CTB Charity Auction

5.0 4 years ago

Comments: My overall experience was amazing! In my first meeting we quickly established everything we needed to get in place & within only a few days I received a version of the graphic design for the system & for the interface along with the initial Auction List layout. The catalogue design was also absolutely second to none! I made a number of changes to lots & prices but nothing was ever too much trouble & all of these changes were made promptly! I felt that Market DOJO has really listened to what I needed & as a result there were very few design or layout amendments which made for a smooth run. The way that [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] managed the project really was outstanding - always keeping me updated with progress & sending me To Do lists of what was left. It was a total breath of fresh air to work with a company who cares so much about its clients & ensures that the maximum quality project was delivered. The result of the auction was £6300 raised which was totally amazing & we thank Market DOJO again. Thanks, Lucy Chatting

Pros:

The software was really easy to use for the auction in terms of managing the auction lots, editing the lots & setting reserve pricing. It was also very easy to contact the bidders either one by one or as a group throughout the auction. Messages also came back easily. Any IT issues we had were also logged via the software & amended really quickly. It was also great for reviewing the latest & highest bids & placing new bids. The design, layout & look & feel were second to none & I received many comments about this.

Cons:

It is hard for us to say as we were lucky enough to be able to use this software free of charge for the charity. I personally think it would be good to show images of the lots on the auction & also to show current highest bids for all lots even if you havent bid on it. Finally it would be good to notify bidders when they get outbid.

Hi Lucy, Thanks so much for taking the time to leave a review.It was a pleasure working with you & Carter The Brave.We're delighted to have been able to play a part in raising such a fantastic amount for Birmingham Children's Hospital and The Carter The Brave Research Foundation. Many thanks for your suggestions, these are the reviews we appreciate most as we love to know how we can improve. We now have a development ticket to display the current highest bids as you have mentioned. We also have a ticket on sending email notifications when a participant is outranked during an auction.This is displayed in the live feed above the auction, however we realise it could be made more obvious.We will do our best to address this.Finally due to the nature of our general use, an image for each lot is not often needed, however we have taken your feedback onboard as a future idea. A work around is using the 'Documents' tab where images & other documents can be uploaded. Thanks again MD

Using Market Dojo

5.0 6 years ago

Pros:

At Emaar, with tens of sourcing events every week, we are very grateful how Market Dojo helps us in being more effective. With such an easy to use system, our procurement team creates quickly and easily RFQs, RFIs and various Reverse Auctions events. Additionally, the Supplier Onboarding portal saved us hours and hours of work by automating the pre-qualification process for any new vendor. Over the years, the platform has helped us to build a constructive and transparent relationship with our vendors and generate substantial savings on our procurement costs. One more thing we appreciated, every time we had a request for a new feature, the team at Market Dojo engaged in a constructive conversation and for most of our requests, they built the required improvement in no time. Last but not least, the support team is absolutely fabulous. Anytime we or any of our vendors had a question, the team responded and resolved any issues promptly. It’s such a pleasure working with the team at Market Dojo.

Cons:

Great tool to track interaction with suppliers, only suggestion would be to integrate more advanced features to manage the Contracts with the suppliers, but I heard they are already working on it.

Review on MD e-sourcing

4.0 6 years ago

Pros:

Easy to use. It’s not take long time to create a tender on the system.

Cons:

It is not flexible to adjust information. For example, if the bidders type wrong name of company, they cannot change after signing in.

Thank you very much for the review. We are very pleased to have you as one of our customers. We continually strive to improve and we currently have the functionality for users to change their company name and details through the support function.

Very good experience with Market Dojo

4.0 6 years ago

Comments: Great experience in using Market Dojo with brilliant and quick support. This is a smart tool which simplifies a lot the process for complex projects! I am sure the tool will grow even more in the future, assuring it a great future and success.

Pros:

The team and support is really great, always trying to find the solution which is the best for your business. The simplicity, it is not overcomplicated, do the job well and you do not need to spend ages to build your events The improvements which are released regularly and take customer remarks into consideration The "Sandpit" tool which allows you to test your event as if you were a bidder and adjust accordingly, in live. Project stakeholders can access event you want to share with them, and you can also include access restrictions The different ways to access the content (Documents repository, into the event question directly, via Excel download, etc... )

Cons:

The scoring for an event with a lot of questions and bidders since so far I believe scoring is only possible per bidder rather than per question across all the bidders, to keep the same scoring logic.

Market Dojo Response

6 years ago

Hi there, Thank you for your review and feedback. We are pleased that you like our ease of use and the ability to test in the sandpit feature. You are quite right, at the moment scoring is only possible by bidder and not by question. This is however something that we currently have in our pipeline to rectify. We will certainly be in touch once this issue has been resolved. Thanks again for the review. Kind regards, Alun Rafique, CEO Co-Founder

An innovative, powerful eSourcing tool that gives buyers absolute control over their tenders.

5.0 7 years ago

Pros:

Market Dojo has offered me excellent flexibility and customer support to personally operate two RFPs. I have been able to set as many questions as I like, with virtually no restrictions on the parameters set for bidders to answer to ensure that I obtain only the information I require. Incidentally, a lot of bidders commented they preferred this as it allowed them to reduce the work required to submit bids. I love the fact that I could copy and paste the structure of a previous tenders to avoid having to construct new tenders. It saves so much time and enabled my organisation to continually improve the tenders it puts out to market without having to start from scratch. Lastly, Market Dojo's customer support is excellent. They offer a website chat function and email support during office hours and regularly follow up on queries I make out of hours. I always receive personalised, solutions orientated feedback. Market Dojo's owners and employees are clearly very proud of their product and took a keen interest in ensuring I got the best out of its features.

