More Time for Research: The Lab Supply Marketplace for Busy Scientists

“Before ZAGENO entered our workflow, the labyrinth of lab supply procurement was navigated by a lone central coordinator. The process was cumbersome, time-consuming, and often led us down narrow paths with limited options. But with ZAGENO, the landscape changed. Suddenly, our entire team could participate in the journey, dispersing requests, approvals, and receipts with ease and efficiency. The platform didn't just save time; it unveiled a new world of options, allowing us to explore multiple suppliers, discover hidden deals, and seamlessly upload quotes. The result? A transformed and collaborative procurement process.”

“ZAGENO has been key in our transition to self-service purchasing with Coupa. By consolidating all non-catalog spend within ZAGENO, we’ve automated a previously manual process leading to both time and operational savings. Notably, we’ve eliminated supplier onboarding (for lab consumables), reduced invoice processing, and are able to access the best price for each item.”

“ZAGENO is a leader in that it has the most suppliers and SKUs of any marketplace we looked at.”

“Now we know that we can look to solutions like ZAGENO for quick turnaround of the products and still realize savings, which is the DNA of the procurement function. So, there are opportunities in which we can combine the costs savings, the technology, or digital transformation and availability of the scientist.”

“In my previous company I was the sole person in charge of procurement. I was setting up all the vendors. I was placing all the orders from all the vendors and managing all of that on my own. I understand the benefits of the [ZAGENO] platform firsthand and the scientists doing the ordering saw immediate improvement to their ordering processes.”

“The ability to not have 5 different PO’s for each order has completely changed my life as a researcher and saved time in so many ways!”

“ZAGENO is great, I love using the platform and working with them. Procurement is not a problem anymore thanks to ZAGENO”

With Zageno we decreased invoice volume by 80 – 90% overall which significantly reduces AP time I consume.

“We were small, we are growing, it’s fast. We're trying not to break things, and to set up systems that will support our continued growth and development - ZAGENO was one of the early ones.”

“Streamlining new vendor setups and invoice consolidation were the two core reasons we signed with ZAGENO.For both R&D and Finance, ZAGENO has streamlined the procurement process and allowed for ownership on the R&D team to get what they want and be happy.”

"Finding even the simple things like freezers can be quite difficult when you are bulk ordering. ZAGENO made us able to diversify our portfolio a little bit if you will which has been instrumental in us actually getting things on site when we need them."

"Zageno is really an important partnership for us. It has improved our lab consumable/reagent purchasing process significantly. It has also give the users visibility on their orders and provided alternatives."
