    Like I previously mentioned, this software fits our needs right now because it allows us to control inventory and remove items when needed from our participating retailer's websites. The price is reasonable. Our traffic and shipping teams have also used this software to create fewer touch points in shipping and make the process more digital. That has been a big winner for us. You'll definitely want an internal IT team to support this software. The implementation process is long and tedious and you will need to restructure to fit your needs. That is difficult to do when you are a smaller business with cross-functional employees.

    If you have complicated internal warehouse movements or you have large area where you handle internal logistics, this tool is very useful to coordinate those actions. You can define and configure it to your liking and make it as detail as you need. In case you do not have that should not consider this module.

    Cons
    IBM
    • Not able to export lists to excel. This is a big negative for me personally. It makes it harder and more time consuming to clean up accounts.
    • Doesn't warn you if the same sender and receiver code are on another list.
    • The dashboard is not the best. The next button that you would assume takes you to the next page actually doesn't, it ends up showing past interactions with the software. You have to click on the tiny numbers at the top to navigate. Super annoying. Not very user-friendly or appealing to the eye.

    Could be better GUI, Fiori will help... Due to our customizations, it's hard to upgrade and to migrate to RISE.

    We are using Max attention, which is a perfect (but costly) extension for prod support.

    Return on Investment
    IBM
    • The overall impact has been good for us and I do feel like the software is worth the money they just need to do a lot of updating and making the software more user-friendly.
    • As a ecommerce account manager, it is important that we are able to remove and add items quickly to our retailer sites. This software has allowed us to do that.
    • Would like to see a more knowledgeable support staff that are able to work through issues in a timely matter.

    • We just started to use it so the benefits are not yet clearly visible
    • In the future I see that we can save work hours when we get all the functionalities working as we want
