The purchasing function is very good - tracking and linking parts to sales orders, shortage reports, and part summaries.

This platform is a pretty decent platform that
has all the required facilities which makes it a good platform for the users. I
would recommend this software to businesses because this is not too hefty in
their pockets and this can be pretty affordable for many. Also, it works quite
efficiently and effectively.

Cons
  • Reporting: Many of the reports that are provided for free with Fishbowl are useless in the context of everyday manufacturing and production planning. Some reports provide inaccurate information. In order to use get useful and correct reports, outside developers must be paid (a new or modified report may cost anywhere from $150 to $2000)
  • Customer service can be hit or miss. In our experience, a knowledgeable person is rarely available, but for the most part customer service has no idea how real manufacturing works to provide reasonable answers to fix Fishbowl shortfalls.

  • There are certain deprivations associated with Webgility. Some of them are that it does not answer phones or emails. I feel that the concept of Webgility is great, but at the same time, you have to know exactly what to do in order for the system to work properly, effectively, and efficiently.
  • In the beginning, I felt it was complicated software, so it took time to learn. Since then the experience has been smooth and good.

Support Rating
Originally the support for Fishbowl was very poor. It was hard to get anyone to help. In the last 12 - 14 months, it has greatly improved and if it continues this way I would certainly rate it higher.

Alternatives Considered
Fishbowl could be tailored to accommodate our needs and to integrate with other providers to offer the seamless work flow. Others that I investigated were much more expensive or couldn't do the tasks we were requiring. The final analysis was that Fishbowl offered a cost effective way for us to manage our business

Webgility is an Omnichannel Retail Suite for businesses offering ease and control. They have a secure concept of several layers of safety for business processes integrated. The stock reporting can be used in real-time or in history, and for planning. There is a versatile interface or integration into API for eCommerce markets and POS that is rich and can be customized with ease. Webgility offers great customer service facilities with plenty of adaptable features. That is a big range of features that can be researched with competitors. We had Multiorders, Zoho Inventory, Quickbook Desktop Enterprise in consideration. We see Multiorders coming closest. They have a great integration in various channels for sale and enable management of all kinds of orders including shipping. There is a comfortable part for the management of inventories too. Then we see Zoho Inventory which is easy to set up and seemingly more usable and comfortable to administrate. In the third position, we compare QuickBooks Online as the closest competitor. This offers similar ease in all processes of accounting. Everything is all in one place and close to real-time. The differences are small. There are different targets for optimization that make the difference
