Wyn vs. Vertice: Choosing the Right Procurement Support for Your Team.

As software spend continues to rise, procurement has become a more visible and strategic part of how organizations operate. Teams are no longer focused solely on reducing costs; they’re trying to understand what they’re buying, why they’re buying it, and how to get the most value from those decisions. Many procurement providers address different challenges, some organizations are tracking software and spending, while others focus on getting the best deal in negotiations.

Two providers often considered in this space are Wyn and Vertice. While they’re sometimes compared directly, they’re best understood as serving different needs, depending on which challenge a team is trying to solve first.

Vertice: Helping Procurement Get Organized

Vertice is ideal for organizations with limited visibility into their software landscape. By consolidating contracts from inboxes, shared drives, and multiple teams, it helps companies understand what tools they’re paying for, how much they’re spending, and when renewals are due. Vertice often negotiates directly with vendors, reducing workload for teams still building internal procurement processes, and its subscription-based model provides consistent access to tools and support. This makes Vertice a strong foundation for procurement teams still getting organized.

Wyn: Support for Procurement Ready to Save Money

Wyn is designed for organizations that already have a clear view of their software stack and costs. Rather than procurement discovery and orchestration, Wyn focuses on getting you the best possible deal with your software vendors. Specifically, Wyn gives you vendor-ready scripts written by former sales leaders of the vendors you’re negotiating with. You remain the face of the negotiations, so you stay in control and maintain the vendor relationships. Wyn’s fee model is “no savings, no fee”, meaning zero risk and guaranteed ROI.

How Different Models Show Up for Buyers

Another area where procurement providers vary is in how their services are structured and paid for. Some teams prefer subscription-based models that provide consistent access to tools and support, particularly when procurement processes are still being established. Other approaches place more emphasis on outcomes, with fees tied to realized results rather than platform access alone. For buyers, this can shape how risk, flexibility and value are experienced over time. Models that link cost more closely to outcomes tend to appeal to organizations that already have visibility into their software spend and are focused on improving results at key moments, such as renewal or upsell negotiations.

Choosing The Right Procurement Partner

Choosing the right procurement partner isn’t about finding a universally “better” solution. It’s about finding the right fit for where your procurement team is today. Vertice can be a strong starting point for organizations that need visibility and structure. Wyn is often the preferred partner for teams that already have good visibility into their software stack and want better deals with their vendors. As needs evolve, it’s common for procurement strategies, and partners, to evolve too.

If your team is ready to maximize software value and take control of vendor relationships, learn how Wyn can help you get the best possible price in every negotiation.
