Gatekeeper Problems

Why Smart Companies Choose a Gatekeeper Alternative

Contracts Only Platform

Gatekeeper emphasizes pure CLM functionality. Zapro offers a comprehensive CLM combined with the full Procure to Pay P2P lifecycle, connecting legal documents to financial transactions.

No AP Workflows

Gatekeeper provides no tools for processing invoices, matching them to contracts, managing payment approvals, or executing payments. Zapro automates all Accounts Payable AP steps end to end.

Limited Procurement Tools

Gatekeeper lacks essential Procurement processes like Purchase Orders POs, Purchase Requisitions PRs, and formal spending control. Zapro delivers complete, compliant procurement automation.

Basic Vendor Controls

Zapro offers robust Vendor Management including automated onboarding, compliance checks, risk scoring, and holistic lifecycle management beyond simple contract filing.

No Spend Analytics

Gatekeeper lacks real time budgets, committed spend data, and comprehensive Spend Analytics. Zapro provides the dashboards needed for proactive financial control.

Expensive for Scaling Teams

Gatekeeper often charges based on the number of contracts or users, leading to unpredictable costs. Zapro offers straightforward, transparent pricing that scales reliably with your business needs.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is Zapro different from Gatekeeper for vendor management?

Gatekeeper focuses primarily on Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM)—storing and tracking legal documents. Zapro, however, manages the full Vendor Lifecycle, integrating CLM with financial processes. This means Zapro handles the entire process: vendor onboarding, risk and compliance checks, contract association, creating Purchase Orders (POs) against the contract, processing the invoice (AP), and final payment.

Can Zapro replace the need for both a CLM tool and a separate Accounts Payable (AP) system?

Yes. Zapro is a unified Procure to Pay (P2P) platform that includes robust contract management (CLM) capabilities along with full AP Automation. This consolidation eliminates data silos and manual handoffs, allowing you to create POs from contracts and automatically match and process invoices.

Does Zapro allow us to enforce contract terms when making a purchase?

Absolutely. Zapro links the contract directly to the procurement process. When a user creates a Purchase Requisition (PR) or Purchase Order (PO), Zapro can automatically check and enforce terms defined in the contract, ensuring that the purchasing amount and frequency are compliant, which provides crucial real-time spend visibility and control.
