround.

**What problems is Tropic solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Previously, we struggled without a single source of truth for our contracts, and storing them in different places made it a real challenge to find what we needed. Searching for contracts used to be a nightmare. With Tropic, everything is now organized and easy to access.

**Official Response from Heather Quitos:**

> Aleksandra, thank you for your feedback about your Tropic experience! We're so glad to hear you enjoy working with our team and that you're able to navigate the request process easily. 

We'll have your account team reach out to you directly regarding the feedback around mandatory renewal requests for perpetual contracts. We may have some solutions that can help!

  ### 21. Solid Contract Management with Need for Improved Usability

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Mony N. | Senior Accountant

**Reviewed Date:** October 23, 2025

**What do you like best about Tropic?**

I really appreciate Tropic’s functionality in terms of solving contract management and negotiation processes, making my workflow more efficient. Tropic has been a key tool for about three to four years for me, facilitating requests for renewals and the integration of new tools seamlessly. Its capability to provide data-backed price benchmarking is incredibly beneficial when entering a new market without clear spending directions, effectively allowing me to validate whether proposals I receive are good deals. I particularly find the invoice matching feature to work exceptionally well when contracts are set up correctly, providing me with precise matching of contract information. The system definitely brings a lot of value overall, making it an asset for our organization. Given these positive experiences, I'm inclined to continue using Tropic, and I would rate it highly between an eight and nine for recommending it to a friend or colleague.

**What do you dislike about Tropic?**

I find the dashboard a bit challenging to follow and think it could be simplified for easier navigation. Also, the OCR functionality isn't reading contracts correctly, failing to extract the correct information which leads to issues in tasks like invoice matching. There's also a problem with the system inaccurately categorizing contracts, such as treating consulting agreements with auto-renewal as SaaS contracts. It would be beneficial if the platform could better differentiate between vendor types, such as SaaS, consultant, or marketing vendors.

**What problems is Tropic solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I use Tropic for contract management and negotiations, helping evaluate spending and proposal deals with data-backed price benchmarks, and easing contract renewals.

  ### 22. Helpful Support, Insightful SaaS Price Benchmarking, Streamlining Contract Management

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Financial Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 23, 2026

**What do you like best about Tropic?**

Price benchmarking, handling negotiations, helpful support

**What do you dislike about Tropic?**

Not straightforward to setting up request workflows and there could be better educational materials. AI could be better utilized to automatically create contracts based off of uploaded materials.

**What problems is Tropic solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Solving vendor management -- I can negotiate more efficiently using their data, and I can easily see what renewals are upcoming. It should also streamline intake.

  ### 23. Unified Spend Management with Robust Features, But Steep Learning Curve

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**What do you like best about Tropic?**

Tropic provides a single, unified platform for managing non-headcount spend, enforcing an efficient review process involving Finance, Legal, and Security, and driving cost optimization through competitive vendor pricing.

**What do you dislike about Tropic?**

The platform offers extensive features and functionality, which can be overwhelming at first and may require time for new users to become proficient, particularly when navigating approvals or interpreting contract data.

**What problems is Tropic solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Tropic streamlines the procurement process by centralizing vendor and contract management, eliminating manual and fragmented purchasing workflows. It ensures Finance, Legal, and Security are aligned throughout the purchasing lifecycle, improving compliance and visibility. This results in greater cost control, optimized vendor pricing, and significant time savings for budget owners.

  ### 24. Procurement Analyst

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 04, 2026

**What do you like best about Tropic?**

I like how quickly I can get benchmarking to use in negotiation

**What do you dislike about Tropic?**

While there are a lot of functions within the platform, that can be challenging as it isn't always intuitive where to go for what

**What problems is Tropic solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It's giving me market validation of pricing that I can use in contract negotiations

  ### 25. Tropic has become an essential company tool, and product updates keep it relevant.

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Telecommunications | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 18, 2024

**What do you like best about Tropic?**

Tropic's contract tracking tools have made a huge impact on our business.  When onboarding, we quickly learned the extent to which our contracts and payments were decentralized.  We have been able to organize, consolidate, and control spending to a much greater degree.

