Strong governance over SaaS procurement and expenses !
What do you like best about the product?
What I appreciate most about Najar is the full visibility they give us across all of our SaaS tools. It helps us avoid duplicates or forgotten applications, and the automatic reminders for renewals and upcoming deadlines are a real relief.
They also support us with our RFPs by handling the follow-up, consolidating inputs, scheduling meetings, and keeping the timeline under control. Everything is much more structured now, and our purchasing process has become significantly smoother.

What do you dislike about the product?
At this stage, there is nothing in particular to report. Everything is progressing as expected, and we have not encountered any issues or points of concern so far.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Najar has helped us regain full control over all of our contracts. Previously, it was difficult to keep track of everything, which could lead to duplicate subscriptions or missed renewals. Today, everything is centralized, and the alerts allow us to anticipate upcoming deadlines. We have also implemented a truly structured purchasing process, which helps us avoid overconsumption and makes decision-making much easier.
Great Service with Clear, Easy-to-Measure ROI
What do you like best about the product?
They provide a great service that saves us, time, money, and peace of mind. With an ROI very easy to assess
What do you dislike about the product?
Their web app is sometimes a bit counterintuitive and hard to use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
They help us negotiate with our vendors. Whether this is in the event of a RfP or during a renegotiation.
Responsive Follow-Up and Great Pricing That Keeps Renewals on Track
What do you like best about the product?
Najar is always following up with us and our vendors to make sure renewals and new products arrive on time. They consistently get us good prices and proactively help us find new resellers that might offer even better deals. Their responsiveness and dedication to keeping everything on track is what we value most.
What do you dislike about the product?
The web application could use some improvements. The interface and user experience have room to grow, and enhancing the platform would make it even easier to manage procurement and track orders efficiently.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Najar helps us manage vendor renewals and new product procurement efficiently. By following up with both us and vendors, they ensure nothing falls through the cracks and everything arrives on time. Importantly, they make sure we negotiate renewals ahead of time, so contracts don't get auto-renewed without us having a chance to negotiate better terms. They also help us find competitive pricing and identify new resellers, which benefits us by reducing costs and simplifying our procurement process.
Expert Team and Procurement Know-How That Elevate Every Negotiation
What do you like best about the product?
What I value most about Najar is actually not the technology itself, but the people and the expertise behind it.
I agree with some of the previous reviews that the platform still has room to improve from a technology perspective. That said, my experience has been that Najar is very responsive to customer feedback and genuinely listens to pain points. I’ve seen a lot of development happen recently, and through my account team it’s clear that more improvements are already in progress.
What really sets Najar apart for me is the knowledge and skill of their software buyers. The biggest value comes from the ability to tailor the objective and negotiation strategy case by case, depending on what outcome we want to achieve. That flexibility and expertise is far more important to me than the platform alone.
In my view, the technology is an advanced vehicle that supports the process, but the real value comes from the people, the market knowledge, and the procurement capability they bring to each negotiation.

What do you dislike about the product?
Maybe their technology, in its current state, isn’t best in class.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Their skills and know-how in the software buying space are mission-critical for us. On top of that, it frees up our time when they go out and do the heavy lifting.

Hands-On, High-Quality Support and a Smooth Collaboration
What do you like best about the product?

Najar: smoother SaaS purchasing management, with real savings from the first year
What do you like best about the product?
What I find particularly interesting about Najar is the overall impact of the solution on SaaS purchase management. Since its implementation, we save time on contract management and, most importantly, we no longer miss any deadlines for renegotiating our contracts, which also leads to better expense organization. Their expertise in purchasing truly makes a difference: we have been able to save tens of thousands of euros thanks to the proposal of new partners or simply by having the information on what discounts can be obtained from various SaaS vendors.
The platform is intuitive and easy to use, which facilitates its adoption by the teams. Moreover, customer support is responsive and always available to assist us when needed.
Today, our tracking of tools and renewals is perfectly managed, and our purchasing process is significantly more fluid and structured.

What do you dislike about the product?
There is still a lack of granularity in the roles that can be assigned to different team members. Currently, there are 3 possible roles: Admin, Coordinator, Requester.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Thanks to Najar, we finally have a clear and centralized view of all our contracts. Previously, each department managed its renewals on its own and on Excel. No one had a clear view of the overall expenses and the tracking was complex, which sometimes led to forgotten renewals. Now, everything is gathered in one place and the notifications allow us to calmly anticipate each renewal.
Availability and efficiency of buyers: a real time saver
What do you like best about the product?
The availability and efficiency of the buyers are truly commendable. The meeting schedules are well managed, which means we do not waste time.
What do you dislike about the product?
We do not have any particular difficulties.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Negotiation of purchases of SaaS or subscription solutions.
Since Najar is not involved in the long-term relationship with our suppliers, their buyers remain focused on a single objective: optimizing the purchase. In this respect, they are both relevant and efficient. They significantly relieve our teams of a substantial burden, while providing expertise that we do not have internally.

Better framed, faster purchases
What do you like best about the product?
Najar saves us time daily with a clear interface, quick setup, and a very responsive team. We have good visibility on our purchases and the tracking is smooth, with real support when we need it.
What do you dislike about the product?
Overall very satisfied. On the margin, some advanced features could be even more customizable, but the team is attentive and improvements arrive quickly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Najar helps us absorb peaks in activity and outsource certain purchasing tasks when necessary, without losing quality. They bring method, speed of execution, and a good level of rigor in sourcing, competition, negotiation, and monitoring. Result: less internal workload, shorter cycles, and better supplier conditions.
