Rymera Wholesale Suite vs. Shopify Plus

Rymera Wholesale Suite is well suited for when you would like to onboard and sell products to retail and wholesale clients on the same platform. If only selling retail, it is likely not suitable, however, the onboarding registration plugin could be a nice alternative to the standard website registration due to its custom fields that could be added.

Shopify Plus makes order management simple and less error prone. Connecting our ERP allows us to seamlessly manage our product listings, fulfill orders, and sync customer data. Limitations to the number of product variants requires attention from our staff to make sure our products sync without issue. Other than being arbitrary, there's really no need to limit the number of product variants.

• Easy to use order form

• Scales incredibly well. Forget about hardware concerns, load balancing, downtime, etc. and focus on eCommerce. We've seen merchants go from a few thousand dollars per month to having million dollar days, all on Shopify without having to worry about performance or scaling systems.
• Great new features consistently being added, ahead of the curve on almost everything
• Solid API to build on and work with, a few annoying quirks here and there for super complex use cases but overall very well documented and works well
• Most Merchant Success Managers are good and genuinely want to be helpful
• A fantastic user interface, very logical and easy to use
• Tons and tons and tons of out of the box integrations. Easily the best integration marketplace of the e-commerce platforms. There's an app for that.

• I'd like to be able to add products to existing orders at wholesale price (if I add a product it is added at retail price)
• A built in deposit function would be good so I have the option to request a 50% deposit at the time of ordering
• The option of wholesale purchases not affecting inventory. I have to have separate versions for each product (retail and pre-order/wholesale) because wholesale orders affect the current inventory

• The Account Managers/Reps have become more scripted and seem like they are busier and handling more clients than before. It doesn't seem as personal and special anymore like when we first upgraded to Plus.
• Shopify still has missing features in their software that might not have an app in their app marketplace available that fills this void.
• The 24/7 support doesn't seem as dedicated as they once were.

Shopify Plus is intutive as stated previously. It's easy to find what we want and edit (reports, products, online store theme, etc...) You dont need to have a ton of coding experience to be able to get a website up and running on Shopify Plus. The reason I wont give a 10/10 and gave an 8 is because I do think it is heavily realiant on app and it can open up a can of worms with the amout of apps that are out there, their costs, and which one to chose. There are also some internal limitations as stated previously with discounts and personalized message for different customer groups. But overall, it is a good platform that I recommend.

I've tried several wholesale plugins and always cancelled my subscription and gotten our money back. This is the first wholesale plugin we've stuck with. It's so easy and functional

Shopify Plus is an all in one service. You are able to keep track of invoices and payments. Shopify Plus also offers options for shipping and connects your tracking number to you order which allows for easy tracking. Your tracking number is also a link which makes it even easier.

• We are still setting up, our wholesale side store is opening next week, very excited, will only then know if it works well.

• Definitely makes selling on multiple platforms easy, saving us time and effort.
• Keeps all of our business in one place, saving us money on other apps to manage each aspect.
• Automatically flags potential fraudulent orders, preventing us from accidentally shipping to a scam.
• During our busiest months, we don't see any slowdowns, which allows us to go full throttle with all ads and marketing without worrying about whether or not the software can handle it.
