SourceDay vs Logistify AI for Purchase Order Follow-Up (2026)
Who should choose which
Choose SourceDay if you are a manufacturer on Epicor, Infor, NetSuite or Acumatica with many direct-material suppliers and want a supplier portal and network that writes dates, quantities and prices back to your ERP, with an 8 to 12 week implementation. Choose Logistify AI if you are on QuickBooks Desktop and want suppliers chased for you by email, with no portal, changes waiting for your buyer, and accepted arrival dates written back to QuickBooks Desktop. SourceDay doesn't list a QuickBooks integration.
Side by side
| SourceDay | Logistify AI | |
|---|---|---|
| What you buy | An AI-driven supplier portal and network, with agents that chase open orders and handle changes; your buyers set the rules | A managed service: Logistify asks suppliers for dates, reads their replies and records what they promised; your buyers decide the changes |

| What's written to the ERP | Dates, quantities and prices, including split deliveries | Only the accepted arrival date; quantity and price changes are never written back |

QuickBooks Desktop: the biggest difference
SourceDay's certified ERP partners are Acumatica, Epicor, Infor and NetSuite, and QuickBooks isn't on its integrations list. Logistify pulls vendors, items, open purchase orders and receipts from QuickBooks Desktop, including Enterprise, follows up with each supplier by email, and writes the accepted arrival date back to the purchase order's expected date. Your buyer approves every supplier email until you switch on automatic sending.
