Coupa is a Cloud-based spend management solution that assists firms in managing payments, supply chain, and procurement procedures. It enables businesses to become more resilient, have a better understanding of their spending, and turn financial obstacles into opportunities.  

Coupa delivers three mandatory releases every year, as well as additional enhancements throughout the year. Companies can also customize these updates to meet their specific requirements.
