Mittral vs SitelyPO
SitelyPO is built for construction companies: a foreman raises a PO on site against a project and cost code, a manager approves it with the job budget alongside, and on higher plans it syncs to accounting software. Mittral is for any small or mid-sized team that wants each purchase request routed by amount to the right approvers, then sent to the supplier as a numbered purchase order.
SitelyPO: purchase orders for construction teams, where foremen write POs on their phones, managers approve them from anywhere and vendors get the order by email. [4]

| Self-approval blocked | Nobody can approve a request they raised, even if they are an approver on its path. | Not stated on their site. [2] |
| Approver away | An approver, or an admin for them, marks the days they are away. Requests move on to the next approver on the path or to super users, or to a colleague an admin names to cover, who decides with the away approver’s limit. | Not stated on their site. [2] |

Approved POs also sync to accounting software. [3] |

Choose Mittral if
- You want approvals routed by amount today, with each approver’s limit deciding how far a request travels, rather than one approval step.
- Requesters must never sign off their own purchases, and approvers who are away need their requests to keep moving.
- You buy for more than one company or site and need each entity’s legal name, address and VAT number on its orders.
- You want more people on the free and entry plans: Mittral’s free plan includes more users than SitelyPO’s, and its cheapest paid plan costs less and includes more users.
- You want to revise, resend or cancel an issued order and keep its history on the request.
Choose SitelyPO if
- You run construction jobs and want POs raised against projects and cost codes, with committed spend shown against each job budget.
- You want POs to sync with accounting software, which SitelyPO includes on Professional plans and up and Mittral does not offer.
- Your foremen raise POs on site from a phone and you want each one tied to a project and cost code.
- You need a high monthly PO volume for the price: SitelyPO’s Business plan includes 750 POs a month.
- You prefer to pay yearly: SitelyPO gives two months free on annual billing.
In short
SitelyPO is shaped around construction: project budgets, cost codes and a sync to accounting software, with a single approval step today. Mittral is a general purchasing workflow with approval by amount across several approvers, separate buying entities and controls on who can approve what, without job costing or an accounting connection. Pick the one that matches how your purchases are agreed.