The real assets of Tropic are its employees.  Everyone we have encountered is extremely capable, helpful, and kind.  Our success managers have felt like part of our team, and Tropic's commercial executives have saved us more than we anticipated.

**What do you dislike about Tropic?**

When Tropic makes updates to its platform, it can cause a bit of confusion because of the need to edit preexisting contracts and adjust their details/fields to align with the new updates.  Also, we have submitted multiple feature requests that are minor in nature, and Tropic has not implemented them.

**What problems is Tropic solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Spend management, contract centralization, and commercial negotiations.

**Official Response from Heather Quitos:**

> Wow - it's great to see that Tropic has become an essential tool in your company's tech stack! Centralizing your spend in one place is no easy task. We're thrilled to hear that our team has helped you achieve efficiencies in your contract management.

We are releasing enhancements on a regular basis and are continuing to identify ways to make any transitions as easy as possible for you. I encourage you to keep sharing your feedback with your account team or our support team. Our product team does take note of every customer request and will work it into our roadmap as priorities allow. Thanks again for your partnership!

  ### 26. Renewal Insights and Benchmarking Made Easy

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 28, 2026

**What do you like best about Tropic?**

• Renewal insights and benchmarking
• Easy tracking of renewals month by month

**What do you dislike about Tropic?**

Sometimes, auto-renewal language does not get captured correctly

**What problems is Tropic solving and how is that benefiting you?**

• Shows what’s coming up for renewal month by month
• Benchmarking insights

  ### 27. Tropic is great and getting better!

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 24, 2025

**What do you like best about Tropic?**

I find Tropic insightful and intuitive to use. The platform takes a more holistic approach to benchmarking compared to previous providers where benchmarks were more ad-hoc and didn't feel like they were tying into a broader picture of our software ecosystem.

**What do you dislike about Tropic?**

Tropic has been innovating very quickly, which at times has lead to features disappearing and being replaced by others just as i got used to the previous feature.

**What problems is Tropic solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Tropic is providing benchmarking and insights and a consolidated view of our SaaS supplier ecosystem. This allows my team to be proactive and ensure best in class pricing as often as possible, not to mention we go into negotiations empowered by the great insights that Tropic provide.

  ### 28. Business must have

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 30, 2025

**What do you like best about Tropic?**

Our rep is fantastic and we always receive amazing support. The flexibility with the use of the tool has helped our business dramatically. Approval workflows ensure we have proper documentation of all large purchases.

**What do you dislike about Tropic?**

Some aspects of the workflows are more cumbersome than necessary (no notifications, difficulty in assigning out tasks dynamically when complexity is involved) as well as stale user information occurring.

**What problems is Tropic solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Our primary focus has been on vendor and spend management. Over time, we have become much more proactive with renewals and better prepared for negotiations. On the financial side, we now enjoy increased transparency into our spending, which means we are no longer caught off guard by unexpected expenses.

  ### 29. Extremely happy with my purchase of Tropic

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 11, 2025

**What do you like best about Tropic?**

I love that I can see everything in one place. I was living in multiple systems before tropic. I also like that I have gotten time back in my day to work on more strategic projects. I love the insights I have for vendors and knowing that there are a team of people supporting me. I am a team of one and the team of SME's is really useful to have. I use Tropic every day. The integrations were super simple to set up and when I need to make edits, those are also very simplistic. My implementation went well, I had someone with me the whole time and Tropic does a lot of the work which makes the onboarding much easier.

**What do you dislike about Tropic?**

I wish there was a way to upload all of my additional vendor detail fields into the system with a csv instead of having to populate each manually. I also wish I was able to build custom reports. But with every product release, my list of wants is getting smaller.

