On demand is of course where it is at for the SMB segment. Companies like Coupa offers an excellent feature set when related to the price tag.

One issue I would imagine SMBs struggle with is the actual value assessment and ROI calculations associated with buying into eprocurement. This is of course a classic catch-22 since the needed input might be missing due to lack of visibility in the procurement area.

At the very least this insight is exactly what you will get from eprocurement so there really are no reasons not to go for it in my opinion.
