Precoro Review: Price, Features, Pros and Cons
While Precoro lacked native ERP integrations, it made a solid impression with its strong integrations with essential accounting systems, customizable workflows, and a noteworthy Amazon Punch-In feature.
The visual layout can be crowded at times but is still intuitive enough to manage your purchase requisitions smoothly. Precoro is reasonably priced but might come across as pricey compared to its rivals.

- Both punchout and Punch-In catalogs
- Integrations for the top accounting systems e.g. QuickBooks Online, NetSuite, Xero
- Integrations with Power BI and API
- Few native integrations
- Visually cluttered purchase requisitions
- Poor user experience on mobile app
- Small (20 users or less) - $35/user/mo;
- Large (21+ users) - custom
- Developer Precoro
- Client OS Web
- Deployment Cloud Hosted

Punch-In
In addition to PunchOut catalogs powered by Afaxys, Precoro has Amazon’s Punch-In catalog. Punch-In is similar to PunchOut, but the shopping starts on Amazon’s website rather than through the procurement system. Punch-In saves your selected quantities and prices for up to seven days. The benefits of using this system include reduced manual purchase order entries and unapproved Amazon purchases. Punch-In automatically sends invoices to Precoro’s system to eliminate undefined invoices and ensure approval.