**What problems is Tropic solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Tropic is solving automation, simplicity, and insight. Having just one system has saved me a ton of time with reporting and keeping everything in order. Insights have allowed me to be better at my job with less money spent. Gartner is completely out of budget for me and this fills that gap. Insight into all of the spend without having to use excel to build reporting to work from has really been great. Cross functional integrations saves accounting, procurement and legal time also. Full visibility for all

  ### 30. Effortless SaaS Renewals and Competitive Pricing with Tropic

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 23, 2025

**What do you like best about Tropic?**

Tropic helps us stay on top of our SaaS renewals, making it easier to ensure we are getting the most competitive quotes available. The platform offers price benchmarks, allowing us to compare our quotes with those received by other companies. Additionally, Tropic's in-house procurement team negotiates directly on pricing for higher-value SaaS deals.

**What do you dislike about Tropic?**

I have no complaints—it's great! The interface is very easy to use, which makes the whole experience enjoyable.

**What problems is Tropic solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We do not have a dedicated in-house procurement team, so procurement responsibilities are handled by our Controllors. Tropic simplifies the process, allowing the controllorship team to oversee procurement from a higher-level perspective. This enables them to concentrate more on their core controllership duties.

  ### 31. Good tool with huge potential

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 24, 2025

**What do you like best about Tropic?**

Ability to configure and customize workflows. Also the benchmarks features are valuable

**What do you dislike about Tropic?**

The UI could be more intuitive which sometimes adds friction in the task completion.

**What problems is Tropic solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Having utilized Tropic for more than a year, we find it to be a valuable and centralizing tool for our operations. It has successfully helped us establish a clear and consistent process for vendor selection, onboarding, and contract renewal.

The initial configuration phase, which was managed entirely by the Tropic team, was a favorable and smooth experience. We have been particularly pleased with how Tropic has standardized our vendor processes and created a single repository for all our contracts. We also frequently leverage their benchmarking information to inform our decisions.

The main areas for improvement are centered around configuration and usability: we would appreciate more flexibility in configuring the native workflows. Additionally, the software would benefit greatly from broader integrations with our other tools and a more intuitive UI redesign to enhance the user experience.

Overall, our level of satisfaction with Tropic remains good.

  ### 32. Much-Improved Platform and full featured, But Can Be Confusing for Non-Contract Managers

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 23, 2025

**What do you like best about Tropic?**

I truly appreciate the improvements the platform has made over the past few years. Having used Tropic for several years, it has become an essential tool for managing contracts, approvals, and the overall approval workflow.

**What do you dislike about Tropic?**

This tool is useful for anyone involved in the contract management process, whether you are managing contracts or participating in the workflow. However, it may be confusing for those who are not directly engaged in contract management.

**What problems is Tropic solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Contract management and central source of truth for this informaiton and data.  Approval workflows and documentation of our contracts and vendors is very helpful.

  ### 33. Tropic- Implementation

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Maria S. | Corporate Controller, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 18, 2025

**What do you like best about Tropic?**

The thing that I have loved about Tropic is that they have so many AI features that have helped provide insights into our spending that has translated into savings. Additionally, it is very easy to use and customize workflows. Finally, we were able to consolidate 3 different procurement processes into one tool.

**What do you dislike about Tropic?**

The only thing that I have disliked about Tropic is that at first the workflows were a bit clunky so we had to customize quite a bit of the steps. But once we did that, things are running efficiently.

**What problems is Tropic solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The problem that we are trying to solve for is having disparate procurement solutions that didn't focus on ensuring that we are getting the best price that we can. Tropic got us to have one consistent procurement process and we are using the AI insights to ensure that we are getting the best price!

  ### 34. Great for Team Communication, Needs Better Document Organization

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Henry K. | accounting associate, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 23, 2025

**What do you like best about Tropic?**

User friendly and easy to communicate with other teams

**What do you dislike about Tropic?**

Documents can be all over the place and hard to find

**What problems is Tropic solving and how is that benefiting you?**

They're trying to clean up the view to make it less overwhelming and easy to search for specific documents

  ### 35. Tropic is a gamechanger - Procurement Processes made easy

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Warehousing | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 07, 2025

**What do you like best about Tropic?**

Tropic allows our organization to have one source of truth for all of our software contracts. It also is like a virtual assistant helping us monitor and react to renewal reminders and offers key insights when negotiating contracts. I recommend this software to anyone who wants an easy to use tool and great customer service.