Cons:

It requires training, quite a bit actually to learn how to operate various features. The website would benefit from short video blogs showing how to use Market Dojo's features. Once an RFP is launched, it is very difficult to change it so, it needs to be tested prior to an RFP being issued.

Great customer service

5.0 4 years ago

Pros:

Customer Service is awesome. [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] is always very helpful.

Cons:

For our suppliers to go in and register, they have a hard time navigating and tell me often that it's not very clear or user-friendly. I don't like when I am updating the COI by Proxy for the supplier, that it goes back into the whole approval process again even though they are already approved.

Market Dojo Response

4 years ago

Thank you very much for your kind review and feedback Nancy. We are taking steps to make the sign-up process more intuitive for suppliers who have been previously invited. I hope this will help and you should see the first parts of this update coming in the next month. We have also recently made changes so that you will not go back through the workflow when documents are updated on suppliers who have already been onboarded. Hopefully this will save you some time too.

Flexible & time saving program

5.0 6 years ago

Comments: From the support team, through to our personal Market dojo manager, the experience of using this platform was always a positive experience.
It was a pleasure to work with Market dojo to achieve our online Auctioning targets, which was a success. The platform was easy for our many suppliers to access and use, with straight forward functions. The reporting tools and summaries created afterwards were quick and easy to download allowing for strong analysis of any Auction we ran.

Pros:

A very easy and straight forward online Auctioning platform allowing our company to manage our many items to be Auctioned successfully.

Cons:

None to comment on as we did not have a negative experience using this platform

Effective, no frills

4.0 4 years ago

Comments: We have been using MarketDojo for several e-sourcing events, from simple to complex ones. The client / customer support team is very effective, and the tool is basic, but gets the job done without needing to invest significant amounts of money for larger suites.
It is worth to invest some time in thinking through the event structure, to avoid extra workload in the analysis/awarding phases.

Pros:

Customer Support: very responsive, always going the extra mile to help setting up and managing any e-sourcing event.

Cons:

Some steps required to set up an e-sourcing event are not so straightforward. Awarding: rather basic.

Dojo for Paddy Power Betfair

4.0 6 years ago

Comments: Dojo have helped us greatly in rolling out our Procurement systems strategy. They have offered us agile, easy to acquire, value for money solutions for tasks like Category planning and eRFx. Their tools are also easily shared with our operations around the world, assisting us in globalising our Procurement service.

Pros:

- Extremely agile - very easy to acquire and use - Excellent value for money - low investment required - Top class customer support - 2nd to none

Cons:

No negative comments to make. The effort and investment required to get started with Dojo solutions is so small relative to other solutions that any "downside" would be quickly forgiven. Yet, we haven't seen any to-date.

Delivering Savings and Value

4.0 5 years ago

Comments: We worked with Market Dojo for many years and Market Dojo have always given support and were quick to respond when requested.

Pros:

The Market Dojo platform offers an easy to use space for suppliers to register, participate and communicate directly through the platform. We have successfully used this platform to manage our tenders and eAuctions to deliver value and savings for our clients.

Cons:

The post event analysis functionality is limited, particularly where there are multiple lots and scenario requirements.

Buying Made Simple

5.0 7 years ago

Comments: Customers like the results it delivers

Pros:

The ultimate in flexibility and configurability - easy to set up and gives instant feedback to bidders so encourages participation. Different types of auction also drives competition and costs down. Clients really like the transparency.

Cons:

No real cons with this software as it was intuitive to use from day one - we had to set up the lot matrix to allow us to do what we needed but once set up it was very easy to use.

Easy to use and highly effective in the mining space

5.0 3 years ago

Comments: Our company used Market Dojo to run multiple RFPs across an array of categories simultaneously at an African mine. The platform is intuitive, powerful and supported by great customer service.

Pros:

Market Dojo proved to be easy to use, customisable and highly effective in the mining space. Our procurement team was up and running within a week of deciding to use Market Dojo, developing customised RFPs to meet the specific needs of the mine. Market Dojo also comes with customer support of the highest quality. All questions were answered within minutes of being posed to [SENSITIVE CONTENT] and the Market Dojo team.

Cons:

None which we came across. The whole process was smooth from start to finish.

Vita's Experience

4.0 5 years ago

Comments: I am very happy with Market Dojo, as I was introduced to it at my last place of work and felt it fulfilled a new requirement at my current place of work and, along with the updates and tweaks since, it has not been hard to convince my superiors why this platform is great.

Pros:

The ease of use is always a positive when implementing a new software, and the clear instructions throughout the process aided the transition. All aspects of the program are neatly presented, and provides a platform that all can use, meaning less resistance to change.

Cons:

Aspects of the lots could be improved by increasing the decimal place points within the simple lot, along with providing a more comprehensive final report

You can white label the product too to make it look in line with your corporate branding.

Hi Dougal, Thank you for taking the time to provide some feedback on our Souring tool. I am really pleased to hear you experienced some fantastic customer support & live assistance throughout your events. This is testament to our ability to support worldwide which is great to see. Also great to see that the solution was able to help expedite the negotiation process. Regarding the auction set up, I understand you were provided with some consultancy from our experienced Account Managers who suggested the best way to approach the event by consolidating some of the data in order to optimise supplier engagement. For any future events we would always be happy to review how to approach before going live. We hope you found the guidance useful. Kind Regards, Alun Rafique - CEO & Co Founder, Market Dojo Ltd

And the most important is that the customer support is great, they always available to questions (skype, mail) and they return with answers very fast.

Pros:

My favorite thing is that the system is very easy to use, and in a few hours you can be an expert in the system. Also, it is easy to learn new features in the system.

Cons:

In order to add additional categories for the suppliers ranking, for example - quality, suppliers had to fill out a questionnaire. which is an Indirect solution to the problem.