**What do you dislike about Tropic?**

I would love to see Tropic more integrated with microsoft products. I would like to be able to automatically create meeting reminders, teams chats and other activities with ease. I would also like to be able to connnect with SAP. Hopefully this feature will be in the roadmap!

**What problems is Tropic solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Tropic solves a few different problems for me, being my source of truth, renewal reminders, price benchmarking, negotiation insights and many more.

  ### 36. Valuable SaaS Insights, Needs Smoother Integrations

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Francisco M. | Sr IT Manager, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 24, 2025

**What do you like best about Tropic?**

It provides decent insights on saas contracts and negotiation tactics

**What do you dislike about Tropic?**

It overall works well, could have more seamless integrations into other systems

**What problems is Tropic solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Providing pricing insights on saas spend

**Official Response from Heather Quitos:**

> Francisco, thank you for your feedback! We appreciate that you're getting actionable insights for your purchases. I encourage you to share feedback with your account team on specific integrations that you are hoping to see; we also have an API that may be useful to connect your tools, depending on your needs. 

  ### 37. Valuable Insights and Negotiation Tools

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 23, 2025

**What do you like best about Tropic?**

The supplier intelligence module offers valuable insights, and the contract negotiation features are also quite useful.

**What do you dislike about Tropic?**

Since they do not integrate with our SSO, it makes using their shadow spend analyses quite challenging.

**What problems is Tropic solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Bringing together our purchasing processes across our global organization has streamlined our experience.

  ### 38. Great experience with Tropic!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 23, 2025

**What do you like best about Tropic?**

I like how responsive the Tropic team has been in terms of setting up the product and flagging anything that needs our attention in upcoming months/weeks.

**What do you dislike about Tropic?**

I think the software has been great so far.

**What problems is Tropic solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Tropic is helping us ensure that our high expense vendor contracts are negotiated and priced reasonably.

  ### 39. Immediately impactful & versatile, great Customer Service

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Tanner J. | Senior accountant, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 07, 2025

**What do you like best about Tropic?**

On October 1st, my company started using Tropic. By November 15, with the help of the Tropic support team, we had designed an entirely customized and somewhat complicated workflow in time for 2025 Contract renewals. We had never used POs before and Tropic was the perfect fit. 

Apart from the platform itself, which I find incredibly intuitive and versatile - and the fact it completely changed how we manage Contracts - my favorite thing about Tropic has honestly been the Customer Service. Probably the best support I've ever received, beginning from our introductory meeting, then onboarding and training support, to just day-to-day issues that come up. I feel confident that competent people are handling what I need in a professional but personable way. 

They build trust.

**What do you dislike about Tropic?**

We use the platform slightly differently I think that some of their other customers, and a credit to the versatility of their platform to be able to accommodate a critical change we needed - at the same time, other areas are (currently) more cumbersome for us because of that - though I suspect may not require major changes, it's just waiting for that update one day. My examples would be reports, which I believe they are in the process of updating, and better filters. 

We use ALOT of tasks and having better filters would honestly really help me manage a large volume of requests at once, which is what's happening now. Being able to filter by Approver (not just Department or Requestor) - things like that. 

Our other issue is we are driven by Netsuite class (not Department) - and Tropic is completely organized around Department. I think if they continue to expand, they will be even more versatile.

**What problems is Tropic solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Contract management and purchase orders, renewals

**Official Response from Heather Quitos:**

> Tanner, thank you for your positive feedback! We strive to put our customers first and are glad to see that you're feeling the support of our team. I've shared your feedback with our team, particularly around how you're using NetSuite - and encourage you to continue sharing your feedback (as you have been). The more we can learn about your needs and use cases, the better we can improve our platform. 

Thanks again!

  ### 40. User-Friendly Interface and Workflow Edits, But Needs AI Integration

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 27, 2025

**What do you like best about Tropic?**

Love Tropic's easy-to-use interface, ability to make edits to workflows, and notifications to keep the procurement process SLAs.

**What do you dislike about Tropic?**

Wish there was a way for me to link Tropic to Chat GPT/other AI tools so I could build out an agent to give me a weekly agenda/breakdown of where contracts are in the review process.

**What problems is Tropic solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Provides me with relevant industry benchmarks and expert guidance to help support my strategic negotiations.

  ### 41. Good experience overall, don't always think Tropic's involvement in contract negotiation is valuable

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 01, 2025

**What do you like best about Tropic?**

The seamlessness of the platform itself. It's intuitive and the reminders are helpful in staying on top of upcoming renewals

**What do you dislike about Tropic?**

I'm not necessarily a fan of a "middle-man" in my contract negotiations. Sometimes it's worked in our favour, sometimes it hasn't. I prefer to manage my own contract renewals

**What problems is Tropic solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Staying on top of different timelines for renewals across the entirety of our tech stack, which is extensive and often hard to manage

  ### 42. Honest Review, Centralized Contract Tracking Is Great, Price Comparisons Can Take A Bit To Come Back

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Consumer Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 23, 2025

**What do you like best about Tropic?**

Centralized place to track new and existing contracts

**What do you dislike about Tropic?**

Sometimes price comparisons can take a bit to come back

**What problems is Tropic solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Great place for centralized contract management for existing and new

  ### 43. Easy to use, customizable Procurement platform with a wealth of capabilities

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Kyle H. | VP, Global Procurement, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 03, 2024

**What do you like best about Tropic?**

The most helpful thing about Tropic is the support of the product & success teams. They take feedback very seriously, and it feels like they are building the platform around your needs (in a good way). It's a very intuitive platform that can adds value across in multiple areas across the Procurment spectrum (spend management, requisition/workflow, renewal planning, contract management), but doesn't force you to do everything at once.

**What do you dislike about Tropic?**

There's still room for improvement with the functionality & ease of use. There's always a way to do something in Tropic, but occassionally, it takes more steps or is more roundabout than it should be. The weakest area of the platform is contract management and it doesn't have a lot of the same functionality as more traditional CLM platforms.

**What problems is Tropic solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Tropic adds controls & visibility into vendor spend, and allows Procurement to be as much or as little involved as is approriate for each individual company.

  ### 44. Hot Tropic

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Ginette B. | Senior Accountant, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 22, 2024

**What do you like best about Tropic?**

The product has been very helpful in improving our procurement process and allowing us to track our spend. Also, Support, during implementation and after go-live, has been amazing! They have been very helpful on improving our use of the product and answering all of our questions. Shoutout Kelly Lytle for being a rockstar!!

**What do you dislike about Tropic?**

There are some aspects of the product that are still a work in progress. Currently, there are some items that require manual work arounds or there are items that cannot be edited (e.g. questions in the request form). Also, it is not possible to approve requests in Slack or email, which can lead to confusion on the approvers end. However, they are contanstly improving the product and accepting our feedback with grace!

**What problems is Tropic solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It is helping us keep track of our spend. It also increases visibility for IT/Security and Finance on what is being purchased through the organization.

**Official Response from Heather Quitos:**

> Hi Ginette, thanks for your feedback! It's great to hear that you're seeing improvements to your procurement process by tracking your spend in Tropic. Great news - we recently released functionality to approve requests by Slack! We'll have Kelly follow up to show you the ins and outs. 

Thanks again and continue to share your feedback with our team so we can continue to improve Tropic for you.  

  ### 45. Tropic Process

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Nicole R. | AP Specialist, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 04, 2024

**What do you like best about Tropic?**

I really like how Tropic has people who are very help. Josh Small has helped us a lot with getting set up into Tropic which has been a big help. I also like how everything in in one place for Tropic. It provides excel sheets to help pull data quickly out of Tropic and makes processing data a lot faster.

**What do you dislike about Tropic?**

One thing I dislike abount Tropic is that I wish we were able to pull data out of Tropic that we can easily export into our accounting software so we can process the subscription invoices faster.

**What problems is Tropic solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Tropic is solving the problem that we have with our team just purchasing new Subscriptions while we may already have a subscription similar to the newly bought product.

  ### 46. Seamless Experience

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Nhat V. | FP&A Analyst, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 24, 2025

**What do you like best about Tropic?**

I like that Tropic allows NetSuite integration which can flow the expenses into Tropic. It's helpful because I can keep track of the new vendors and expenses. It also reminds me to create new supplier profile in Tropic.

**What do you dislike about Tropic?**

Tropic is still missing customization feature for contracts. For example: if I were to upload contractors profile, then I would need an area to enter Rate instead of Total Contract Value.

**What problems is Tropic solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Tropic is creating a seamless procurement experience for Transfr which is a huge lift

  ### 47. The tool is very user-friendly, well organized and beneficial to our entire organization.

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Samuel F. | Associate Director of Finance, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 19, 2025

**What do you like best about Tropic?**

The user-friendly tool, email reminders of renewal, the cost savings during our renewals.

**What do you dislike about Tropic?**

I understand turnover but we have had multiple representatives over the past year.

**What problems is Tropic solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Having entire viability of contracts at a glance, overspending.

  ### 48. Very Useful Tool

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Internet | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 11, 2024

**What do you like best about Tropic?**

It's a good platform as a SaaS CLM or whatever other types of contracts you might want to enter as well.  A really cool feature of Tropic that I've found quite useful is the Supplier Intelligence feature, which in the most simplest terms, provides benchmark pricing and other interesting market data and negotiating levers which, depending on the application you are looking for, can be really powerful in assisting with your negotiations for acquisition or renewal terms.  It's very easy to use and when you have an issue or notice something that is off or needs to be fixed, the support team is very fast to respond and address or fix whatever issue you have noticed.

**What do you dislike about Tropic?**

The level of data in the Supplier Intelligence tool is a work in progress.  Obviously, data is basd on the number of current clients using any given tool, so until Tropic both builds its customer base and/or finds a way to get market data from third parties that aren't clients, this feature will always  have its limitations.  When we started with Tropic it supported integration with our SSO client, Azure AD, to be able to pull usage data on various platforms, but it stopped supporting that integration, so we lost that functionality.

**What problems is Tropic solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We use Tropic primarily to manage SaaS renewals, pretty much exclusively.  Other than the Market Intelligence feature, we mostly got it because we liked that you have the ability to create workflows for different processes that you might use the platform for, so it gave us a much more formal, automated, and documented way to do all of our renewals.  It's also proven to be a better contract management tool than what we were using previously.

  ### 49. One software to rule them all

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Marketing and Advertising | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** December 04, 2024

**What do you like best about Tropic?**

Tropic is a fantastic tool for tracking a great number of services. The implementation team walks you through its capabilities, and the set up of it's robust conrols you may need, making integration as painless as possible. With visual workflows to track your approval matrix, and a lot of support. Then, when you are looking for new services to add, Tropic also suggests average prices, and helps you to compare similar services. Once you have your list of services used, you can also then report on these within the platform.
From having to overlook these services frequently, Tropic has made this much easier to manage as you are promted as things are coming up for renewal.
In summary, very easy with lots of great support.

**What do you dislike about Tropic?**

Any 'issues' we have encountered have been met with immediate support & training.

**What problems is Tropic solving and how is that benefiting you?**

-Spend Management, being able to track these in one platform, across departments is empowering.
-Procurement is helpful. Identifying similar products already used. 
-Renewal timing. Never miss a renewal again! Ease of platform helps drive timing.
-Vendor management is imparative to a whole picture.

  ### 50. Unbelievable product!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Patrick F. | Director of Finance, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 13, 2025

**What do you like best about Tropic?**

Tropic has completely transformed our approval flow! It's interface is intuitive and easy to use.  If any issues do arrise, customer support is very helpful and knowledgable as well.

**What do you dislike about Tropic?**

I have no dislikes. Tropic has been a terrific product from day 1

**What problems is Tropic solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Our business needed an effictive way to manage our spend, organize our procurement flow, and maintain our contracts in one centralized location
